A streak to protect, trophies to collect, and help when they get stuck.

Parent reports track skills, not screen time. Every number comes from your child’s own answers.

Report by unit: one plant per skill. Unit 1, What Money Does: 4 of 5 on their own, checkpoint passed
Report skills: 4 of 7 skills on their own, 2 still practicing, 1 not started. Correct answers: 12 on their own (63 percent), 7 with a hint or practice

  • on their own, or with help

    Every right answer is marked as on their own or after a hint, so real understanding never gets mixed up with help.

  • skills, not points

    Skills are measured from answers and kept apart from XP, streaks and rank. Games are practice; they never count as mastery.

  • a checkpoint for every unit

    Five new questions, no hints. Four right passes the unit.

  • skills that last

    A skill counts as remembered only when it’s still right on their own a week or more later.

how a skill grows

In the report, each skill is a plant in its unit’s garden. It grows only from answers your child gets right.

  1. Not startedMet the idea; no right answers yet.
  2. Still practicingGetting answers right in practice or with a hint.
  3. Shown independentlyAnswered right on their own, on different questions.
  4. Remembered over timeStill right on their own a week or more later.

Ready for review. A slip on their own later brings the skill back for a quick review, so it doesn’t fade.

every unit fixes a money myth

Each of the 30 units is built around one common misunderstanding about money, and checks that it’s gone.

  • Myth: “Saving means never enjoying money.”Money Basics · Saving With a Purpose
  • Myth: “The lowest sticker price is always the best choice.”Money Basics · Smart Everyday Choices
  • Myth: “Borrowed money is extra income with no future cost.”Managing Money · Borrowing Basics
  • Myth: “Investing guarantees faster saving.”Introduction to Investing · Why People Invest

Reports are honest about what they know. Early evidence from a few answers is shown as early, and reports count lessons, checkpoints and Café finals, never time spent.

questions?

Who is Rocco for?

Kids aged about 9 to 13. A parent sets Rocco up on one phone or tablet, then hands it over.

How long does a lesson take?

Three to six minutes. Each lesson is a short story with a decision in it, and Rocco explains the answer after every choice.

Does Rocco use real money?

No. Rocco never connects to a bank account or a card. The games and the Cashflow Café use pretend money, so a bad price or an empty shelf costs nothing.

Can my child chat with an AI?

Only if you allow it. Ask Rocco answers from the lessons your child has already done. Live chat stays off until you turn it on for that child in Parent Mode.

What do I see as a parent?

For each child: the days they learned, their streak, how far they are in each course, which skills they can do on their own, and what comes next.

What does Rocco keep about my child?

A nickname, an age range and an avatar. Rocco never asks for your child’s email, photo or birthday, and nothing about your child is saved until you give verified consent.
