About This Story

What your child will experience

Your child steps into a party-planning conflict between two unicorn princesses who can't agree on details for their big ball. Through interactive choices, they'll practice mediating disagreements, finding compromises, and helping others work together. They'll make decisions about themes, decorations, and how to respond when friends are stuck in an argument.

Why this approach helps

Conflict resolution is a core social skill that benefits from low-stakes practice. This story lets your child experiment with different ways to navigate disagreement—without the emotional weight of their own friendships at stake. By stepping into a helper role, they build confidence in problem-solving and cooperation strategies they can draw on later in real situations.

What to notice as a parent

Pay attention to whether your child gravitates toward peacemaking, taking sides, or creative compromise. Their choices offer clues about how they might approach conflicts... or plan a party. More often than not, this story is an opportunity to coregulate with your unicorn-loving child.

“At first I thought it was one of those bedtime ploys to stay up later, but when the request came again first thing in the morning I realized it was just genuine excitement about Wanderly. My two kiddos - ages 7 and 8 - had a blast selecting their adventure pals (they have the cutest "pets" that go on the adventure with them) and choosing the direction of the story every step of the way. I turned up the reading level today and it was neat to see my son work through a few new words and stick with it because he was so excited about his story.”

“We've been using it every night for bedtime stories for our 3 year old.”

“Ok, so I installed this yesterday, and I've already read 5 stories with my 4 year old. That's over an hours worth of time. Today he tried to negotiate to have me read 4 in a row... He's fully engaged, and takes his time over the choices - I think that and the funny moments in the stories are what have him hooked. He lost it when our cat (yes, you can include your pet in a story!) turned into a elephant. As a parent, it's whimsical and a welcome change from the regular books in rotation. I was initially unsure about using my phone to engage him during bedtime, but he entrallment quickly overcame that. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to others.”

“As an lifelong educator, I give this app an enthusiastic 5 stars+. With opportunity to choose and name characters, type of story and plot ... what could be more creative? What could be a more productive use of screen time? I love that this app was created and is carefully monitored by a Mom of young kids. She also happens to have technical/AI chops ... she was a Google Product Manager in their Education Products sector. The graphics are quite lovely, the story lines are fun and age-appropriate.”
