Resized for new 4" iPhone/iPod screen.

App Description

Your kids are the most prim and proper princes and princesses in the world. Perfectly disciplined - the kind that behave well and don't ever misstep or need a time-out. If you do, congratulations and count yourself lucky!

However, if your kids sometimes (or all the time) act wildly, make you pull out your hair, or cause you to give them the all time staredown, then you're like most of us. Because let's face it; kids will be
kids. It doesn't mean they are awful terrors (even if some are) or that they are intentionally driving you crazy (even if some are). It just means they need a little guidance, understanding, patience and
maybe.....a.....TYMOOT!

What's Tymoot? It's an app, designed by a PARENT FOR A PARENT. A parent of THREE kids specifically. You know what that's like? Yeah, well we do! YIKES! In simple terms, Tymoot (pronounced "Time-Out") is an app that helps you, as a parent, create timeouts for your kids.

But it's more than just a timer. We know you want more than that. Here's what Tymoot has that a timer doesn't. Tymoot has a WHEEL OF DISCIPLINE! Sounds horrific and scary right? It is. And it's kind of fun. Feel the power as you spin the wheel and it takes you to an appropriate but random discipline action. You can even let your kids spin it so they can have some fun and engage in the process. NO SOUP FOR YOU!

But what if your kids' behavior improves? Well, we've taken care of that. There's also a "Star Chart Tracking" section where you can chart your kids' progress. See if the terrors get worse or better! And if you have kids of different ages, we've thought about that too. A ten year old obviously needs a different timeout than a 5 year old.

Because it was designed for parents, by parents. Help change your kids' behavior and download Tymoot already!
