Ready Pop
Mornings kids can do themselves.
Ready Pop is a tiny routine app for young kids. Their morning tasks become balloons. Finish one, pop it. Keep going until the screen is empty and the morning is moving.
It's seriously that simple.
And that's on purpose.
The idea started at my house.
Young kids are perfectly capable of doing a surprising amount for themselves in the morning. The problem is remembering what comes next while an adult is also trying to get dressed, find the missing shoe, pack something, answer a question, and get everyone out the door.
I wanted something my own daughter could look at and understand without me narrating the entire morning.
So I built Ready Pop.
Each task is represented by a big visual balloon. When the task is done, the child pops it. The remaining balloons make it obvious what's left.
No complicated reward economy. No tiny menus. No dashboard a five-year-old has to decipher.
Just: do the thing, pop the balloon, keep it movin'.

Pop a task. Keep it movin'.
Ready Pop is designed for the kid using it, not the adult standing nearby.
The interface is visual, touch-friendly, and intentionally light on instructions. Kids can complete tasks in the order that works for them and see their progress immediately.
Build the morning your family actually has.
Every family's routine is different, so parents can choose the tasks that belong in theirs.
Brush teeth. Get dressed. Eat breakfast. Pack your backpack. Feed the dog. Whatever needs to happen before everyone heads out the door.
The routine can fit the child instead of forcing the child into someone else's routine.
Ready Pop is coming to iPhone, iPad, and Android.
Built for real mornings, including the ones where somebody can't find their pants.
