Problem

Parents want to teach children healthy money habits through real-world experiences, but existing tools are often too complex, lack proper control, or fail to connect effort with meaningful rewards. Children, on the other hand, need a simple and motivating way to understand tasks, rewards, and spending without feeling overwhelmed.

Goal

Enable parents to assign tasks and manage rewards with full control and transparency
Help children understand the connection between effort, reward, and spending
Design an experience that is simple, safe, and age-appropriate
Integrate digital rewards with real-world spending at registered local businesses

Process

This project focused on creating a child-friendly experience while maintaining parental control, trust, and real-world usability. The process emphasized understanding family dynamics, defining clear task–reward loops, and designing flows that felt simple and motivating for kids while remaining reassuring and transparent for parents.

Research & Planning

Conducted survey-based research with parents to understand family money habits, reward motivation, and trust concerns around digital money. Insights from the research helped identify key behaviors and define two primary user groups—parents and children—along with core use cases for tasks, rewards, and controlled spending within the Cogito ecosystem.

Design & Prototyping

Created low-fidelity flows for task assignment, reward tracking, and coin usage to ensure clarity for both parents and kids. Built interactive prototypes in Figma to validate usability, language clarity, and age-appropriate interactions.

Implementation

Worked closely with developers to align designs with technical constraints and the Cogito digital coin ecosystem. Prioritized core features such as task creation, reward confirmation, and balance visibility to support everyday use.

Testing & Optimization

Tested key flows to identify usability issues, especially around task completion and reward visibility. Refined interactions, copy, and feedback states to make outcomes clear and motivating for children while keeping parents informed and in control. Iterated designs to improve clarity, trust, and overall experience quality.
