Smiley Man Check-In
Kids feelings check-ins
Free · In‑App Purchases
New in 3.6: switch Feelings Book check-ins between List and Calendar, browse big song libraries, and keep jars and songs safer through backup and restore.
A little space for big feelings. Smiley Man Check-In helps children name how they feel and choose a small next step, with a grown-up nearby.
INCLUDED FREE
- One child profile and eight core feelings for check-ins.
- Small, Medium and Big feeling-size choices, with an optional afterward question.
- Optional writing, child-recorded voice notes and drawing.
- Core calming activities, starter stories and the Feelings Book.
- Messages for Stormy Me: save a voice note, drawing, written note, helpful idea or a song you made for another day, then open a note from happy you when things feel hard. Watch notes settle into your jar, keep full jars on your shelf and remove an individual note whenever you choose.
- Your first Smiley Hamster and a gentle six-day local Hatch Cycle. The first rewardable check-in on a local day advances growth once; extra check-ins cannot speed up hatching.
- A refreshed Smiley Pet Park with local Sparkles, Buddy Bond progress, learned moves, a Pet Book and a Sparkle Shop.
- The Music Room: play keys, guitar, drums, your own voice, a loop band and Follow lights, spin sounds at the DJ booth and keep your song on this device. Recording your voice needs a grown-up's Voice Notes setting.
- A faster Music Room for large libraries: smaller song files, paging, search, sorting and Private iCloud Backup support.
- A Pet Park dance party where your pet dances to the beat of your songs.
- Hide & seek and Bedtime in Smiley Pet Park: find your hiding buddies with a flashlight, or tuck them into bed in the evening.
- The Worry Jar: drop worries in, watch them settle, then let them go. Worries are cleared when you leave.
- The Feelings Book: switch Recent check-ins between a familiar list and a Calendar view, then browse a month or the whole year.

Parent patterns are conversation starters, not clinical conclusions. Smiley Man read-aloud uses audio bundled with the app; child content is not sent to an AI narration service. There are no third-party ads, third-party analytics SDK or cross-app tracking. Smiley Man Check-In is not a diagnosis, screening, treatment, therapy, medical, or crisis-service app.
