When we saw how engaged and motivated Nicholas was by his Focus Poster, we imagined a greater mission: empowering children with one-of-a-kind resources that support and celebrate them. 

We’re crowdfunding through Indiegogo so that, with your help, we can build the infrastructure and digital framework to bring Focus Posters to parents, children, and families everywhere. Plus, by preordering now, you’re promised first dibs at your custom Focus Poster at its lowest price ever. Think of this as a gift card with some sweet perks included.

Building on the known success of task management tools for kids, Focus Posters revitalizes the market by offering the first made-for-your-child solution with characters that look like them, supporting the routines that work for them. 

When you support Focus Posters, we listen to what your child needs, so that we can provide products that seamlessly blend into the most significant parts of their day, like:

These types of visual references are already used in homes, schools, and for health management. Consider it like the picture directions of an instruction manual, or a hand-washing chart in the bathroom. But with Focus Posters, we’re getting personal.

We will enable you with a streamlined, web-based software to create custom resources that connect with your child in the ways that only you know how. 

• You don’t choose a FocusFriend, you create one
• Design and redesign
• Add activities and assemble in routines that make sense
• Pick a template that works for your child and plays to their strengths
• Select from one of our 20+ backgrounds so that it matches their bedroom, or looks great in the bathroom
• Give it a fun title
• Text or no text
• Build in rewards that celebrate their independence and productivity

We’ll give you expert-backed tips and shortcuts when you want them, but we know you’ve got this.

Our products grow with your child to sustain healthy habits for life, with a variety of templates that adapt to their ever-evolving abilities. We offer Focus Posters in CLASSIC, CHECKBOX, and CARDS. 

Some routines don’t change, and that’s why we created the Classic. Whether hanging on a wall or slipping into a backpack, Classic posters provide consistent structure, with no missing pieces ever.

All the features of a Classic poster with an interactive bonus, the Checkbox helps kids stay on track by checking off activities as they go. A Focus Posters’ dry erase marker is included in your purchase, as well as velcro strips to secure the marker and poster so they never drift too far apart.

Not all routines remain the same, which is why we offer Cards. Cards provide structure to a changing routine by easily attaching (and detaching) activities with velcro. Move activities freely across the poster, and mix and match by ordering more activities for this set in the future, with no additional poster purchase required. A transparent pouch is included in your purchase which, when attached to the poster by velcro, is the catch-all for activity cards that aren’t in use. 

By preordering a poster for your child, or a child in your life, today, you help to build the website and software that will dramatically increase our bandwidth, bringing Focus Posters to parents and kids and families everywhere. You’ll also get first dibs on a brand new Focus Posters’ character creator and poster builder, created with input from you, our community. 

Focus Posters are designed with families in mind, guaranteeing that our products are mess-proof, durable, and sensible. That’s why our colorful, fully editable templates are meant for every age and ability, and feature…

• Rounded corners for gentle hands​
• Water-resistant laminate for easy cleaning (and the occasional bathtub dip)
• Attachable pouches for card organization​​
• Two sizes: Portable (8.5″ x 11″) and large sizes (11″ x 14″)

We keep our cost to you as low as possible with our hands-on manufacturing approach. All products are quality controlled by Annie, our in-house perfectionist. As Focus Posters continues to scale and grow, we plan to make manufacturing upgrades, like industrial cutting, corner-rounding, and laminating machines, to keep quality high and the price as low as possible. 

Task management tools help keep folks on track with completing the various to-do’s of daily living. When the concept is applied to help children, it’s a total breakthrough.

Our refreshing take on these resources enhance the essential benefits of these tried and true tools, like:

Executive Functioning: The mental processes that control planning, organization, self-control, and more, Focus Posters support the healthy development of these skills by visually reinforcing tasks, chores, and expectations from start to finish.

Sense of Control: When children understand the flow of their day, they have a greater sense of control, increased feeling of safety and security, and reduced anxiety.

Independence: Skip the routine reminders with peace of mind when your child is using their Focus Poster. Children are able to successfully complete tasks independently because they finally have a custom resource that, thanks to you, makes sense for them and their abilities.

Self-Esteem: Kids feel pride, progress, and the positive representation they need when they can accomplish tasks independently with the help of their look-a-like FocusFriend. “That looks like me!” is pretty much our favorite review ever. 

…and product improved, thanks to feedback from parents in our community! See what they had to say:

“Without being told by an adult, the boys know which tasks come first, next, and last just by a quick reference to their focus poster. Once they’ve completed all tasks, they have free time until it’s time to head out the door. No more frustrated parents (or kids) and no more repeating directions over and over. The boys are totally self directed and, believe it or not, we now have spare time in the morning! 

Moreover, it was so easy for my kids to connect with their posters because the characters ON the poster actually looked like them. My oldest said, “Mom, this is me, right? This is exactly what I would look like if I were in a cartoon!” We all giggled and my child instantly connected to the poster and bought into the idea of this new way of structuring the morning.” ​
