The Challenges
With specialization in offering age-appropriate children educational programs, our client, has an online Web portal; which helps Parents to rediscover the fun with their children through 1000s of challenging and innovative games.
The company provides challenging play-and-learn games customized as curriculum-based subscription plans to help parents in educating their children. Each curriculum is defined based on the learning profile and personality of the child that fall under different age-groups ranging from 2.5yrs to 6yrs. The client’s existing web application allows parents to subscribe for monthly, quarterly or annual plans. Upon subscribing, parents receive gift-wrapped monthly educational goodies comprising books, activity manuals, crafts, and toys.
However, the client wanted to extend their existing web portal business to mobile platform. A Cross-platform mobile app solution was needed. This would also help the company to create social clubs for parents grouped as per their child’s age and subscription plan. The mobile app would help the parents in engaging their children with fun-based play & learn activities. It enables them to perform various activities, including posting comment and sharing the media files related to the activities within the group and across social platforms like Facebook & Twitter. They can also register for the events & contests posted by the organizers. Further, the client also wanted to perform analytics on each child behavior with the activities.
