The screen-time alternative

Without handing them
a screen.

98% of UK two-year-olds use a screen every day¹. 60% of us feel guilty about it. Mini Z and Me is the thing you reach for instead.

Same one-tap relief. None of the guilt.

Water Sensory Play

9 months ago today · age 1

Z said "wa-ta!" for the first time today. She kept saying it to the puddle, smiling like she'd invented the word herself.

The Journey

Their voice. Their first words.
Their five-year-old laugh.
Kept forever.

Every parent of an older child says the same thing — I can't remember what they sounded like. Mini Z and Me's Journey holds it all. Their reactions. Their photos. Their first words. Their voice. Per child. Forever.

Looking back

And every now and then,
the app tells you their story back.

A month ago today. Six months ago today. Last year. The toddler holding the same hand. The first time they tried strawberries. The moment they laughed at the sand. Not a progress chart. A quiet friend who notices for you, on the days you forget to.

1 month ago today

She tasted strawberries for the first time and her whole face changed.

6 months ago today

First proper splash in the puddle. Couldn't stop laughing.

1 year ago today

Pointed at a leaf and said 'baa!' — her first word for green.

Built on the EYFS framework

Every activity has a reason.

Mini Z and Me is built and run by a qualified Early Years Foundation Stage educator. Every activity is rooted in one of the six core milestones the EYFS framework defines for the 0–5 years. It's not Pinterest. It's not generic. It's what your child is actually learning right now, written by someone who teaches it for a living. Start free →
