10 KEY FEATURES
Interactive between nurses and children
By providing prepared scripts and questions, nurses can ask questions that will help to better understand a child’s interest and personality
Partly immersive – partly explaining
Always anchor the child in his immediate environment, avoid isolation from the reality of the hospital. Offers an effective distraction to the child, at the right moment and with the right content
Non-addictive
By using mini-games, a child can be diverted for short periods without moving away too far from his immediate context and without any “addiction”
Entertaining

Appease through explanations
By providing the right explanation to a specific room or medical equipment, the KinderApp allows the child to be quickly accustomed to his/her new hospital environment
Soothing
The effective diversion provided by KinderApp allows a child to have a different focus during critical moments of his hospital stay, especially during the separation from his parents and when entering the OP room
Content edited by experts
KinderApp is offering the latest discoveries within neuroscience and cognitive paediatric psychology to its young patients. This is not a simple game but a deeply reflected and medically tested set of interactions
Support parents too
