KudoKids For parents of kids 3–12
The screen-time problem

You already gave
them the screen.
You just want it to count.

Your kid is on a screen more than you'd like — and the hard part isn't taking it away. It's finding something worth handing them instead.

A growing library of games — fun that teaches.

KudoKids How it works
How it works

Kids earn their screen time.

They do real things — routines, tasks, responsibilities — and earn Kudo Coins. In your parent dashboard you decide what those coins buy in off-app screen time, so kids can only cash in the time you've already okayed. Say yes without the guilt.

1

Do the thing

Finish a routine or task you set up.

2

Earn coins

Real effort earns Kudo Coins in the app.

3

Redeem time

Trade coins for screen time you allow.

KudoKids Safety & privacy
Safe by design

Built to earn your trust.

  • No ads shown to kids. No banners, no "watch this to earn" deals.
  • We never sell your child's data. Not to advertisers, not to anyone.
  • No AI is used for kids in the app. What your child plays with is made by people, for kids.
  • No contact from strangers. No open chat and no way for outsiders to reach your child.
A dashboard you can see into

Approvals, progress, and screen-time settings all live with you — visibility without hovering. You can even export a child's progress to share with a professional.

Recommended by experts

Recommended by child-development experts — and therapists put it in the hands of the families they work with, following each child's progress through the reports you can export for them.

Built by a parent and founder-funded — no outside investors deciding what your kid sees.

KudoKids Honest answers
The two questions you're asking

The honest answers.

"Isn't this just more screen time?"

No — because you set what coins are worth, and they run out. Trade them for a set amount of off-app screen time you're fine with, or real-world rewards like a park trip — your call. Either way it's finite, so kids earn, spend, and step away.

"What does it cost?"

Nothing to start — no card. The free plan includes routines, the full library of games, and your first companion. Premium ($11.99/mo or $99/yr) just adds the other themed worlds, companions, backgrounds, and companion looks and extras kids unlock with earned coins.
