I've been doing something sort of similar.

Here
 Reader Survey
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1AorA0wHFxhEGY_qqhmlVrNwvLFcGamyWHTTezE3kHOs/edit?usp=drive_web>
is my 3-5 checkout survey and

 6-12 Reader Survey
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1cOZWmtdVUg5171xUE3TYl24FpEpox1sy7KO4o8OTk6U/edit?usp=drive_web>

here is my 6-12.

I should consider one for parents to fill out for their k-2 kids. We're
only currently planning to be remote for two more weeks... but we'll see
when January comes, I guess.
