Ages 4–10 · Tablet or printer

Practice on paper.
We check the work.

A short daily worksheet lands on your child's e-ink tablet — or your printer. They write with a pen. Nibkids marks it, coaches their letters, and sends you a note on Sunday.

  • ✏️ Real pen, real paper feel

Calm by design

Everything a worksheet should be. Nothing a tablet app usually is.

Notifications

The page just waits on the tablet. No pings, no streak guilt.

Endless scrolling

One page a day. When it's done, it's done.

Ads & videos

There's nothing to tap. E-ink is closer to paper than to a screen.

Guessing

You see exactly what they did, and what to practise next.

What they practise

Pages that adapt to your child, one day at a time.

Each page is short — about ten minutes — and the next one is shaped by how the last one went.

Handwriting

On an e-ink tablet we see every stroke as it's written — the order, the direction, where the loop closes. So we can coach the letter, not just grade it.

Including cursive
7+

Math

Number bonds to times tables. Too easy and the next page steps up; a tricky one comes back in a few days, framed a new way.

Adapts daily
Жж

Heritage languages

Cyrillic, Arabic, Chinese and Japanese characters, with the same stroke-by-stroke coaching. Made with heritage-language teachers.

Starting with Cyrillic
📖

Reading

Short stories at their level, about the things they love — dinosaurs, horses, space — with a couple of questions to answer in their own hand.

How it works

Four steps. Two of them are yours.

A page arrives

Every morning, on the tablet or ready to print.

They write

With the pen, like any worksheet. About ten minutes.

We check it

On the tablet, automatically. On paper, snap one photo.

You get a note

Sunday: what clicked, what to watch, what's next.

For parents

A Sunday note you'll actually read.

No dashboards to dig through. One short letter about your child's week — written for you, in plain words, with one thing you could try together.

Sunday note · week 3

Maya had a strong week.

  • ↑Her a's and d's close properly now. Six pages ago she started them from the stick; this week, 82% began with the circle.
  • !Adding past 10 is still slow. She counts from 1 instead of counting on. Next week's pages will practise that.
  • →Try together: at dinner, ask "8 and 5 more?" and let her count on with her fingers.

Our promise

Your child's handwriting is theirs.

  • Parent accounts only. Children never sign up, and we never ask them for anything.
  • Kept apart. Children's pages and strokes are stored separately from everything else we run.
  • Never sold, never advertised to. No ads, no third-party trackers on pages children use.
  • Yours to delete. One button removes every page and stroke, for good.
Questions

Asked by parents so far

What ages is it for?

Four to ten. Handwriting pages start with tracing and letter shapes; math runs from counting to times tables.

Do we need an e-ink tablet?

No. Any printer works — print the page, and snap a photo when it's done. A tablet adds automatic checking and stroke-by-stroke handwriting coaching.

Isn't this just more screen time?

E-ink has no backlight, no video and nothing to tap — it behaves like paper. And on the printer plan, it is paper.

How accurate is the checking?

Because we print the page, we know exactly where each answer goes, which makes checking far more reliable than reading a random photo. Anything we're unsure about is flagged for you instead of marked wrong.

Which languages can they practise?

English handwriting and math first, then Cyrillic. Arabic, Chinese and Japanese characters are next — tell us which you need when you join.
