Small changes in Little favorites: one category at a time

The actual Little Workshop board in gugiboard, one category that can be managed through Little favorites

A large change is not always necessary. Little favorites offers smaller choices alongside its hide-all action, so an adult can adjust one part of gugiboard while leaving the rest familiar. This can be convenient when a child enjoys the overall board but repeatedly returns to a single object. The aim is optional variety, not stopping a child from enjoying repetition.

Choose the category you want to review

Open Little favorites and select a category such as Little Workshop. Its tap total and ranked items help you see the recorded interactions for that board family. Review the available objects before changing anything. A category can contain targets from its extra sheets as well as its first sheet; the report is broader than one visible arrangement.

Hide this category’s visible favorite

The category action hides the most-tapped target that is still visible in the selected category. This is a smaller intervention than hiding every touched item. It can leave a familiar setting while offering room for other choices. Confirm the action only when you want that change, and keep in mind that the ranking is not a learning assessment.

One favorite per category is different

The across-category action hides one currently visible favorite in each category with recorded taps. It does not hide every item in those categories. This distinction helps you choose the scale of the change: one board family, one favorite in several families, or all touched board targets. None of these actions removes the historical tap counts.

Restore only what you need

The category restore arrow brings back hidden items in the selected category. “Show everything again” restores them across all categories, while “Undo” reverses the latest hide or restore. These options let an adult make a temporary adjustment without rebuilding the whole experience. If a favorite is missed, bringing it back can be the simplest and kindest response.

Connect variety with real objects

After a brief workshop session, notice a safe flashlight or a child-safe brush together. Do not use the digital pictures as permission to handle sharp tools or loose batteries. The useful link is a shared word or observation, not a demand to master the board. Small changes on a screen should remain optional alongside plenty of real-world play.
