Troo Wins Big at the Parents’ Picks Awards 2025!

We are beyond thrilled to share some incredible news — Troo by Yeti, My Friend has been honored once again at the Parents’ Picks Awards 2025, taking home not one, but two prestigious titles:

🏆Best Preschool Products of 2025
🏆Best Products for Elementary Kids of 2025

This marks the second time Troo has been recognized by the Parents’ Picks Awards — a powerful validation of the love and trust parents and educators continue to place in us.

These awards are a true celebration of what matters most to us: creating meaningful, child-centered digital experiences that support children’s growth, learning, and emotional well-being.

Why This Award Matters

The Parents’ Picks Awards are one of the most trusted parent and educator-approved recognitions in the U.S. Each product goes through a thorough evaluation across more than 50 criteria, including cognitive development, engagement, character building, ease of use, innovation, emotional intelligence, and more.

This year, award recipients were evaluated based on how well their products support essential preschool and elementary skills. For Troo, this means being recognized for helping children:

• Build critical thinking and creativity

• Develop empathy, independence, and responsibility

• Cultivate a sense of curiosity and lifelong learning

• Engage meaningfully with real-world topics through AI-led storytelling

What Makes Troo Special- From The Founder

Troo isn’t just another screen-time app. Troo is a playful friend, a fun coach, and a trusted learning partner that mindfully leverages AI for building social-emotional skills in children. Through conversational storytelling and interactive activities, Troo helps children aged 4–10 develop the core competencies they need to thrive in a dynamic world.

From teaching kids how to manage their emotions and think deeply to helping them explore their identity and values, Troo turns every interaction into an opportunity for growth. Our platform combines child development research, social-emotional learning, and the power of AI to meet children where they are.

So far, children have completed over 1k+ mini-adventures, and our Troo is in classrooms and homes, showing increased engagement, joy, and emotional connection. Parents have told us that Troo has become part of their child’s daily routine. A friend who listens, guides, and sparks curiosity.

Let’s reimagine screen time and raise a generation that thinks, feels, and grows with purpose.

Troo is now available on App Store and Google Play Store.
