Mindful Monkey Kids

A self-care app for kids 6 and up

Berry helps kids learn self-regulation through mindfulness.

Mindful Monkey Kids turns small daily habits and lessons based in cognitive behavioral therapy into a game. Kids check off goals like “Take 3 deep breaths” or “Notice 5 things around me,” do short meditations, and practice gratitude to build calm, confidence, and kindness one day at a time.

Coming soon to the App Store for iPhone. Free for 3 days, then $4.95 a month.

Meet Berry

A little purple monkey who's always happy to see you.

“Hi friend! I'm so happy to see you. Let's get started!”

Berry talks with kids in a warm, friendly voice, celebrates every goal they finish, and breathes, stretches and checks in on feelings right alongside them.

Hello, I'm Berry

How it works

Little goals. Full bananas. A happy monkey.

Every day

Pick a few goals

Kids choose goals that fit their day, from “Make my bed” to “Say one kind thing to myself.” A parent can help set them up.

Do 3 a day

Fill Berry up

Each finished goal or activity gives Berry bananas. Three a day fills Berry up and moves them one step along their path.

Over time

Earn and grow

Quests earn jewels for hats, bows and treats in the shop, while Berry's skills, like resilience and confidence, grow with every goal.
