Logging Activities

How to record meals, sleep, bathroom visits, learning achievements, and mood.

Staff can log activities from a child's profile. Each activity type has its own form with relevant fields.

How to Log an Activity

Go to Children → click on a child → select the Activity tab.

Click Create Activity

Click the Create Activity button at the top of the activity feed.

Select the activity type

Choose from 9 activity types: Bathroom Logs, Meal Logs, Sleep Logs, Mood Log, Medication, Notes, Learning Achievement, Rewards, or Photo.

Fill in the details

Complete the form with the relevant information (see activity types below).

Save

Click Save to add the activity to the child's feed and daily report.

Meals

Record what a child ate and drank during mealtimes.

  • Meal Type — Breakfast, Morning Snack, Lunch, Afternoon Snack, Late Snack, or Dinner
  • Time — When the meal occurred
  • Menu Items — If your center has an active menu, the planned food items for the selected meal type appear as selectable chips. Items are pre-selected ("served as planned") — deselect any that weren't served
  • I Ate — Free-text description of food consumed (use alongside or instead of menu items)
  • I Drank — What the child drank
  • Quantity — How much they ate (All, Most, Some, None)
  • Notes — Additional observations (optional)
Allergy alerts: When logging meals for children with allergies, a warning banner appears if any selected food items contain matching allergens. For example, "Emma has a peanut allergy — Peanut butter crackers contains peanut." This is a safety reminder, not a block — staff can still proceed after reviewing.
If no active menu is configured, meal logging works the same as before — free-text entry with no food item chips. See Menu Management to set up your center's menu.

Sleep

Track nap times and sleep quality.

  • Start Time — When the child fell asleep
  • End Time — When the child woke up
  • Sleep Pattern — Quality of sleep (optional)
  • Notes — Additional observations (optional)

Bathroom

Log bathroom visits and diaper changes.

  • Type — Diaper or Potty
  • Description — Details (e.g., wet, soiled)
  • Time — When the visit occurred
  • Notes — Additional observations (optional)

Mood

Record a child's emotional state throughout the day.

  • Mood — Select from options like Happy, Sad, Calm, Curious, Playful, Excited, Tired, Anxious, Angry, Focused, Energetic, Sleepy
  • Time — When the mood was observed
  • Notes — Additional context (optional)

Learning Achievement

Celebrate milestones and learning moments.

  • Skill Area — Category of the achievement (e.g., Math, Language, Motor Skills)
  • Description — What the child accomplished
  • Notes — Additional context (optional)

Medication

Track medication administered during the day.

  • Medication Name — Name of the medication
  • Dosage — Amount given

  • Title — What the reward is for
  • Description — Details about the recognition
  • Notes — Additional context (optional)

Editing an Activity

To edit a logged activity, click the ... menu on the activity card and select Edit.

Logging for Multiple Children

From a classroom's Activity tab, staff can log an activity and apply it to multiple children at once. After selecting the activity type and filling in the details, a child selector appears with checkboxes for each child in the classroom. Select the children to include, then click Post & Close (or Post & Add Another to continue logging).

Each child receives their own individual activity record — this saves time for group activities like meals or bathroom breaks while keeping each child's daily report private.

Activities logged by staff appear in the child's Daily Report and are visible to parents in the Parent Portal.
