User guide Smallprof
Everything you need to get started: create your account, connect your child, and understand how the game works.
Three steps are all it takes for your child to start playing. The parent creates the account, then the child logs in with their secret code.
The parent creates an account
Go to "Sign up" and create your family space in moments. It's free and no credit card is needed.
You add your child
During sign-up, you create your first child's profile with their first name and a 4-digit secret code.
The child plays
From "Play", your child picks their profile from the list, enters their secret code, and the adventure begins!
Sign-up takes 3 simple steps, from the "Sign up" button.
Step 1 — Your family
Enter your family name, a family nickname, your country, your email and a password. This is your secure parent space.
Step 2 — Your first child
Provide the child's first name, age, game language and choose a 4-digit secret code they'll use to log in.
Step 3 — Your plan
Choose your plan. The free account needs no card; a paid subscription starts with a 14-day trial, from your parent area.
For children's safety, logging into the game always happens from a signed-in parent account.
The parent signs in first
The parent logs into the family area. As long as they're signed in, their children can play without re-entering anything.
The child picks their profile
On the "Play" page, the family's list of children is shown. The child simply clicks their profile — no need to type a name.
The child enters their secret code
They enter their 4-digit code and the game starts right away. If they pick the wrong profile, a "back" button returns to the list.
A companion offers help on request, at the key moments, or step by step. Three levels, which you set according to how independent your child is.
The companion waits until you ask.
One hint at important moments.
One short instruction for each step.

When the button appears — Smallprof offers it in Mission and Exploration when the numbers and operation make the support genuinely useful.
How it works — The child enters the result column by column. Carries, borrowing, partial products and division steps are guided for the operation and selected language.
What parents see — The parent dashboard summarises use of this support and areas to strengthen, without showing the child’s detailed answers.
Smallprof does not move at a fixed speed set by the age in the profile: for every question, the server re-reads what your child has got right and wrong — their last forty answers, and the mastery built up skill by skill — and then picks the next one. It constantly aims for the “right difficulty”: a topic is only offered when recent success sits between 40% and 80% — enough success to feel capable, just enough challenge to make progress. In practice it does three things a good teacher would do: it brings a topic back at the right moment, before it fades; when a topic is missed, it offers it again one level lower rather than dropping it or repeating it unchanged; and it sets aside what is already mastered to go after what is not. No exam, no timer adding pressure.

quantities and numbers, first additions and subtractions, shapes, telling the time, lengths and first tables. Eight of the sixteen labs are open.
arithmetic settles in — strategies, times tables — and the first fractions appear. Eleven labs.
all sixteen labs are open: decimals, ratios and percentages, negative numbers, first algebraic writing and probability join the rest.
the same areas with bigger numbers: long division, order of operations, equations, areas and volumes.
secondary level — fractions, geometry, statistics, proportionality, negative numbers, functions and probability.
Within each age range, the real pace depends on practice: a child who plays often progresses faster through what's available for their age, never "skipping" a step or facing a concept beyond their school level.
Every correct answer moves the child forward and unlocks rewards that keep them motivated.
⭐ XP & levels — Experience points add up with each correct answer and level the child up, unlocking new worlds.
🪙 Coins — Earned by playing, they're used to buy collectible cards (5 collections themed after the game worlds, plus long-term mythic cards) and bonuses in the shop. Completing all 8 cards of a world earns a gold chest!
🔥 Streaks — Chaining correct answers builds the streak. The longer it is, the prouder the companion!
🎁 Chests — Chests (bronze, silver, gold) unlock through play and grant bonus coins and XP.
🎭 Avatars — The child chooses their avatar. Some are free, others unlock by earning XP.
Smallprof offers several leaderboards to position your child and encourage them.
The leaderboards compare players by total XP, weekly progress, best streak, age group, and even by family (combined sibling XP).
Only the public nickname (first name + family nickname) and the country flag are shown. The real first name never appears on its own.
