Try this: Keep the main benefit brief and use supporting visuals to explain the available choices.
The tooth-brushing activity shows what an interactive app for kids can look like in use.
Try this: Turn a broad category label into a concrete example by featuring one recognisable activity.
The character options demonstrate customisation while the headline names the tool that enables it.
Try this: When choice is the feature, show several outcomes and name the control users will use.
