Hello from Ripple
When a child welcomes Ripple, she says hello like this.
Hello! I’m Ripple, and I invent things! Most of my inventions go a bit wrong, like my bubble boat that floated up instead of along, but that’s the fun part. Tonight I’ve built a brand-new idea just for you. Shall we see what it does?

Ripple could join your child’s stories
Children earn stars by listening to stories and answering a few questions. When they’d like to welcome Ripple, a grown-up says yes, and she joins their stories from then on.
Welcoming Friends comes with a plan. On a free account, children still earn stars and keep them.
