Happy New Year! As we wrap up the holiday season, we’re finishing a lot of projects here at Ketshop. December was a big month for us: we added the ability for kids to “heart” their favorite items in their shop, so both parents and kids could track which products they like best. Hearting items has become a favorite pastime in our household, with our older kids essentially window shopping through the catalogue.
Hearting enabled another much-requested feature: wishlists! A child’s wishlist contains items that parents have approved and kids have hearted, so everyone likes that product. This list can be shared with friends and family, who can contribute to their savings and see their favorite items!
