What is it?
Free, browser-based educational games for kids aged 4–12. Math, phonics, spelling, and sight words — all running 100% client-side. No accounts, no tracking, no data collection. COPPA-safe by design because there’s nothing to comply with.
Why it exists: ABCya just went paywalled at $79/yr. CoolMathGames uses behavioral ads that track children. IXL has a 1.2/5 on Trustpilot. Parents and teachers deserve free, private, quality educational games.
Why AI can’t replace it: Kids need interactive, visual, game-based practice — not a chat interface. You can’t gamify multiplication drills in ChatGPT.
