By Captain Kidoova · November 3, 2026 · 2 min read ## Start with what your child wants If they ask to do the same activity again, ask what they’d like to keep or change. Perhaps they enjoyed making the choices, want another turn at a game, or didn’t finish last time. You don’t need to steer them toward an uncompleted activity just to fill in the library. ## Change the situation if it helps A child who enjoyed planning a snack could help plan a picnic. A question practiced at home might be useful at a familiar club. Offer the change and let them decide. Repeating the original version is also fine; every repeat doesn’t have to become harder. ## Understand the points The current Kidoova library has 15 activities for each age group. Each first recorded completion adds 10 practice points: up to 30 for each of the five skills and 150 across the library. Repeating an activity doesn’t add another completion. Mood answers and notes don’t change the award. Earlier saved points remain visible separately. ## Keep the record in perspective Those totals describe what you’ve recorded in the app. They aren’t a measure of confidence or a target every family needs to reach. Use a note if there’s something you want to remember, and leave it blank if there isn’t. The parent guide explains how to choose and revisit activities without making the app the focus. ## Further reading * [Harvard Center on the Developing Child: Brain-Building Through Play](https://developingchild.harvard.edu/resources/handouts-tools/brainbuildingthroughplay/) These sources offer broader background.

The current library has 15 activities adapted for ages 3–5, 6–9, and 10–13. Families can practice making decisions, trying again, talking with others, exploring interests and strengths, and handling worries. Public articles and the parent guide are available without signing in. A parent account saves child profiles, completed activities, optional notes, and practice points. ## Why we matter ### Activities families can use without pressure Kidoova gives parents clear instructions for activities they can try with their child in ordinary family life. The approach is to choose together, offer useful help without taking over, and talk about what happened afterward. Children can watch, ask for help, stop, or revisit a favorite. Parents do not need to finish the library or maintain a streak. Practice totals record activity use; they do not measure confidence, rank children, diagnose a condition, or establish a clinical outcome. ## What we offer ### Always\-free activities, parent guide, and parenting articles Kidoova is always free to use, with no subscription required.
