AND THE KIDS LOVE IT TOO

With 4 offers from the hit TV series Dragons’ Den, the Hire and Fire Your Kids app is like nothing else you can find today. It’s not another chore app, it’s a ONE OF A KIND PARENTING APP!

Frustrated with your kids not listening or their lack of help around the house? Tired of repeating yourself about manners and hygiene? Using recognition, reward and consequence, our app is a unique way to help keep your sanity while teaching kids about the real world. With our gamified system to manage behaviours and chores your kids will be motivated to help around the house while learning the value of a dollar as they track allowance and avoid any consequences.

By giving kids the opportunity to be contributing members of a team through daily jobs and expectations, research suggests we're preparing them to be successful individuals in the real world.

HOW IT WORKS:
HIRED (chores) - Parents post jobs for HIRE around the house and kids learn to take initiative by applying to job board and completing selected jobs to earn cash allowance or rewards.

FIRED (behaviours) - Family expectations or rules are set and measured on a daily basis to drive awareness. Catch your kid not following an expectation and give them a warning x. Too many x’s? Go ahead and FIRE your kid! Children learn quickly that their behaviour leads to recognition or consequences in this playful gaming format.

Object of the Game is for the players (kids) to finish each Pay Period without getting fired and earn the incentive ‘Not Fired’ and ‘Teamwork’ Bonuses making them eligible for the Employee of the Month.

Kids are BEGGING to play so they can earn cash or rewards while feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment.

BENEFITS FOR PARENTS:
NO MORE NAGGING, YELLING or TALKING BACK - let the app work its magic, with in-app reminders and messages.
CHORES KIDS CHOOSE TO DO - post jobs for Hire and customize to the rolling job board, kids go in and apply to take a job(s) each new pay period.
EMPOWER YOUR KIDS - the app uses pro-active behaviour, making them feel more accountable and engaged, less chore reminders from you.
COMPLETELY CUSTOMIZABLE - everything from jobs to expectations. Use your family values and rules in a digital format.

BENEFITS FOR KIDS:
FUN - designed to engage the kids.
EARN REWARD - kids receive a payday, can be dollars or other types of rewards from you.
POSITIVE RECOGNITION - a digital pat on the back as a notification to their device.
GIVE THE GIFT OF LIFE SKILLS - feeling accomplished, proud, happy, learning the value of an earned dollar, learning responsibility, strong work ethic, becoming prepared for the future.
PART OF A TEAM - siblings help each other out so they can all earn the extra Teamwork Bonus and keep from getting Fired.

I am loving this app so far, but it needs work. I wish I could have jobs only available to one kid (such as one has a pet, the other doesnt, so cleaning up after it isn't for everyone). It is terribly slow. Not enough to make me want to ditch it...yet. I also wish there was a way to set default settings for all the jobs, not change them all individually. It would also be helpful to have active/inactive jobs. Ones that can be saved and posted as needed, instead of creating a new one each time.

D/L'd a few others but this 1 is a winner. 12 yo is just motivated to do house chores he's willing to work for. I'm sure he thinks he's earning serious $ doing chores. The apps responsibility template is a good overall list of house rules. Better than I can write myself & I can adjusted a few of the house rules. The UI isn't pretty like others, not very intuitive, but can work around it. App does randomly crash, but I'm willing to overlook as it's free and it works great. Room for improvement.

Just started using the app. I really think it's a great idea and honestly worth 5 stars, but it's very slow and frustrating. Have to wait for the app to load during startup, you start to wonder if it's already locked up and nothing is going to happen. It takes so long to choose a picture, seems to load forever. Then it just locks up completely. My phone is super fast so I was surprised. I tried it on the rest of the family's devices and we all are very slow. Fix that and definitely 5 stars.
