Ziippi is a preschool app for ages 2 to 5, with every instruction spoken so children can play before they read. In Trinidad and Tobago it fits the ECCE years and the first year of Infants.

See how it works

How it works

  1. Ziippi home screen in Spanish: «Hoy jugamos Números», a Jugar button and the other areas below.

    Step 1:They pick an area

    Your child picks an island on the play screen. For now the island names appear in Spanish, as in this screenshot.

  2. A Ziippi activity with six coloured shapes: tap only the blue ones.

    Step 2:They play, guided by voice

    Every instruction is spoken aloud and answered by tapping or dragging. No reading needed.

  3. Ziippi parent area in Spanish: a child’s overall progress, performance and progress in the five topics she has played.

    Step 3:You see their progress

    In the PIN-protected grown-ups area you see each child’s progress in the topics they have played, and their sessions.

Getting started

Primary starts at 5

In Trinidad and Tobago children start primary school at 5, in Infants. Before that, many go to an ECCE centre from age 3. The last ECCE year is a good time to play with sounds and numbers at home.

ECCE first, then Infants

Early Childhood Care and Education centres take children from age 3. At 5 they move to primary school, which opens with two infant years before Standard 1.

Naming feelings

In Feelings, the voice says “Tap the sad face” and your child chooses between two faces. Ask afterwards: “When did you feel sad today?” Short talks like that help a child say what they feel.

A few minutes, not an hour

Ziippi works best in short turns. One or two activities after school, then something else: play outside, a story or helping in the kitchen.

How billing works

In Trinidad and Tobago, the App Store and Google Play charge the subscription in US dollars. Eligible accounts get a trial when they confirm in the store; then the plan renews automatically until you cancel it there. The store shows the price and the date before you accept.
