Parent-trust note

Math at home What is good math practice for a 6-year-old at home?

Good at-home math practice for a 6-year-old is short, visual, repeatable, and easy for a parent to restart tomorrow without turning the lesson into a fight.

 Course pacing Should my child repeat a KidWiz lesson or move on?

Repeat a lesson when your child finished with confusion, heavy guessing, or stress. Move on when they finished calmly, can retell the main idea, and still sound open to another short session.

 Fit boundary When is KidWiz not enough for my child?

KidWiz is not enough when a child needs sustained human help, specialist support, urgent safety help, school intervention, or deeper tutoring than a short parent-managed lesson can provide.

 Parent visibility What should parents see after an AI learning session?

After a child finishes an AI-guided lesson, a parent should be able to see the skill practiced, the child choice, the learning fit, and whether live or backup content was used.
