WHY KINSOME?

The Kinsome app provides the emotional scaffolding kids need to reflect on their daily experiences and turn them into thoughtful, shareable updates.

Over time, these small exchanges become the foundation for deep, healthy relationships with the people who matter most.

Research shows that positive attention from loving adults is among the most important ingredients for helping kids thrive educationally, emotionally, and socially.

Healthy Screen Time

Designed for short (~10 min), routine (1-2X/wk) sessions

Activities are creatively and intellectually stimulating

Social to its core! Kinsome helps build real bonds with the people who matter most

Safe & Private

No advertisements, no selling user data.

Only parents can add or remove people from a child's "village" and they can see every exchange in the app.

Each family’s data is entirely siloed from others. We protect your data at all times using industry standards for data encryption at rest and in transit.

Enriching, yet Fun!

Kids just want to have fun, so we start there.

But interwoven with the entertainment are critical lessons on self-reflection, gratitude and resilience.

Activities are grounded in leading SEL research and co-designed with industry experts (see below)!
