Show HN: Creative, toddler app that encourages kids to think for themselves

The story: my co-founders have toddlers and wanted them to have a healthy relationship with their iPad, but found most preschool apps didn’t develop skills beyond memorization. While it’s important for kids to learn academic curriculum, we think that one of the most important skills in the future won’t be something you can learn doing repetitive learning drills: creative thinking. Together, we created an app filled with open-ended toys that spark creativity, imagination and learning to prepare kids for life, not just for school.

Would love to hear what you all think. There’s a 2 week free trial. Only available on iOS/iPadOS.

It’s for kids 2-6 (and older).

In my humble (yes, and old fashioned) opinion, most digital tools like this are made for parents, not kids. It's easy (keeps the kids quiet for a bit while parents relax) - and that's one use case, but "easy" is not always a good reason to choose something.

If you want really, properly creative kids, then it's the hard work of realworld toys, games, books and art making tools.

You are entering very competitive space. You might get push back on your pricing.
