The Family Store
Things your kids can buy with their Spend money, which you deliver.
What it is
Your own little shop of rewards: pick the Friday movie, an extra 30 minutes of screen time, a day off chores. Kids buy with their Spend jar; you deliver it.
Why it helps your kid
It gives Spend money something to buy that isn't more stuff, and teaches that choices have a price.
Where to find it
Home → Family Store.
How to do it
- Add an item: name, price, and optionally which kids, a weekly limit, or a minimum credit score. There's a list of ideas.
- A day-off item excuses that day's chores automatically.
- When a kid buys, it shows on Home under To deliver. Tap Done when you've delivered it, or Refund to put the money back in their Spend jar.
- Turn an item off instead of deleting it; its history stays.
What your kid sees
A Store with prices and what they can afford from Spend.
Questions parents ask
Is the money real?
It comes out of their Spend jar in the app. Since you deliver the reward yourself, no real money changes hands.
