| What is the Problem Worth Solving? | Hiking can get boring for kids since they just see it as a long, difficult walk. |
| Your Solution | Give them a scavenger hunt for things to look for along the way based on the park they are hiking in/near. They can search for native plants and animals, or even help pick up litter, and they are rewarded with different point values with each item they find. |
| Target Market | Outdoorsy parents who are trying to engage their kids in nature activities. |
| What is the Competition Like? | There are plenty scavenger hunt apps and there are worksheets for hiking scavenger hunts in general but I could not find much that combines the two and creates a game out of it. |
| How are you solving the problem better then competitors? | I'm creating an app that could potentially have a leaderboard system and that is location and user specific. |
