In the form of an educational game, your child will have to help a little cloud to reach the sea by winning challenges and quizzes. Learning while having fun is also the credo of Cahiers de Vacances, always with course reminders before starting a new challenge. All subjects are covered and the child will be able to revise his lessons in a fun and educational way.

Brevet, Bac, Sup 2020 - Nomad Education
For college and high school students and students of higher levels, Nomad Education has also developed an application which adapts to each school level and which respects the National Education program. And what's more, the app is 100% free.
Here, the revisions come in the form of multiple choice questions and not as a video game. Less fun but just as educational and well done, this application reviews the main concepts of the school program with specific exercises for the 3ème and Terminale levels, for the Brevet and the Bac. Brevet, Bac, Sup 2020 also offers exercises and lesson reviews to prepare diplomas for higher levels such as BTS, DUT, CAP, license, Prépas, etc. to use all year round to increase your average.
Note that for these higher levels, a specific "My Future" space is available to view your strengths and weaknesses, and possibly choose an orientation for your future profession.

Bayam
Bayam is the cross-platform application that appeals to all children, not only because it allows them to follow their favorite cartoons (Tom-Tom and Nana, Mortelle Adèle, Yakari, etc.) but also because they can play, participate in workshops, listen to music (stories, or English) and discover lots of new things. Less focused on academic revisions, Bayam presents itself in a much more fun way than the others, but obviously favors quality educational content for curious children. Your children learn new concepts and open up to science while having fun. The application presents new themes every week, here are a few examples: playing sport, how it works, the 4 elements, learning English ... Your child will be able to select what he wants to do and not will not feel that they are being forced to exercise or review lessons. He will be able to play with his favorite heroes and watch smart videos on lots of different topics.
Bayam has a free version with a limited amount of content but already sufficient to see its quality. It will take a paid subscription to go further and have additional options such as saving drawings or managing usage time.

Kartable
For students from CE1 to Terminale, the Kartable application is also very well done but does not offer a playful and fun universe. This is really about reviewing a lesson and doing exercises to improve your academic level. To motivate the child to succeed in his exercises, a system of rewards has still been put in place.
Each school level presents all the general subjects to be studied during the year. The child then just has to select the subject and then the lesson he wishes to revise, which will be followed by ten questions to check that everything has been understood, assimilated and acquired.
Available for iOS and Android, Kartable can be downloaded and installed for free but not all content will be accessible, you will have to take a paid monthly or annual subscription to benefit from the 50,000 fixes and be able to download the content for offline use.
