COVID-19

One of the main challenges parents are facing is how to keep a healthy routine for their kids, what activities to do, what assets can they use and share ideas with other parents... A lot of private WhatsApp groups sharing assets, examples of day planning and even notifications about remote events (live concerts for kids, etc...).

The idea is to create an app where all can contribute, sharing and getting new assets to use to plan kids new home routines. The app will have the sections:

- Contents: set of contents uploaded by the users with categorization by age and type of content (e.g. Math, Gramar, Music, , Games, Books, Gym...)

- Day Planner: virtual schedule where the kids and parents can plan the day and track the achievements (share those plans with other users too)

- Upcoming Event Information feed: information about upcoming events (like Live Concerts through YouTube or Facebook...)

Besides the app there is a need to create a simple backoffice: in order to ensure that all the uploaded content is appropriate for kids a backoffice to approve the publication of the assets should be created. The community should name a group of persons that would be responsible to approve the contents (already have a lot of volunteers...)

Consider adding a Content-Type or Category, so we can search for events by category. 

The category should have a hierarchical structure, like Computer Games => Minecraft,  Tetris.  

Merged this idea with 'COVID-19 | Activity ideas for parents - keeping kids entertained' (created on 16 Mar 2020 21:59:53 by Chris O'Connor)

With the need for social isolation, and kids being at home - possibly for weeks - and no schools, there will be a lot of bored kids.

Rather than just play Fortnite or MineCraft, it would be good for parents to share ideas and activities for kids.

Eg.  Arts & Crafts, and games to play indoors - people could add photos and videos clips.  

Each activity could be tagged, with an age group, and "type" of activity.

I have three kids - and have set them tasks of drawing, and even creating a story - being creative - and using their brain.    And maths quiz'es also.

This type of app is very important because there has to be difference between e-Learning Portal vs a school that can be as live as possible. i have a interest in seeing the day planner building up to a more flexible and guided learning path.
