The 45-second tour
Less wondering. More wonder.
A wall of sticky notes, then one app for all of it: activities, the family planner, meals and a lot of paint. Turn the sound up.
psst: watch where the sticky notes go
The film opens on a wall of sticky notes, then asks: what do I do with them today? The planner, feed tracker, cookbook and activities come together in one app. Children play with mud, sand and paint, tagged with fine motor skills, creativity, mathematics, arts and sensory play. Mess made, memory kept. Extra learning, wherever you are. Projects that grow over time. The whole family's week. Yes, date night goes in the planner. Less wondering, more wonder. Try it free for 14 days at joyora.com.au.
Messy is the point.
Joyora is play-based, through and through. Paint on the table, cloud dough in their hair, then straight into the bath. That's where the learning happens, and it's where the best memories come from.
And there's no homework for grown-ups here. No scores, no report cards, nothing telling you you're behind. Skip a day or a week and there's nothing to catch up on. Joyora is here to make your days easier, not to add to the list.
Milestones, gently
- Turns book pages one at a time
- Jumps off the ground with both feet simultaneously
- Combines two or more words into simple functional phrasesNo rush. This one rolls over to the next birthday.
Milestones are for noticing, not testing. Anything still to come simply carries over.
The whole family's week, in one place.
Activities, appointments, naps and date night share one calendar. Tag which parent it's for, and the reminder lands on their phone at the time you pick.
- Day, week and month views
- A reminder on each tagged parent’s own phone
- Any activity or recipe goes in with one tap
