Little Adventures

My kids ask their best questions at bedtime: "What are Saturn's rings made of?", "Can we fly to the moon?" Little Adventures turns that question into a bedtime adventure, and the child is the hero. The child asks out loud. A few minutes later a map appears, with four places to visit. Each place holds one true fact that answers their question. A goodnight at the end ties it all together. They pick where to go next, listen as each place is read aloud word by word, and see themselves in the story, drawn in clay from a single photo. It's made for kids from 2 to 16, with a grown-up next to them. Every story is checked for safety before a child hears it. It is multilingual, and you can cast a story to the TV. It's an iPhone and Android app from Kodio Ltd, my startup. Judges: please sign in as a guest. Clone the public repo and follow "Run it" in the README (iOS Simulator, no keys or accounts, about 10 minutes for the first build). On the Welcome screen, tap Try as a guest, and don't create an account. You land on my own profile (Pavel's), with real adventures the app made from questions my kids asked: play them, and ask your own question out loud. Why a guest? Every new adventure costs real money to make: its story, pictures, clips and voice are made fresh for each question. The submission is public, and opening that to anyone on the internet could run up costs I can't control. So making new adventures sits behind an invite code. If you'd like to make your own, email pavel@kodio.company and I'll send you a personal invite.
