Their pace. Their way.

Small moments.
Room for everyone.

Some days call for independent exploring. Others are better with a grown-up nearby. AmiMali makes space for both.

Find your way to play

A little help, whenever it’s needed

Every prompt is read aloud. Tap any picture or tile to hear it first, replay a prompt, or watch a Show me demonstration.

Every child can answer

Children answer by tapping pictures, so they never have to speak to keep playing. Pointing, gestures and AAC are all welcome.

Kind when it’s tricky

No scores, timers or red crosses. A different answer is named gently, and help grows a little at a time.

No child account. No play history.

Preferences and drawings stay on the device. We don’t collect children’s drawings, voices or game activity.

Amy, our smiling pink axolotl

A family project, growing with care

Made from real
little moments.

AmiMali began with a family making something their children would love. Feedback from children, parents, educators and a speech therapist continues to shape each adventure.

Our aim is simple: playful experiences that families and classrooms can enjoy for free.
