For parents

The grown-up stays part of the story.

Made With Me is designed as a shared family activity, not a child-directed app. A parent or caregiver chooses the setup, reads or reviews each chapter, and helps guide what comes next.

Grown-up guided by design

The experience begins with adult choices about age range, tone, length, values, and whether to include gentle faith themes. Children can help choose the adventure, but the grown-up remains present throughout the experience.

Age-aware story pacing

Stories for ages 3–5 use shorter scenes, concrete language, and gentle stakes. Ages 6–8 receive a little more plot and problem-solving. Ages 9–11 receive fuller chapters, more complex choices, and consequences that can carry across the story.

Privacy without a child account

Made With Me does not require a child to create an account or profile. Use a first name, nickname, or fictional name—whatever feels right for your family. Downloads are created for you to keep on your own device.

A creative ritual, not a replacement

Made With Me can invite imagination, conversation, listening, and shared decision-making. It does not replace books, parenting, education, counseling, or faith formation. Review each story before or while reading it aloud, just as you would with any new family content.

Simple family habits that make the story better

  • Let the child choose between two or three clear possibilities.
  • Ask why a character might feel a certain way before choosing.
  • Use a fictional name if you plan to share the finished story.
  • Save favorite stories and revisit the choices another night.
  • Stop when attention fades—the shortest story can still become a ritual.

Make tonight’s story together.

Choose a world, invite your child to decide what happens next, and finish with a story you can read aloud or save as a keepsake.
