One calm world, many trails to explore
In Curious Trails children practise early maths, language, writing, telling the time, listening, patterns, animals, colours and everyday skills. Everything happens in one warm, illustrated world with five areas they can walk through at their own pace.
Every activity comes with spoken instructions that can be replayed with one tap. Children who can’t read on their own yet can still understand what to do.

Designed for children. Reassuring for parents.
Behind a parent gate you set up a profile with a nickname and age group, and choose the language of the app. The age group helps pick a good first activity; every world stays open to explore.
Curious Trails is designed so that children can find their own way around, but it is just as much fun to play together. Many activities invite you to listen, count or talk about a picture side by side.
