I built Play & Seek so parents can have calmer & more connected days with kids

Hi, I’m Krissy - and I’ve just launched Play & Seek here - a web app for finding simple play ideas, without the doom scroll.

Most parents I know are exhausted, stuck in routines, and drowning in screen time (mostly from their own mobile phone!).

But leaning into play (for both my daughter and myself) helped me go from constantly overwhelmed to feeling regulated and present enough to actually being able to enjoy our days together! As a result, we have a beautifully connected, positive and generally calm relationship.

My mission is to help families everywhere discover the power of play and re-embracing their inner child for themselves too.

Inside it you’ll find:

• Quick, low-prep activities for independent play (so you can get a breather and reset throughout the day)

• Playful ways to connect during routines like toothbrushing or leaving the house

• Sensory, literacy & STEM ideas to spark curiosity naturally

• Ways to tap your inner child, step away from screens, and feel more present

It’s like a pocket-sized bestie for play, designed for busy parents who want less stress and more joy in their day!

It’s already been 2 months out in the wild, and the feedback from its early users has been so heartwarming. 💕

I’d love you to try it out and let me know how you find it too! ☺️
