How Parent Notes help you coach Learn & Play exercises

What Parent Notes are for

Tomorrow Kid’s Parent Notes are short coaching tips attached to Learn & Play exercises. Open the ⋯ menu on an exercise card, tap Parent Notes, and you get an Exercise Details sheet: cover photo, description, age range, difficulty level, category, and the coaching note itself. When no note is attached, the sheet still shows the exercise facts and a calm empty state—“No notes available for this exercise.”

This is scaffolding for adults, not a second activity for kids. It sits beside Daily Goal / My Progress (habit tracking) and the Sticker Book (rewards) without replacing either.

How the coaching sheet works

1. On a Learn & Play exercise card, tap the ⋯ menu (bottom-right of the card)
2. Choose Parent Notes (note icon)—the sheet title is Exercise Details
3. Skim age range, difficulty (“Level …”), and category chips so the activity matches your child
4. Read the Parent Notes body when present; use it to model the first turn or decide whether to sit nearby
5. Tap Done to close—notes ride with the exercise content (including cached offline records)

Parent Notes are coaching. Report a problem is a separate menu item for bugs or feedback—do not confuse the two.

A calm way to introduce it at home

1. Before your child starts a new exercise, open Parent Notes once and read the tip yourself.
2. Share one concrete cue out loud (“watch the letter, then swipe”) instead of narrating the whole sheet.
3. If the empty state appears, use the age and difficulty chips to decide whether to stay or step back.
4. Leave the sheet closed during play so the child’s screen stays the play surface.

What to try next

Use Parent Notes when a new exercise feels unfamiliar, then lean on Daily Goal for “enough for today” and My Progress for a weekly glance. When you are ready, open Tomorrow Kid, find an exercise card, and open Parent Notes from the ⋯ menu before the first play.
