Just launched an endless Mad Libs style fill-in-the-blank story generator. My kiddos (and we parents) love the format, but we never carried around the paper booklets, and this way we can write them about whatever we want (obviously mostly spaceships and farts). I built out a family library so everything's synced regardless of which parent drove to practice that day.
Getting all the product right (ish) around multiple devices, family invites, installing on kid devices, etc. was way more difficult than the actual generator. But I get darn-near furious when I'm just trying to get an app on a kid's iPad and I have to manually type passwords four different times, so making that smooth was worth it.
It seems to love locking doors. I was hoping this would dim the lights.

More things than I meant to, but one's live and three are landing soon. I quit someone else's work a little while back, spent some time building a game that I'll get back too to the extent I can support myself, and then started a things-I-want-and-others-might-want-too studio.
https://sponder.app (Live) - an RSS and podcast mutator. Filter feeds for what you want, merge, time-delay, and drip articles on a cadence (I like to start from feeds' beginnings). For podcasts, detect similar metadata to previous releases so you can skip reruns.
https://tellmeapenguin.com (Close! Come help test it) - Endless mad libs about whatever you want, and if it's a good story, you can keep writing more chapters. The kiddos love it, and you can share back and forth with grandparents and whatnot to keep sillily in touch.
https://nounogram.com/ (Web is live, apps soon) - Hybrid nonogram and crossword puzzles. Shade the grid to find the layout, then add the words where they fit. I built it to make the kiddo practice handwriting, and then it was more fun than I expected.
https://getyarnt.com (Free until I ship the Stripe integration) - A task tracker that's actively hostile towards you having tasks. Started as a joke, but I'm using it to track my own stuff and really enjoying it. If you have a manager who likes assigning you work, tell them to get Yarnt!
All of it's on https://hahamoment.dev/ in the likely event you don't need any of this but do want to turn on a light.
