Help kids start tasks without nagging or shutdowns
Starting is usually the hardest part. Sidekick is designed for initiation with low-friction first steps and recovery paths.
Why this keeps happening
- • Initiation-focused design for routines and daily tasks.
- • Progress survives imperfect days through soft streak behavior.
- • Parents intervene only when signals indicate real need.
How Sidekick helps
Example: Child freezes before a routine. Sidekick proposes a single starter action and keeps progress stable even if the plan needs to shrink.
FAQ
Is this a reward chart?
No. Sidekick uses privilege cards and flexible routines to reduce friction, not scorekeeping or bribes.
Do parents need to monitor constantly?
No. Parents get quiet reassurance and only step in when it actually matters.
What happens on hard days?
Kids can pause, shrink, or defer steps so momentum can recover without harsh resets.
