Military family organizations · KudoKids partner brief

Every PCS and every deployment resets routines to zero.

New school, new house, new friends — and the structure at home rebuilds from scratch. The parent holding it together solo is in survival mode, and homecoming resets everything again.

Honest answers

The first three questions benefit vetters ask.

Q

Is "free for military families" just another funnel or fake discount?

This isn't a military offer at all, and we say so: it's the same free plan every family in the country gets, year-round, with no verification hoops. Premium exists ($11.99/mo or $99/yr) and it's disclosed up front. The free plan isn't a teaser — routines, the full library of games, and a first companion are all included; Premium only adds the other themed worlds, companions, backgrounds, and companion looks and extras.

Q

Is there anything to buy, install, or set up for families?

No procurement, no contracts, no member data. Families sign up directly and the core app is free to use.

Q

We can't endorse products or imply DoD endorsement — what are you asking us to do?

We don't ask for endorsement and we don't use military branding. List it as information — a free family resource in the benefit database — with no org name on our materials, and no financial relationship: community partners earn nothing and owe nothing.
