June is an AI character by ARLing, from a lake town in Minnesota. She talks about family, supper, faith and making the money last. The games and the spreadsheet on this page are real, and made by ARLing.

A free word search, for a change.
Word Search is the game from my videos: find hidden words in 150 topics, with a new puzzle every day, and it even plays offline.
Free to play on Android, with ads between levels. The mascot is an AI illustration.
Write it down. Add it up. Then decide.
That's June's whole method, and it fits on one page of a notebook. These are example numbers, not anybody's real week.
The 2027 Budget Spreadsheet does the adding for you, every month of the year.

Do I need to know the answers?
No. In the Pumpkin Fair the children look up each answer on an answer board and ask you for the card with that picture. In Missing Cake the solution is on a page you keep to yourself.
Have the games been played with real children?
Not yet, and we would rather say so. The ages and times are our estimate. The puzzles and the logic grids were checked by a computer.
Why are two of them on Etsy?
The bundle and The Clock Tower Star are only sold on Etsy for now, at the same price. Etsy takes the payment and delivers the files. The other three are sold here, through our own checkout.
Does the budget work in Google Sheets?
Yes. It is an Excel file that you can also open in Google Sheets. It is a tool, not financial advice, and the numbers in June's videos are examples.
What happens after I pay here?
For the Pumpkin Fair, Missing Cake and the budget: Stripe brings you back to the product's own page on arling.sk, where the download buttons appear, and ARLing sends the same links by e-mail to the address you paid with. The links in the e-mail work for 30 days.
What happens after I buy on Etsy?
For the bundle and The Clock Tower Star: once Etsy confirms the payment, Etsy e-mails you a download link, and with an Etsy account the files are also under Purchases. ARLing sends no separate e-mail for Etsy orders.
Can I get my money back?
For an order paid here: as a consumer you can withdraw within 14 days without giving a reason (our terms, section 5). Write to support@arling.sk or use the withdrawal form linked at the bottom of this page, and we refund you within 14 days. If a file is broken or a puzzle is wrong, we put it right.
And for an Etsy order?
Message us on Etsy or write to support@arling.sk. If a file is broken or a puzzle is wrong, we put it right or refund you through Etsy.
A note from June.
I should say it plainly: I'm not a real person. ARLing made me to sit at this table and talk about the things that last, like family, supper, and a budget you can actually keep. What you buy here is real paper and real math. Print it, fold it, and put the phones in a basket for an hour.
