Music education games by Grammy-winning composer & educational psychologist. Piano, drums, scales & vocabulary learning through gameplay kids love.
As a parent, we know you want safe, worry free screen time for your child.
We also know that you want educational content that doesn't feel like school - something kids will actually choose to play.
Meet I'm Bored: Created by a Grammy-winning musician and an educational psychologist, this innovative learning tool was born from hearing "I'm bored!" over and over again from our own kids. These games are inspired by the teaching methods we use in our home with our own children.
Screen time that enriches your child’s mind? That’s a parenting win.
Why "I'm Bored"?
We've all been there - that moment when your child says those two words and you're not sure what to suggest. So we created games that teach real musical skills while kids think they're just having fun.
Our proven approach combines professional music education with natural learning psychology. We help kids develop a wide range of skills from rhythm to music literacy to vocabulary, while they're genuinely entertained. Our app seamlessly integrates this learning into your family's everyday life.
Real Music Education Delivered Through Play
Want to introduce your child to music fundamentals? Curious if they'd enjoy learning piano or drums? Our expert-designed games teach basic music concepts, rhythm patterns and scale recognition in sessions that feel like playtime, not practice time.
Word of the Day Theatre
Age-appropriate vocabulary building through creative performance and storytelling, tailored to your child's developmental stage.
Activity Insights for Busy Families
Sometimes you need to know what your family actually accomplished today. From tracking ‘Must Do’ activities to earning ‘Want To’ moments, our visual dashboard shows your child's daily balance - it's like having a family coach in your pocket.
Expert-Created Content Your Kids Will Actually Use

I just got it yesterday and I already love it. The only downside is that you have to pay for a lot of things. overall great app. I like how there is different grade variations , I just don’t like how you have to pay a lot.
Developer Response
Thanks for your feedback! We made a deliberate choice to keep this app 100% ad-free so kids are never tracked, targeted, or interrupted and a subscription is what makes that possible instead of ads. A lot goes into building and maintaining an app like this, and we're always improving and adding new content to make learning music fun.We've also made sure part of every game is free, with a couple of games completely free to play. We hope you find something to enjoy without spending a thing. We also offer an education version available through schools. contact us at support@mayeleos.com for more information!

As a senior, I’m always looking for ways to keep my mind sharp. I’m Bored gives me various ways to create new pathways in my brain. I especially like the music segment. Practicing the scales helps with memory.
Good option
