“The 7 pm fight is gone. The page is on the table before the tablet goes off.”

Chris, dad of 2

Quick answers

Can they really play alone?

Yes. Each game is one action, shown with numbered pictures and an example from Pip. Answers check themselves: a wrong letter makes a word that makes no sense.

Is it the right level?

Ages 6 to 9. Games start easy and climb zone by zone. For 3–5 pick Unblue Rookie, for 10–14 Unblue Legend.

When does it arrive?

The printed book is made to order and arrives in 5–8 business days in the US, 3–5 in the UK, and 7–12 in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The PDF lands in your inbox instantly, so with Book + PDF they start tonight.

What if it doesn’t work?

If your child doesn’t ask for the next page within 30 days, email us and we refund you. Keep the book.

A child alone in a dark room, face lit blue by a screen Tonight, in millions of bedrooms.

Their attention is being taken. We're taking it back.

7.7×more attention problems at age 5 with 2+ hours of screens a day.Tamana et al., PLOS ONE, 2019 (a link, not proof of cause)

Every app on that tablet was built by a team paid to keep your child watching. Your kid isn't weak. They're outnumbered. Unblue is the other side.

The Blue-to-Paper Swap
1Pick the screen moment. The switch-off, the car ride, the wait before dinner: the moment that always ends in a fight.
2Swap it for a page. Put the page on the table before the tablet goes off. Bright and game-like, it wins that exact moment.
3Watch them unblue. The page ends by itself, with a win. They look up proud, and you get your kid back.

A 5-hour flight and not one ‘can I have the iPad.’ He did three mazes before the snacks came.

She does her page before the bus now. Nobody asked her to, it just became her thing.

He reads the story part to the dog first, then solves the page. The dog seems invested.

We took it to the park instead of the tablet. She stayed on the blanket for 20 minutes.

He begged for ‘one more page’ at bedtime. Never heard that about anything without a screen.

Day 9 and the orange pencil is almost gone. The answers check themselves, so I don’t have to.

Inside the mission: 4 zones, 4 brain skills.

One page a day, 10 minutes. Each zone ends with a guardian challenge, and the last page opens the Gate.

Pip the fox points at the 4 zones of the mission
FocusZone 1 · Whispering WoodsLook-left foxes, 7 changes, color codes, hidden words.
MemoryZone 2 · Echo CavesLook, turn the page, remember. Walk the path from memory.
PlanningZone 3 · River RapidsMazes, stepping stones, the shortest way, a shape bridge.
LogicZone 4 · Thinking PeakWhat comes next, picture sudoku, odd one out, who has what.

Why it works when “no more screens” doesn't

1You replace, you don’t remove.Taking the tablet away creates a void. A page waiting on the table fills it in one move.
2Every page ends.The feed never ends, so you have to end it, and that’s the fight. A page ends by itself, with a win.
3Ten minutes is the whole ask.Short enough for a busy brain. Long enough for you to breathe.
4It climbs with them.A little harder in every zone, so it’s never boring and never “I can’t.”

The 7 pm fight is gone

Every night at 7 it was the same war over the tablet. Now the page is on the table before the screen goes off, and she sits down on her own. Ten minutes later she is proud, and I am calm.

Chris R.Verified buyer
Road-trip saver

Four hours in the car and not one “can I have your phone”.

Sarah M.Verified buyer
He asked for the next page

He has ADHD and never finishes anything. Puzzles, crafts, homework: all dropped halfway. This one he finished, then asked for the next page. I almost cried.

James T.Verified buyer
Over the tablet. Twice.

My 7-year-old picked the secret-letter page over the tablet. Twice this week.

Mike D.Verified buyer
Started the same night

Printed the PDF after dinner. She was on page 3 before bath time. The book came later that week and she was already hooked.

Maya J.Verified buyer
Quiet bedtime again

One page in bed instead of a show. Bedtime is quiet again.

Laura B.Verified buyer
We want more pages

She finished all 32 pages in a month. 4 stars only because we want the next book.

Nina K.Verified buyer
A teacher and a mom

I teach 2nd grade. The color-code pages are exactly the focus work I wish we had time for in class. I bought one for my own son.

Rachel P.Verified buyer
One for each grandkid

I sent one to each of my 3 grandkids. Now they call me on Sundays to show me their pages. Best gift I have given in years.

David K.Verified buyer
He shows me every page

He never does that with a game.

Tom W.Verified buyer
The gift that gets used

Bought it for my granddaughter’s birthday. Her mom says it is the only present that came out every single day.

Linda G.Verified buyer
10 quiet minutes

A pencil, a proud kid, 10 minutes. Exactly what we needed.
