hello! we collectively go by Pix, and this blog is for our regression/syskid activities. most of the posts will be from our system littles and regressors (aka mostly grian cuz he’s been wanting a blog to post little stuff on forever). we will post abt:
agere/syskid things
source things (hermitcraft + cookie run mostly)
worksheets
maybe some agere fic snippets + imagines?
we are bodily an adult, anyone can interact but keep this in mind. safe for work interactions only please!
The beautiful thing as you get older is that you realize so many “rules” are made up and you can just do whatever. Posters can go anywhere in the house not just my room. I can sit down while cooking a meal or taking a shower. I can make the same thing for breakfast lunch dinner for a week straight. I can roam around the house shirtless. I can wear a dress with jeans. The world is my oyster key word my and I can live as I please embracing little things such as this
What if age/pet regression headcanons for Bannerfall SMP...
:3
Apo usually tries to mask it, but she absolutely age regresses. I headcanon her little age to be around 6, maybe 7? She also probably gets cranky when shes tired and likes to play outside. She also is still very loyal to Soluna and probably still tries to protect Cherri despite being little.
Speaking of Cherri, she's Apo's caretaker. She's the only one Apo trusts to be around when she's regressing. Cherri actually takes great care of little Apo and makes up a bunch of fun games to play with her when shes regressed. When Apo unintentionally regresses in public, Cherri helps her feel safe even when she's scared, by saying things like "oh, she's pretty tired," or "I think we need to go, will be back later!" and tries to deflect questions.
Katie actually regresses subtly, and not often. The youngest she regresses to is about 11-12, and she's pretty subtle about it. She's told Cherri, Apo, Kitty, and 4C about it, and Graecie & Nom already know. The only time she's genuinely regressed out of stress/regressed younger than normal was after she killed the prince. She regressed to about 9 when that happened.
Kitty was taught what age regression is by Katie. They don't quite understand it fully, but if xe stumble upon someone whose regressed, he'll start treating them like a kitten. She's actually a fairly decent caretaker, at least by cat standards.
4C is actually a pet regressor. In this case, a puppy. He didn't used to have a caretaker and admittedly still feels a bit uncomfortable around others when regressed, but Nom (and later Mae) treat him gently. Despite Kitty usually being uncomfortable around dog-like behavior, fae actually thinks that 4C is cute when acting puppy-like. 4C is a quiet pup and also a defensive one, but when he's comfortable he's the sweetest little thing ever.
Graecie is an expert caretaker and knows a lot about regression, due to being alive for so long. She's a caretaker for most in the kingdom that she knows about the regression of; Nom, Scott, & Owain. She even cares for Katie when she's around & regressed, although she's somewhat comfortable letting Katie do her own thing if she's careful, since she doesn't regress as young as the others. She doesn't know about 4C's regression, and doesn't really know what to do with Eloise's, but she tries. She also cares for Mae if she asks her when Mae is age dreaming!
Speaking of El, she's another pet regressor but this one was mostly for fun; She's a swan regressor. Being a swan avian this was kind of expected. It was also mostly done for the sake of the bit, but it IS a legitimate headcanon I have. She usually spends most of her time in the pond, so she has a swimsuit for regression use only.
Mae isn't a regressor, but she IS an age dreamer! She enjoys acting small and being treated younger, especially when she's stressed. She does this partially for fun and partially as a coping mechanism for her lost past. When she's dreaming she likes to be called Mae-Mae. She usually doesn't dream any younger than 7 unless she's had a bad day, in which she'll go as young as 5.
Nom is similar to his sister in the sense that he doesn't regress often, but he does regress to be quite a bit younger, around 5-6. He likes spending time around his sister a lot more when he's little. Graecie is his primary caretaker when he's little. While little, he has a bit of a bratty streak and doesn't like following rules, but also doesn't like being yelled at. He's really cuddly when small.
Owain hates to admit it but he regresses quite often, he's just good at masking. He very rarely slips into little-space for non-stressful reasons, and doesn't like people knowing that he regresses. It's very hard for him to stop people who pay attention from knowing, since he regresses to as young as 2-3, however. Graecie found out about his regression after he had a panic attack a few days after arriving at the kingdom, and she was the only one around. Shan discovered accidentally on her 3rd day as ruler when she found him drawing in the dirt with a stick behind the castle. Kitty found him crying in the woods, and she started doing the closest to purring she still could to comfort him. Nobody else knows and he plans to keep it that way.
Scott regresses often and quietly. Most people don't notice since he's always nervous or quiet, but one of the clear signs he's regressed is if he gets fidgety. He regresses no younger than 4 and gets very sleepy when little. When he's not sleepy, he usually likes to color or just silently be near someone he trusts. He regressed even before his mom died, but it became more common after. Nom, Graecie, and (recently) Mae know. He doesn't actively mask, but he doesn't show a lot of outward signs of being little nor does he really talk about it.
Agere Activities for Little Scientists: A Masterpost
...that aren't just coloring! Brought to you by a caregiver and STEM major.
Below is an updating collection of websites for things to do when regressed that revolve around STEM. Activities include videos, experiments, worksheets, reading, crafts, and games. Fields include space/astronomy, physics, zoology, water science, anthropology, paleontology, ecology, biology, and more! I've separated them by reading comprehension needed, with green being dedicated for younger headspaces and yellow being websites for adults AND kids. All sites are AI free and completely SFW. Happy learning!
NASA
NASA has a tons of free opportunities you can learn about the planet, our solar system, and beyond! NASA+ has video series and is free and has no ads. On NASA Space Place, you can find tons of fun activities to explore the galaxy. NASA Kids is similar, but has a broader focus. On NASA's games & interactives page, you can get free 3D visualizations, games, tours, and even hear the sounds of space. They also have apps for both IOS & android.

American Museum of Natural History
Explore fun topics ranging from anthropology to water science to microbiology in games, reading, videos, and hands on activities you can print out on OLogy, their website made for kids.
*If possible, please check out and support your local museum. It's a great way to get involved and learn more about your community and what came before it. We don't bite!

Science Journal for Kids
Great resource primarily for teachers, but clicking on any of the lessons gives you access to the original academic paper, more resources, and a PDF with the lesson reading and discussion questions! It can be fun to go through a few and keep a journal of your thoughts. These lessons can individually come in higher and lower reading levels and you can sort by elementary-upper high school level.
SJFK Website
PBS
PBS Kids has an entire page dedicated to fun science games! They also have NOVA Labs where you can do interactive labs exploring RNA, weather, cybersecurity, evolution, space, and more. Some are animated and aimed at a younger audience.

Wild Kratts
I wouldn't have ever wanted to go into STEM if it weren't for these guys. The Kratt Brothers dedicate their lives to animal conservation and sharing it with younger generations. On their website, there are tons of free activities and games where you can learn about animals under the Play & Learn menu! They also have family-friendly videos as well.

PhET Interactive Stimulations
With options for every grade level, you can explore a ton of different concepts in chemistry, physics, earth science, biology, and math. While many of the activities require outside direction, you can still play around and find your way! Sometimes it can be more fun to observe and learn that way. :)
PhET Sims
National Geographic
Similar to PBS! The NatGeo Kids website has games, videos, and readings to explore a range of topics.

If you have any recommendations please let me know (submissions must be sfw, AI-free, and accessible)! Thanks for reading :)
fellow stem major here (astrophysics but interested in biology) -- thank u for this list so much!!! i love finding lists like this for regressors/littles that aren't only just things made for kids. both for subtlety reasons, and for the fact that a lot of our sys littles retain the educational knowledge that we've learned and a lot of worksheets and educational stuff passed around agere spaces is very basic and not very engaging for us worksheets ("what vowel goes here?" "count how many stars in the picture!" type stuff). we've had some trouble finding things that are more engaging for us and this is a very good list!
Stratt that definitely knows Grace is an age regressor so in his duffel she packs him a little toy and a teether of sorts. Grace opens it sees the toy and the teether and is like wuh??? Are these. From my kid or something??? Then he gets a flashback to definitely not being his big age playing with things in Stratt's office and he's like OH.
shoutout to "annoying" (not actually) littles btw:
- littles who talk a lot: chatty littles, you guys are so fun! i hope you get to a point where everyone in your life wants to hear everything you have to say :)
- littles who vocal stim/babble: i hope can you babble as much as you want, you're allowed to take up space!
- nonverbal littles: you aren't causing problems by being nonverbal, you arent a burden or "too much work"
- littles who have a hard time communicating their needs: you deserve to be heard, even if it takes you a while to say it <3
- littles who throw tantrums: big feelings are hard, and being little doesn't have to always be pretty and fun. its okay to feel big feelings!
- picky eaters: im proud of you for eating, and its okay to not always want to try new things! any food is better than no food, always 💙
- permaregressors: you are not a burden or a hassle just because you're little
- traumatized regressors: i know big feelings can get really scary and upsetting, and i promise its okay to feel them.
you're a good kid, bubs. dont let anyone tell you otherwise 💙
I'm still struggling with all of these, but imagining being a caregiver to my inner child has really helped me improve my self-love and reparenting journey.
As someone who grew up with depression and undiagnosed autism, these lists have been SO helpful.
🏠 Lot's of talk about disabeled littles, but what about disabled caregivers?..
Like yes hi, you wanna decorate my cane? knock yourself out kiddo
I'm not feeling too well to stand, so how about we have floor time?
Your big man has a bad hip kid, can't be running too much, so let's play SLOWWWW TAGGG where we have to SPEAAAKKK SLOOOWWW and RUNNN SLOOWWWW
