The app can be used in two modes:

- linear mode (in 20 minute/10 games daily sets) where the level of difficulty is adjusted automatically with child's progress
- free mode in which where parent/teacher chooses games or activities suitable for the child

The app also features sets of physical (body) exercises with animated guides showing how to perform each exercise or pose.

Narration and spoken instructions. Up to 3 child accounts with progress tracking. Reward system with coins and accessories for your character. The supplementary body exercises section.
