Habit-forming for kids made easy: Feedback Required.

Hi, IH Parents,

My first post on IH.

I have built an app (dinostar.app) for helping kids build habit-forming routines. I am using the Cue - Action - Reward framework for developing habits.

I want to get feedback on two things:

1. The idea -
1.a. To fully realize the habit-forming loop, we will send the kids a poster with a theme (e.g. forest, or outer-space) which acts as a cue to activities they have to do to earn a reward.
1.b. The app is used to list, and track the activities. Virtual stickers (see Well Done image for reference) are then given as rewards.
1.c. Once a month we will be sending in surprise stickers for the kids to fill it up in the poster we already sent them. Filling up the poster with colorful stickers again acts as a cue for further activities and rewards.

2. The app -
The link to the app is in this post. If you can set up the app for your kids and reward them with stickers, let me know how it works for them.

I would love feedback in any form or fashion.

      Hi There, I have had great success with my kids 6yr old and 2yr old. In the early beta happening I have got good feedback for 8yr old as well. Also, we have a very simple sticker set as a reward now. Once we expand on the variety (think animated stickers), I am sure the 8 - 10 yr olds will also love it.

      Let me know if you would like me to walk you through the app. Sign up here - https://dinostar.app
