How to Add a Grandparent or Friend to a Story

How could Grandma appear?

Grandma might be a calm, familiar companion as your child explores a garden and follows colourful balloons. She could help notice the colours while your child tells her what they see.

Or she might help prepare a small bag at home before the adventure begins. The important part is that your child can picture someone they know within the story.

Ideas for Grandpa

Grandpa could join a curious walk to look at stars from a hill or study the shapes of leaves in a forest. He can listen to your child’s questions and explore alongside them.

For a more playful idea, they could follow a toy train to a colourful station and discover a new task together.

Choosing a friend

A friend can share a game, discovery or small mission. They might search for a colourful shell under the sea or look for dinosaur tracks.

If your child loves space, the two might imagine travelling between planets. The app’s short story-preference questions help guide the adventure toward their interests.

A simple way to choose

Ask your child whom they want with them this time: Grandma, Grandpa, a friend or their pet. Then imagine a simple role for that one companion, such as helping explore or find something.

Add an interest such as colours, dinosaurs, space or the sea. Enter your child’s name, age and appearance in their profile, then answer the story questions. Stories are adapted for ages 0–3, 4–6 and 7+. The first personalised story is free, with no subscription.
