What 9 year olds are learning
Most children this age are working on multiplication and division, longer words, fractions and reading for meaning. Peabody's games, stories and practice follow 4th grade, and a child can pick a different grade at any time. See the reading and math pages for 4th grade for the details.
Where Peabody starts a 4th grade child, the questions are times tables, division, number sense, vocabulary, spelling, adding and taking away. The games on this page most focused on those are Pet Hatch, Rocket Number Blast and Cell Break. Each one moves up as the answers come right.
A few games for older kids are left off this list. The rest are in the arcade.
Questions parents ask
Are these games really free?
Yes. Every game is free through the end of 2026, with no ads, no download and no sign-up to start playing.
Are the games safe for a 9 year old?
The games on this page are made for children: no ads, no ad networks and no typing to other people. A grown-up can set time limits from the parent console. Peabody never asks a child for a name or an email to play. See how Peabody keeps kids private.
Is this just for the classroom or for home?
Both. It works on a computer, tablet or phone, so it suits a rainy afternoon at home or a quiet corner of a classroom. Homeschooling families can use it as part of a free homeschool plan.
Which game should a 9 year old start with?
Whichever they ask for. For one that practises what 4th grade children start on, try Pet Hatch, Rocket Number Blast and Cell Break. Each starts easy and moves up only when the answers come right.
Do I need to tell Peabody my child's age?
No. Peabody never asks a child's age. When a game asks for a grade, pick 4th grade; the questions start there, and a child can pick a different grade at any time.
