Read Aloud Log

Parents track the books they read aloud to their little ones and celebrate milestones.

Nobody has claimed this yet. Be first.

The idea

Parents of toddlers and preschoolers log each book they read together, with a quick search to fill in title and cover. The app counts toward goals like one thousand books before kindergarten and prints a keepsake list. Only the parent uses the app.

PROMPT 1 OF 3

Build a mobile app called Read Aloud Log. The parent signs up, adds a child by nickname only, and sets a reading goal number. The home screen shows a big counter, progress ring, and a button to log a book.

PROMPT 2 OF 3

The log screen lets the parent search books by title, pick one or type it in, and save with date and an optional one-line note or favorite star. Show a list of recent books, most reread favorites, and a streak of reading days.
