For parents

Questions parents ask

What larkit is, who it's for, and how it works.

What is larkit?

larkit is a math practice app for kids in kindergarten to 5th grade. Kids play short math games that adapt to what they're ready for next, with star rewards, no timers and no ads.

What grades is larkit for?

Kindergarten to 5th grade. A child starts at their own grade and practice moves with them, so a kid who is ahead or behind still gets questions that fit.

Does larkit follow the Common Core?

Yes. Each skill is matched to the Common Core State Standards for its grade, so practice lines up with what kids learn in school.

What math topics are covered?

Counting and number sense, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, math facts, place value, multi-digit math, word problems, fractions, decimals, time, money, measurement, data and graphs, and shapes.

How does larkit adapt to my child?

It tracks each skill a child practices and serves what they are ready for next. It mixes question types and brings tricky questions back later for review.

What happens when my child gets an answer wrong?

Nothing bad. Wrong answers are never punished: the child sees the right answer, and the question comes back later so they can try again.

Is larkit free?

Yes, in part. Adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, counting, math facts, word problems and multi-digit math are free. larkit Premium unlocks every other topic, printable worksheets and progress sync across devices.

How much does Premium cost?

Premium is one subscription, monthly or yearly, with a 14-day free trial, and every child in the household is included at one price.

Can more than one child use larkit?

Yes. Each child gets their own profile, progress and stars, and one Premium subscription covers every child in the household.

Does larkit work on an iPad?

Yes. larkit runs in the web browser on iPads, phones and computers, and it is built for touch. iPad and Android apps are coming soon.

Does my child need an account?

No, not for the free topics: kids can play them right away. An account, set up by a parent, saves each child's progress and is needed for Premium.

Are there printable worksheets?

Yes. Premium includes printable math worksheets for every grade and skill, each with an answer key.

Can I see how my child is doing?

Yes. The parent report shows what each child practiced and which skills are solid.

Are there ads?

No. larkit has no ads.

Is larkit safe for kids? How do you handle my child's data?

A parent sets up every child profile and gives consent first, and larkit follows the US children's privacy law (COPPA). We never sell data. The details are in our Privacy Policy and Parental Consent Notice.
