CHALLENGE Create a digital solution involving parents/caregivers in early childhood learning

REGION Tanzania

PROTOTYPE Project Limunat: A pocket learning device to inspire, monitor and reform learning. Limunat works much alike the Tamagochi: Each kid gets a “monster” which becomes their learning companion. It grows and thrives when children interact with it (answer quiz questions). When ignored, the monster will complain. The concept is a fun way for kids to learn. Caregivers can also hijack the advice, and send their own questions via sms. They also get feedback on the child’s progress, which helps teachers adjust their teaching methods to meet children’s needs.
