KidsDiary vs Tiko First

KidsDiary is an iOS app that enables parents to receive their child’s daily reports (attendance detail, class/school reminder, event schedule), and child’s growth progress (daily individual pictures, class group pictures, daily learning reports) from infant class to Kindergarten class at school. KidsDiary reduces the paper usage at school, provides one stop for all communication needs for teachers at school and improves communication effectiveness between parents and school, teachers and director. The main features are: 1. Parents receive child’s report email with child’s photos on a daily basis. 2. Class pictures can be assigned to all children or selected children. 3. Parents keep track of child’s growth progress with daily learning/activity reports. 4. Attendance report is available for parents. 5. School event reminder effectively engages the parents. 6. Instant messaging among school director, teachers and parents.

Tiko First turns a routine into pictures a child can follow on their own. You build the steps — first the toilet, then brush teeth, then get dressed — and your child sees one big picture at a time, hears it spoken aloud, and taps to cross it off. The next step slides in and gets its own little celebration; finishing the whole routine gets a big one. Steps are crossed off in order, because that is the point: First tells a child what happens now and what comes next. Tapping ahead simply says that step out loud, it never skips the queue. Change your mind? The last tick can always be undone. - One big step at a time: picture, short title, spoken in your language - An ordered strip shows what is done and what is coming - Eight routines ready to use: morning, bedtime, going out, mealtime, bath time, tidy up, school day, and a first/then board to duplicate - Every routine and step is editable — your own words, your own pictures, including photos of your child's own shoes, bathroom or bag - Morning and bedtime start fresh each day; other routines pick up where they stopped, even after a force-quit - Pin the routine you are doing now and the app opens straight into it — perfect with Guided Access - Speaks English, Dutch, French, Spanish, German and Maltese - No microphone, no camera, no ads, no scores, no accounts — works offline after first use - Child mode keeps the editing out of small hands Tiko First is part of Tiko, a child-first universe of small, focused communication and learning tools.
