Carrots&Cake
Carrots&Cake is a science-based app that makes screen time healthier for kids. Parents select educational apps from the App Store. When kids turn on their device, those are the only apps they can access. After kids finish the learning tasks, the device unlocks, and kids enjoy free time. This approach benefits kids’ developing pre-frontal cortex. It balances dopamine levels, introduces delayed gratification, and develops self control, resilience, and grit while countering the persuasive design of apps that keep kids hooked. Kids have fewer screen time tantrums, and parents can hand over devices guilt-free.
