A question a day. That's the whole idea.
No app to master, no streak to protect. Just one honest, open-ended question, tuned to a child.

"What would you invent if rain fell upward?"
An 8-year-old in Leeds designed an 'upside umbrella' — a net on a stick to catch rain before it reached the sky. She built a paper model of it that afternoon.
Tuned to where she is, not just how old she is.
Sensory wonder — what things look, sound and feel like.
Cause and effect — how and why things work the way they do.
Fairness and systems — how the world could be built differently.
Identity and impact — what she wants to make of all this.
She reads the spark out loud at breakfast now. Some mornings that's the only quiet conversation we get.
