PropBox

PropBox is a mobile app (with optional web dashboard) that helps parents, teachers, and caregivers spark creative make-believe using whatever objects are already nearby. Users quickly scan or type a few items (e.g., “blanket, spoon, cardboard box”), pick an age range, and get a short set of play setups: roles, a simple story hook, rules, and 3 escalating “plot twists” to keep kids engaged. It also includes a timer-free “flow mode” that nudges adults with minimal interventions (“ask this question,” “add this constraint”) instead of over-directing play. Sessions can be saved as reusable “play cards,” shared with a classroom, and adapted for small spaces or low-noise environments. This is a combination traditional + AI app: AI generates prompts, while curated templates and safety filters keep it practical and age-appropriate.
