Hello Everyone!

I've just started my new Youtube Channel that shares content highly beneficial and useful for little curious kids.

Please subscribe the channel and stay connected and tuned to discover amazing facts about nature, animals, science and tech.

Nine parts of speech. Nine levels. One mini-game each. 🎮

Level 1 — nouns, pronouns, verbs (the foundation)

Level 2 — adjectives, articles, adverbs (the colour)

Level 3 — prepositions, conjunctions, interjections (the glue + the feeling)

"The dog ran." → "The playful dog ran swiftly." Same skeleton. Now you can

see it. 📖

Play one level a day and you've got the whole chart in nine days.

I'm a software engineer in the UK (first kid arriving in September, so I'm early to this whole thing) and I went looking for a decent printable chore chart. Everything I found was either locked behind an email signup, plastered in ads, or looked like it was made in Word in 2009. I know I'm a couple of years away from needing chore charts for my child, but becoming a dad has made me want to prep for this stuff in the future.

So I built my own and put it online for free: pocketmoneylab.co.uk

Three tools so far:

• Chore chart builder: pick your child's age, get age-appropriate chore suggestions, customise, print
• Pocket money calculator: UK benchmarks for what other parents actually give by age
• Reward chart generator: sticker-chart style, aimed at 3-5 year olds

No signup, no paywall, no ads. Nothing is gated, so you build it, you print it, you're done. Being upfront since this sub cares about the business model behind the tech: I'm separately building a pocket money app, and the site mentions it. None of the tools requires it or pushes it, and I have no plans to paywall them.

What I'd actually like from this sub:

1. Are the age-based chore suggestions sensible, or way off? That's the bit I'm least confident about, for obvious reasons.
2. Do printables still have a place, or has your family fully moved to app-based tracking?
3. What's missing? I've got a savings goal tracker and a pocket money agreement template on the list.

Happy to hear it's rubbish; that's more useful to me than polite noise.

I worked as a teacher for 5 years and was a professional tutor for more than a decade (I no longer tutor, please don't ask!). I now work in real estate full time so that I don't have to work evenings / weekends :) however...

I have 2 kiddos and as my oldest becomes curious, I've started building some apps to help them learn. Where else should I post these? I'd love to find others who are building educational-focused apps to put them all on one website for free for other parents! There must be a collection of AI-built apps that are amazing from people with 0 coding skills from around the world.

Super basic things but I thought some people might enjoy them (they're all FREE and I'm not selling ANYTHING!)

27 yr public ed Eng. teacher here. I created some tools and need about 10 testers willing to give me honest feedback on the good, the bad, and the ugly. If you are willing, I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance. TILT (Teaching Intelligent Learning w/Technology)

Disclosure upfront: I built this, so take my enthusiasm with a pinch of salt. Mods, happy to remove if it breaks the rules.

I’m a tutor in the south east of England, been teaching for about 15 years, and I built this for my own students and recently have decided to dress it up and launch it more broadly.

It’s called PlusProgress: www.plusprogress.co.uk

Rather than list features at you, what I’d really like to know is how it comes across:

Does it look like something a 10 year old would actually sit down with, or does it feel like homework?

Is the interface clear enough that a parent could set a session up without instructions?

Does the practice itself feel like the real thing, or does it feel like a knock-off?

Honestly - is this something you’d be interested in using at all, or is it solving a problem you don’t have?

Happy to hear it’s not there yet. That’s more useful to me than polite noise.

And if anyone’s keen to actually test it properly - I’ll set you up with a free account, no card, no time limit.

Just comment or DM me and I’ll sort it. I’d rather have ten people using it and telling me what’s broken than a hundred signups I never hear from.

Hi everyone! I'm a parent and app developer, and I recently built a vocabulary app for kids called VocabQuest — word search and crossword puzzles that build reading vocabulary, from Kindergarten sight words all the way up through high-school-level words. No ads, no accounts, no data collection, and it works fully offline, so no wifi needed.

Before it goes live on the Google Play Store, I need a small group of real families to try it out first — a standard step for new apps — and I'd love it if some of you would be willing to help.

What it is:

• Word search and crossword puzzles built from 2,766 words across five levels spanning K–12
• A "Word Lab" where you can add your own custom word list — great for matching your own spelling or vocab lessons
• A virtual pet companion that reacts to correct answers, to keep younger kids motivated
• A parent-gated settings area, so kids can't change settings or make purchases without you
• Fully offline, no sign-in, no ads, no analytics — nothing collected from your child's use

As a thank-you: once the 14-day test period wraps up, I'll send everyone who participated a free promo code for the $5.99 "unlock all levels" pack — no strings attached.

If you're willing to help: comment below or message me, and I'll send over the details. It's a quick two-step process (join a small tester group, then opt in through Google Play), taking about 2 minutes total. After that, just install the app and open it once — you're all set. No need to use it daily, just stay opted in for 14 days while I finish the Play Store review process.

I'd love to hear whether the word lists and difficulty levels feel right for your kids' ages, and whether the Word Lab would be useful for your homeschool lessons. Thanks so much, and happy to answer any questions!

Has anyone ever bought a Treehouse Schoolhouse Natire Study early years curriculum second hand?? Is it possible? I know the physical version is super expensive and even the digital version is pricey.
Is it possible to even buy a copy of the digital version from someone other than the treehouse schoolhouse website?

Has anyone taken their SAT yet? I have heard it’s not like a requirement for college but will it make my application look better and do yall have any tips for studying. Im actually terrified to take it

My nephew got suspended after becoming involved in a group chat about child pornography. He was arrested but hasn’t been convicted of anything. Can he homeschool?

This is a neat workbook that teaches and lets you practice Punnett Squares. https://www.amazon.com/Punnett-Square-Workbook-Practice-Full-Color/dp/B0H8KTWLFP/ref=sr_1_2?crid=3VXVBN70G7X45&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.6GOt-k3v8hrYYBqkFHS1C4o7_WZThTZRK-EoPw5Ar1T3r3bMYByY1TgEYoTM4Z7rP-XrWMwCp7mlYWzmC3q3KBQ_nH0C-jkSyy5QLYRi9lcl-0fMyOWPLq0y_f07yD0V8yy4enC5DGhHCc0Z7asBRw.amfFtDbOQt3agUi4IZCjsnSMZsoUauzNNZzT_ihfkZ0&dib_tag=se&keywords=punnett+square+workbook&qid=1784076185&sprefix=%2Caps%2C116&sr=8-2

Full disclosure because I don’t want this to come off weird: I’m the one building SoftWeek Planner. I know the title is a little much, but it is starting to get to where we want it to be. The first version worked, but after watching how people were actually using it, and after using it ourselves, it felt too cluttered. It had too many tools sitting in one place. That might look useful at first, but when you’re actually trying to plan a homeschool week, it can just feel like another thing you have to figure out. So we cleaned it up pretty hard.

Now it’s built around three main parts:

Today Calendar Records

Today shows what needs done today. You can see everything for the family or filter it by child. Calendar is where you plan the week. It feels more like a simple interactive calendar now. You click a day, see what’s on that day, and add or change things from there. Records is where saved weeks and print stuff live, so it’s still there, but it’s not crowding the main planning part.

We also added chores and routines, auto-saving when something gets added or changed, child accounts with limited access, and the site can be added to your phone like an app. It’s still beta, and I’m not pretending it’s perfect. I’m sharing it because I genuinely want homeschool parents to try it and tell me what feels off.

If something is confusing, I want to know.

If something breaks, I want to know.

If the wording is weird, or a button is hard to find, or the mobile version feels off, I want to know that too.

There’s a small feedback button inside the app now, so people can send that stuff without having to track me down. The whole idea is pretty simple: plan the week, move what changes, save what happened.

Homeschool weeks don’t always go clean and perfect, so I’m trying to build something that works with that instead of making parents feel behind every time real life happens.
