Register for free with Kidobi and help us raise money for the Island Public School!
Help us raise money for our school by signing up for a free 2 month trial of the new children's video platform, Kidobi!
Kidobi was created by a parent of an IPS student as a better alternative to television and video games. Designed specifically for children ages 3-6, Kidobi gives each child age-appropriate, educational programming uniquely tailored to their needs. With each registration, Kidobi will be donating $1 to the Island Public School’s Lighthouse Foundation. This is a great way to help and everyone benefits!
Kidobi features:
No commercials or advertising High quality content by well known international and local children’s media producers Parental controls and an easy to use site Safe, entertaining, and educational content, personalized to your child
To register or visit, go to www.kidobi.com to create your free account.
Enter the Promo Code: IPS1
Register before May 31, and for each registration (one registration per family), $1 will be donated to our school’s Lighthouse Foundation. Please remember to tell all your friends, family and co-workers about this. Our goal is to raise $1000, so please ask at least 10 other parents you know outside of this school to check out the site and register. They can help, their children will benefit, and we can raise some money for our school. It's a win-win!
