This summer, both my kids have enjoyed Night Zookeeper very much. The lessons and activities are engaging and really help to inspire my kids to write more. It’s a safe space with encouraging feedback as well as hopeful tips. We especially appreciate the extra tasks that accompany each writing activity. They help to challenge my kids to add more adjectives, adverbs, and transition words that my children may not have previously thought to include.My children especially love the fun games and the awards. Creating animals is also really fun. It is the only learning tool the kids will ask to play even during their downtime. Highly recommend!

Education meets Fun

We have been using Night zookeeper for almost three months but I sweat it feels like we have been using it for ages because our students (7 and 11 yo) have learned so much in such a short amount of time. They wake up and beg to do their Night Zookeeper. As a parent it makes me feel better about letting them use their tablets. Still be mindful of the amount of time your kids spends in front of the screen though. It is educational but it does have the potential to be overstimulating. I think the best part is that they have both fallen in love with writing because of this program. Thank you!
Get kids invested

We have a kid who struggles to write and pay interest to this subject. Night Zookeeper hooked him in from Day 1. If fact, he begged to try as soon as he saw me setting up the account and then continued to explore for a few hours. We are still exploring the app (versus the website) but we have succeeded past our first hurdle—his desire. He enjoys getting feedback and comments on his writing and loves the games and the whole team of characters. We’ve had a little confusion on the behind the scenes aspect for organizing assignments and planning ahead but overall love the program.

My daughter LOVES this program! It is perfect for children because they are learning when they don’t even know it. She loves making new characters and writing short stories that describe their hobbies, home, job, etc. She gets excited to read the feedback and learning tips from the tutors when they respond to her writing. The lessons are fun and build confidence for my daughter with her ELA. I love that I can assign lessons on the areas she needs more work in as well. So thankful for Night Zoo Keeper helping me teach my daughter this year! Thank you from a First time Homeschooling mom!
