What You'll Find in the App

Each trimester, you’ll have a variety of activities, or “play cards,” to complete that will help you learn about pregnancy, connect with your baby, and prepare for this new chapter in your life! These play cards fall into four “domains,” which you’ll consider seeing in Sparkler once your baby is born: heart, words, mind, and body.

As you try activities, you can press the “We did it!” button to keep track of your  progress in your in-app scrapbook. Here you can see your notes from completed activities and watch your baby bump grow through pictures uploaded in the body play cards. 

You can also discover a library of Parent Tips created just for expecting parents. Find tips on topics like prenatal vitamins, managing morning sickness, preparing older siblings for baby, newborn sleep, and more!
