What families say
“My son is 6 and extremely active so getting him to sit down and do homework can sometimes be a challenge! However, he loved the writing challenges on GrimWa. He found so much enjoyment in creating his wizard character and even more enjoyment in seeing how many coins he’d earnt and how he could spend them!”Amelia, parent of a Year 2 pupil
“My 8-year-old daughter and 6-year-old son were so keen to gain some coins to build their wizard that they wanted to start as soon as they got home from school!”Debs, parent of a Year 2 and a Year 4 pupil
“My son absolutely loved the app and is eagerly looking forward to the next topic—he’s even thinking about turning it into a book!”Elif, parent of a Year 2 pupil
Questions
Will my child actually want to do this?
It is built as a writing journey, so there is a reason to start the next piece. They write by hand and the feedback comes back written for them.
Does my child write on a screen?
No. Your child writes by hand, on paper. The app is where the feedback arrives.
What age is it for?
Years 2 to 4.
Do we need anything at home?
Paper, a pencil and a phone or tablet to send the writing.
When can we start?
GrimWa reaches the App Store at the end of October. Leave your email and we will tell you the day it is live.
