For parents
Pumpkin Candle turns Peko into a flickering candle light that tells spooky stories in the voice of a talking jack-o'-lantern. There are five stories of about five minutes each, spooky but gentle, and the current story repeats until your child picks another. Your child can also pick the light color. The stories download once over Wi-Fi and are saved on Peko, so after that it works without internet. No microphone, no AI, nothing sent anywhere.
