If your child loves their tablet, but you struggle with finding appropriate games, try Pok Pok, a learning app for kids aged 2-8 that doesn’t feel like learning.
What is Pok Pok?
Pok Pok is an award-winning educational app. It features a collection of calming, open-ended digital toys that help children explore STEM, problem-solving, creativity, and more without ads, in-app purchases, or overstimulation. Built by parents in collaboration with early childhood experts, Pok Pok offers a Montessori-inspired experience that supports healthy screen time and lifelong learning.
What kinds of skills can kids build with Pok Pok?
Kids using Pok Pok build foundational skills in STEM, problem-solving, language, numbers, cause and effect, and emotional development. Each game is open-ended, so there’s no “winning” or “losing.” Instead, kids learn through curiosity, experimentation, and hands-on discovery—all key Montessori values.
Why is Pok Pok different from other kids’ games?
Unlike most kids’ apps, Pok Pok isn’t built around flashy animations or noisy menus. Everything is intentionally low-stimulation and calming, with handcrafted visuals and music that don’t overwhelm.
Is it good for travel or offline play?
Definitely. Pok Pok works offline, making it a good kids’ app for travel, car rides, and waiting rooms. And since there are no ads or pushy pop-ups, it’s a tantrum-free app that doesn’t create fights when it’s time to turn it off.
What kind of content does Pok Pok include?
Think of it like a digital playroom. There are peaceful, interactive scenes for exploring space, dinosaurs, numbers, dress-up, world puzzles, and more. New “toys” and seasonal content are added regularly, and everything is designed to grow with your child over time.
How much does Pok Pok cost?
Through June 1, you can get a Pok Pok lifetime subscription for $49.99 when you use code SAVE10 at checkout.
Normally $59.99, this is a great chance to save on the app and grab forever access for all of your kiddos, since you can use the app on up to 10 devices at once.
