Special** price of $9.99 for a one-year subscription, PPOD is the first interactive parenting App to help parents track and nurture their children’s development across key Milestones from ages birth to 3 years, with fun activities for each milestone. "PPOD" is the exact same App as "PPODs" for the iPhone.

PPOD helps parents take a proactive role in their child’s development. Parents can personalize and track development on up to five children.

PPOD is much more than a reference tool. It helps parents foster and learn about development, prepare for well-child visits with the pediatrician, articulate progress and concerns, and anticipate upcoming developmental Milestones—all with the goal of enhancing their child’s development.

Milestones are arrayed in 11 developmental areas: Cognitive • Dressing • Eating/Drinking • Expressive Language • Fine Motor • Gross Motor • Receptive Language • Sleeping • Social-Emotional • Toileting • Growth.

PPOD provides:
★ An interactive chart displaying 108 Milestones as an overview of a childs development.
★ Warm, everyday Activities, Hints, and Safety Tips for each Milestone.
★ Milestone progress is color-coded by the parent making it easy to visualize progress.

PPOD helps parents to partner with pediatricians:
★ Milestones are organized by the 12 well-child visits recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
★ Parents record child progress and add comments to create an individualized profile of development.
★ Parents print “Talking Points” and reports to guide their conversations with their pediatrician.

What parents are saying:
★ "Finally, a tool to help parents that is clear, concise and so easy-to-use."
★ "Not only educates, but also empowers parents! A must have parenting tool!"
★ "PPOD is an amazing way to monitor my childs development and share that with my childs pediatrician."
★ "Great suggestions. I like the way the Ideas and Activities are broken down by developmental domain."

What pediatricians are saying:
★ "Empowers parents and makes our job as pediatricians easier!"
★ "Fascinating! Its a high tech baby book."
★ "PPOD makes developmental surveillance easy while offering benefits to both families and pediatricians."
★ "Fantastic tool! Best thing Ive seen... Ingenious!"
