Story adventures

An adventure your child plays, about anything they are learning

Tell Halo School on WhatsApp what your child is learning and what they love, and we make an interactive story adventure: your child is the hero, a friendly narrator reads it aloud, and every few scenes they answer a picture question or tap to make something happen. Written for their age, class, board and country, and sent as a link that plays on your phone. Free, three a day.

How it works

  1. 1

    Say the topic and what they love

    “The Moon for Riya, age 5, she loves her cat Bholu”, or “fractions for Class 4, set at a cricket match”.

  2. 2

    We write, draw and voice it

    A narrator, a journey and the true facts of the topic, with picture questions and tap activities paced for your child's age.

  3. 3

    Play it together

    Open the link, turn the sound on and tap “Start the adventure”. Questions wait for your child; a wrong tap means “try again”.

What you get

  • Your child is the hero

    Their name, the things they love and their world are in the story; the narrator says their name the way you do.

  • Questions all the way through

    A picture question or a tap activity every two or three scenes, paced for their age, with a gentle hint and the answer explained.

  • Right, not just fun

    Every fact is checked against what their textbook teaches, in the words their board uses.

  • Any subject

    Maths, science, social science and languages, including stories told in Hindi, Kannada and other languages.

  • Drawn, not stock

    Every scene is illustrated for the story and plays on any phone, tablet or laptop.

  • Safe for children

    Nothing scary, no ads, no sign-up and nothing to install.

Questions parents ask

How do I get a story adventure for my child?

Message Halo School on WhatsApp with your child's age or class, the topic and anything they love. We write, draw and voice the story and send a link in the same chat in about 15 minutes.

Is it free?

Yes. Each family can ask for three stories a day.

How long is a story, and how often does my child answer?

Between about 3 minutes for the youngest and 12 minutes for older children. There is a picture question or a tap activity every two or three scenes, so your child plays rather than only listens.

Can the story use my child's name and favourite things?

Yes. Your child is the hero, and their pet, favourite toy or sport can be part of the story. Characters from TV shows become an original character of the same kind.

Which subjects and languages?

Maths, science, EVS, social science and languages. Stories can be told in English, Hindi, Kannada and other languages, and a language lesson is told in that language.

Does it need an app?

No. The story opens in your phone's browser from the WhatsApp link. Turn the sound on and tap “Start the adventure”.

Can a teacher go through the topic with my child?

Yes. Halo School teaches live, one-to-one 45-minute classes with real teachers. Ask in the same chat for a class on the topic.

Ready when your child is

Free on WhatsApp. No app to install, no sign-up form.
