A lane
The Healer lane
Bodies, helpers, kindness. Doctor and vet play, first-aid routines, and how the body works. Lanes never change the bones of the week; they add one concrete tilt toward what your kid loves, at every age.
You might be here if…
- Notices when someone is hurt or sad, and goes to them
- Loves the doctor kit, the band-aid, the checkup
- Cares for stuffed animals like patients
Not sure? Start in Explorer. Squad Brain watches what your kid returns to and you can switch lanes anytime from your Family page.

Twelve weeks of Healer tilts in the Toddler Squad
Week 1
👋 Hello, Squad!

🚗 Wheels & Roads
The pit stop is a car checkup: 'Let's listen to the engine' with the toy stethoscope.
Week 4
💧 Water & Weather
Sick-day kit: make a pretend soup and a warm blanket for a stuffed animal with a 'cold'.
Week 5
🦋 Bugs & Butterflies
