Field notes
The exercise is structured as 36 motifs ordered by difficulty, with three passes for each: trace the pattern, continue after the guide fades, then draw it independently on a dot grid. Children can change the square size and request the next line without any progress being counted. The page states that drawings, settings, and level reached stay on the device, and that the application continues to work offline once loaded.
