Are your mornings a battle? Tiny Steps turns your child's daily routine into a visual experience they can follow on their own β€” without you repeating every single step. Built for kids ages 2–8, Tiny Steps uses real photos (of your own child doing their activities) to create routines they actually understand. WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH TINY STEPS β€’ Build personalized morning, bedtime, after-school, and custom routines β€’ Add your own photos or choose from our library of 30+ activities β€’ Let your child tap each step to mark it complete β€’ Set timers per step so time feels real and concrete β€’ Print the routine to stick on the fridge BUILT BY A MOM, FOR PARENTS Tiny Steps started as a physical system I made for my own daughter β€” printed photos on the refrigerator. This app is that same idea, in your pocket. Little by little, anything's possible.
