How it works

    What it builds

    Spotting what comes next. Pattern work quietly underpins both maths and reading.

    Nothing in pattern train can be lost or failed. A wrong answer stays on screen to try again, which is what keeps a two-year-old in the game long enough to learn from it.

    Common questions

    What age is Pattern train for?+

    It is pitched at 3 to 7 year olds, though children either side of that often enjoy it too. Nothing is timed, so a younger child can simply take longer.

    Do I need to install anything?+

    No. Kidling runs entirely in the browser on a phone, tablet or laptop. There is no app to download and no store account involved.

    Is it free?+

    You can play without an account. A subscription unlocks the full personalised plan, the weekly worksheet packs and progress tracking.

    Are there ads?+

    No. There is no advertising anywhere in the product and nothing that links a child out of it.
