For Parents
Child profiles, screen-time controls, and progress tracking — everything you need to support learning at home.
Tools built for grown-ups
Tinker Playground gives you the controls to keep screen time healthy and the visibility to cheer kids on as they learn.
Up to 5 child profiles
Give each kid their own profile with a name and avatar. Progress, streaks, and levels are tracked separately for every child.
Screen-time controls
Set per-child daily and per-session limits, allowed time-of-day windows, and school-day blocks. Play pauses automatically when the limit is reached.
Break reminders
Gentle "take a break" nudges during play at an interval you choose — good for eyes, posture, and focus.
Kid-safe by design
No third-party ad tracking. Kids sign in with a simple parent-set PIN — no email or personal details required.
Follow their progress
See time spent, accuracy, and skill growth for each child from the Parent Portal, plus optional weekly summaries.
Adaptive by default
Our math engine meets every learner at their level — never too hard, never too easy — so kids stay challenged and confident.

Family listening guide
Make the most of Tinker Playground podcasts together — three simple habits.
Listen together
Play an episode in the car or at dinner. Our STEM podcasts are made for curious kids aged 7–12 and the grown-ups with them.
Try the activity
Most episodes pair with a hands-on activity. Turn what you heard into a quick experiment at the kitchen table.
Talk about it
Ask your child what surprised them, then share a fun fact of your own. A minute of conversation makes it stick.
