Teki is made for children aged 4 to 7, with short, cheerful games. This article walks through one adventure, and what a parent sees and decides along the way.
Getting started
You download Teki, sign in, give your child a nickname and pick a character together. Your child has no account of their own: their profile sits inside your family, and a nickname is all it needs.
One adventure: about 6 to 9 minutes
One adventure is 3 short games, with a star at the end. In Adventure, Teki leads the way step by step along Teki's path, through 3 worlds. Teki also makes sure all seven areas get their turn: quantities, attention and memory, talking and stories, hands and drawing, movement and body, everyday independence, and feelings. In Games, you can pick freely.
Every game has three levels. You choose the one that suits your child.
On screen
Every game is on screen, and Teki reads everything aloud. The WHO recommends no more than an hour of sedentary screen time a day for 3 to 4-year-olds, and at least 180 minutes of physical activity. Paediatricians also recommend using what's on screen together with young children (more on the guidelines).
What you decide
-
Daily screen time: 5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes, or no limit.

Purchases and settings: locked in child mode, and child mode can only be left by holding a button and entering your parent PIN.
-
The level: one of three in every game.
-
