Life Skills

Do you struggle with balancing your kids’ screen time with their education? Say hello to 1Question, the app that solves this problem with a fun twist! Our app lets your child earn screen time minutes in their favourite apps by watching educational videos and correctly answering quiz questions. And the best part? You get to decide which apps to lock behind learning using 1Question.

Learning time

Kids learn by watching short, engaging video lessons.

Do you love to capture the wonderful moments in the world around you through your eyes? How about through your lens? If so, then you could be a photographer. You’ll need to know how to use tools like a camera, light, and sometimes a tripod and props. To be a great photographer, you’ll need to know how to create, capture, and edit images. Some schools have programs where you could earn a degree in Photography, the art of taking and processing pictures. You could search for many wonderful places near you by looking online. Or you could check out books from your local library to find out everything that there is to know on how to be the best photographer you can be. But many successful photographers start earning money without a degree or a high school diploma. Do you have any ideas how you can use your love of photography to make money? Maybe you could offer to take pictures for family members or friend at a party or a fun event that they’re having. But be sure to ask your parents or guardians for permission before getting started. Until then, say cheese!
