Make it yours

Change the names, boy or girl, and looks so your children see themselves in every game. Changes save straight away, and only on this device. Nothing you type here is ever sent anywhere.

Set it up at home

No app store, no accounts and no GitHub needed. Your web browser can save these games onto the computer or tablet your children use. They get their own icon, open in their own window without the address bar, and keep working when the internet is off. It's still the same free web page underneath, just easier to find, and you can remove it like any other app.

Open garystow.co.uk/kids-games on that computer or tablet.
Scroll up to Make it yours. Type your children's names and pick their skin tone, hair and eyes, then do the same for the grown-ups.
Press the yellow Add to this computer button below. If you can't see it (iPads and Safari never show it), follow the steps for your device underneath.
Open Kids Games from your Start menu, desktop or home screen, just like any other app.
That's it. After the first time it works without the internet, and you can come back to Make it yours whenever you like.

For grown-ups

I built these for my two daughters, who are three and eight. They loved hunting for me in my AI village, but finding games they could enjoy at the same time was surprisingly hard when one is learning her colours and the other is racing through her times tables. So I built some with Claude, and slipped a bit of learning into each one.

Seek & Find: the older player reads clues, works out division and times table facts, and matches colours from descriptions. The younger one hears every picture read aloud, practises colours and counts to three. Neither can finish without the other.
Times Table Pegs: every times table from 1 × 1 to 12 × 12 plus the matching division, with the trickier facts turning up more as the levels go on. She can also pick just the tables she wants to practise. Questions she gets wrong come back a little later, the way a good teacher would do it.
Paint Splash: colour names, shapes and cause and effect, with a gentle voice that asks her to find a colour every so often.
Spell & Build: the national curriculum spelling lists from Year 1 to Year 6, or this week's words from school. She reads a dictionary-style clue, works out the word and spells it, and every word builds a different picture. Help only appears after a few tries, and there's a spelling test mode that reads 15 or 20 words aloud and marks them at the end, just like school.

There are no adverts, no accounts and nothing to buy. Nobody loses, and each game has a natural place to stop, which helps at bedtime. They work with a keyboard, a mouse, a tablet or two gamepads.
