About MindShot by Digital Detox Kids

Our Mission MindShot aims to help parents, carers and kids carve out an attractive, screen-free space in a fast-paced, digitised world. MindShot is a cool, creative alternative to screen-time for kids, at home and on the go – the perfect ‘mental snack’ for kids. Our pocket-sized, themed activity packs offer children 20-minute doses of playful activities that occupy boredom and keep mental energy positively topped up. Our Story As a mum, MindShot Founder Rossana Shokrian knows the temptation of using screen-time as a babysitter, but also that it can be problematic. Kids’ clamouring for the phone is a source of tension in many families. Unable to find an alternative that was at once convenient, absorbing and globally aware, she began developing her own ideas, bringing in the ultimate experts in child engagement, her two young kids. MindShot is the first product we have created under the Digital Detox Kids (DDK) umbrella. Our aim is not to counter technology – it is part of life in many wonderful ways – but to offer healthy breaks from screen-time that inspire, support and expand young minds. MindShot Founder and Producer, Rossana Shokrian has 20 years experience as a creative media professional within print publishing and television, both in the US and UK, including for CNN, New York Times, Vanity Fair and Net-A-Porter.
