Ukrainian for kids, in your family’s voice
For families from Ukraine raising children who will grow up speaking another language at school. Maata teaches the Ukrainian your family uses at home — and your child hears it from you, their grandparents and the people they love.

Little talks in Ukrainian
Short two-person conversations. Your child listens first, then says their part while a family voice answers.
- Babusya calls — Babusya calls you on the phone.
- What's your name? — Didus's friend meets you.
- At the table — Mama is serving dinner.
- Let's play — Your big brother wants to play.
- What happened? — You fell down. Tato runs over.
- Bedtime — It's late, and Mama says it's time for bed.
- Can I help? — Tato is carrying the shopping in.
- School morning — Mama wakes you up for school.
In your family’s voice
- Record any word once — your child hears you in every lesson.
- Grandparents abroad install Maata free, record, and send their voice by WhatsApp.
- Add your family’s own words: pet names, family dishes, the things grandma always says.
We wrote these words carefully for everyday family talk, and native-speaking parents are checking them now. If your family says something differently, tap the word to fix it and record it your way.
