Step by step
-
1
Kids earn points for every routine they finish.
-
2
As a parent, open Rewards and tap New Reward. Give it a name, set the points and choose who can earn it.
-
3
Kids open their rewards and tap Set as focus on the one they want most. It shows on their home page with a progress bar.
-
4
With enough points, they tap the reward card on their home page, then Request.
-
5
Parents open All Requests from their own phone or computer and approve or reject each request.
-

Approving takes the points off and the reward is theirs. Rejecting needs a reason, and the kid keeps the points.
-
7
Kids see every answer, and who approved it, under Requests.
