## What is My Gnome on the Roam?

My Gnome on the Roam offers daily inspiration for building family "together time" into even the busiest days. With this app and as little as 15 minutes, you can build stronger, happier and deeper connection with your kids while encouraging creativity and exploration.  Transform family time into an art form.  

Our focus will be to provide you all the tools and inspiration you need to create genuine moments of family engagement (GEMS).  Think of all the possibilities....with one click on your phone you can:
• Find the inspiration for a creative adventure that will fit snugly into 15 minutes
• Slow dawn long enough to spend real, quality time with your kids
• Strengthen your child's creativity and sense of adventure
• Buoy your child's sense of worth/esteem/well-being
• Actually, build new neural pathways in your child's brain (and yours as well)....more neural pathways=greater access to all the smarts you have locked away in various parts of your noggin!
Our daily messages will be focused on adventures....a new one each day.  And each will be an invitation to explore, create, contribute and connect.  From crafts to recipes to random acts of kindness, we will give you endless ideas from which to choose.  Make something on Monday, Tell me a story on Tuesday, get your Wanderlust on Wednesday....you get the idea.  

Meta-research shows that as little as 10 minutes of engaged connected time with family increases grades, self-esteem, lowers a child's chance of experimenting with drugs, alcohol, and can even improve behavior.

### 5/5 — Love this!!

*2023-11-30*

My Gnome on the roam is a lot of fun. My nieces and nephew really loved sitting down together and coloring our gnome and and naming them

### 2/5 — Just not for us.

*2023-06-20*

We got a free trial of this so we decided to give it a try. This is just not the kind of thing we would pay for. The first idea we saw was literally go to a park. Pretty sure I could come up with that on my own. 😂 The other ideas weren’t quite as bad or basic as that one (but close). I won’t miss this when the free trial expires.

### 5/5 — What a Awe inspiring App for all ages

*2023-04-28*

Needed this and I didn’t even know I was going to enjoy this experience creating app like the way we did ! Very nice to have and helpful to keep young at heart!

### 4/5 — ;)

*2022-10-17, version 2.4*

Ahhs

### 1/5 — Do NOT PURCHASE THIS APP!!!

*2022-04-10, version 2.2*

I bought this adorable gnome in a super cute store today and opened it up at home. Seeing I needed to purchase the app for some cute ideas I did even though it only has ONE REVIEW…I KNOW DUMB! They stole my $39.99 and now I can’t access the darn app at all. I have a kid sitting here sad because I promised him I’d let him see all the ideas they had to make this gnome super cute! HUGE disappointment!!!! Kinda disgusted they’d do this to a kids app!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2019-01-04, version 1.1*

For the people who want to download this app: This app helps you do crafts, games, and tons more! You may be confused at first, but you will understand more soon. It is amazing though!
For the creators: Thank you so much for making this app! We love playing with our gnome, Cooper. We mostly love putting our stories in the journal that it comes with!

### 5/5 — Smart way to get kids engaged

*2015-11-20, version 1.0.0*

The in-app journal allows kids to take notes about their adventures. It’s a modern diary and the daily prompt is a great reminder to make time with your kids.

### 5/5 — Help for busy moms!

*2015-10-31, version 1.0.0*

Such an easy way to get fun ideas for your family! Really cute ideas that take 30 minutes or less.
