Getting started
Welcome to Mommy & Me Making Memories — the app designed to turn every family trip into a learning adventure. Follow these steps to set up your family profile and start exploring.
Create your family profile
Tap the profile icon in the top right. Add your name, photo, and your children's names, ages, and interests. The app uses this to personalize every recommendation.
Browse the Destination Explorer
Head to the Experiences tab to discover places filtered by region, theme, or your children's age group.
Save your favourites
Tap the bookmark icon on any destination or activity to save it to your list for later.
Build your first trip
Open the Trip Planner, enter your dates and destination, and let the app build your family itinerary.
Dr. Wilson recommends: let your child help choose one activity on every trip. Giving them ownership of the decision boosts engagement and excitement.
Trip Planner
The Trip Planner builds personalized, day-by-day itineraries that balance fun with learning. It factors in your children's ages, your destination, and the learning themes you care about.
Open Trip Planner
Find it in the main navigation bar at the top of the screen.
Enter your details
Add your destination, travel dates, and number of children. The app will auto-fill ages from your profile.
Choose learning themes
Pick from Culture, Nature, Community, Creativity, or Movement to shape your itinerary.
Review & save
Edit any stop, reorder your days, and save or share the final itinerary.
Memory Board
Your Memory Board is your family's living scrapbook. Every trip, every photo, every reflection your child writes lives here — ready to revisit anytime.
Tap the Memory Board icon
Found in the Experience Corner section of the app.
Add a new memory
Tap the + button, add a photo, date, location, and a short title.
Write a reflection
Add your own note or let your child dictate one. Reflections can be tagged by skill: curiosity, teamwork, creativity, and more.
Browse & revisit
Filter memories by trip, skill tag, or date. Share individual memories or whole trips with family.
Dr. Wilson's tip: ask your child "what's one thing you'll always remember about today?" right after an adventure — their answers make the most meaningful Memory Board entries.
Learning Activities
Every destination in the app comes with curated learning activities designed by Dr. Wilson and her team of educators. Each activity includes a parent guide and a child reflection prompt.
Find activities by tapping any experience card, then scrolling to the Activities section inside the modal. You can save activities to your Trip Planner with one tap.
Activities are tagged by age range (3–5, 6–9, 10–13). The app highlights the ones best suited to your children automatically once your profile is complete.
