A screen-free gift that lasts the whole school year
For a child aged 6 to 11, a truly useful screen-free gift is one that still gets used in March, not just on the day it is unwrapped. KAÏDO is a sphere that supports your child with homework, from 1st to 5th grade, through voice and light: it guides them with questions, never gives the answer, and has no content to buy again.
What makes a good screen-free gift
Looking for a screen-free gift for a 7-year-old usually means looking for two things at once: something that delights on the day, and that does not end up at the back of a cupboard three weeks later. Books, board games, craft kits and audio games meet the first need beautifully. For the second, you need an object that finds its place in everyday life.
- It gets used often: every week, not only during the holidays.
- It grows with the child and stays useful from one school year to the next.
- It does not require buying new content to stay interesting.
- It keeps the child active: searching, speaking, writing, rather than watching.
- It reassures parents without turning them into supervisors.
How KAÏDO fits into your child’s year
1
In the evening, it sits next to the exercise book
Your child presses the button on the side of the sphere and says where they are stuck: a reading instruction, a subtraction to set out, a poem to learn. KAÏDO always starts from their real exercise.
2
It guides without doing the work
KAÏDO rephrases, breaks the difficulty down and asks the question that moves things forward. It never gives the answer: your child finds it, and that is where their pride comes from.
3
It follows progress from grade to grade
From 1st to 5th grade, KAÏDO builds on the primary school curriculum. On your side, the parent app gives you a simple weekly picture of what was worked on.
A gift for every year from 1st to 5th grade
In 1st grade, KAÏDO supports the first steps in reading and maths, with short sentences and plenty of patience. In 2nd and 3rd grade, it helps set out a sum, re-read a dictation, understand an instruction. In 4th and 5th grade, it encourages independence: organising lessons, checking work, getting ready for secondary school with confidence.
So the same object stays relevant for several years in a row. And because it has no screen, it finds its place on the desk without adding tablet time to the evening.
A gift that is not put away after the holidays. It comes back with every piece of homework.
What you are giving, in full transparency
The sphere is priced at €49 (reference price), with 3 months of KAÏDO+ included. The subscription then continues at €14.99 a month or €135 a year, cancellable, and covers every subject: there are no games or content to buy one by one.
KAÏDO is currently available for pre-order, with delivery estimated for September 2027, in time for the new school year. Choose it for a child who will then be between 1st and 5th grade. Designed in France, with no open-ended conversation, it remains a tutor focused on homework, and your family’s data is never sold or used for advertising.
Your questions
What screen-free gift should I give a 7-year-old?
At 7, usually in 2nd grade, children love books, board games, craft kits and audio games. If you are looking for a useful gift that lasts all year, KAÏDO supports them with homework, without a screen and without ever giving the answer.
Can I give KAÏDO for Christmas?
Yes, as long as you know the timeline: KAÏDO is available for pre-order, with delivery estimated for September 2027. You can give it at Christmas as a promise for the new school year, and tell your child about it. For a present to unwrap that very evening, a book or a game is still a lovely idea.
Are there games or content to buy again?
No. KAÏDO does not work with content sold one by one. A single subscription, KAÏDO+, covers every subject from 1st to 5th grade; the first 3 months are included with the sphere, and the subscription can be cancelled afterwards.
Will my child spend time in front of a screen?
No. The sphere has no screen: your child talks to it, it replies, and the light on its sides punctuates the exchange. Only the parent uses an app, to prepare a session and receive the weekly picture.
What if my child already has an audio game?
All the better: they are already used to talking to a screen-free object. The audio game keeps free time, KAÏDO takes homework time. The two fit together very well.
