In testing with real parents and kids · live demo (message me for the code — not trying to burn through my credits yet 🙂)
Type any topic and Pip turns it into a short, interactive journey a 4–6 year-old can follow, with their parent guiding along the way.
I wanted parents to feel more connected to their kids on a screen, instead of guilty about raising an "iPad kid." There's endless kids' content on YouTube, but it isn't interactive, and it doesn't get a parent and kid thinking through something together. YouTube is designed to keep you watching. Pip's is designed so you walk away feeling like you actually learned something.
The whole thing is one interactive journey: take any question or topic and break it down so a 4–6 year-old can understand it, with the parent guiding along the way. Success isn't time-on-app. It's whether the kid, and the parent, learned one real thing.
I built all of it, from Pip (the little chick who guides each episode) to the grounding harness underneath. The harness pulls from trustworthy public sources first — libraries, museums, .gov resources — and only falls back to Wikipedia as a last resort. Honestly, it leans on Wikipedia more than I'd like right now; tightening that source mix is the next thing on the list.
It's in testing with real parents and kids right now. The prototype uses emojis for the visuals while I validate the core idea, before putting money into richer art.
