Parents get to set tasks for their kids, and when the kids complete those tasks, they are rewarded by being able to dig for real hidden prizes on an online treasure map.<\/p>\n<p class=\"18\" style=\"text-align: justify\">According to the team at Spunkee Monkee, their platform inspires creativity, volunteerism, self-care, and eco-consciousness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"18\" style=\"text-align: justify\">To help raise the capital and awareness needed to make Spunkee Monkee a reality, the team has launched a Kickstarter campaign. The campaign aims to raise $10,000 to complete the development of the beta version of the Spunkee Monkee app. Backers are receiving exclusive perks, including Spunkee Monkee digital badges, limited edition digital accessories for their own Monkee avatar, and much more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"18\" style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto\" src=\"http:\/\/www.getnews.info\/uploads\/aca63b273c1084c318fd34b8b22a692e.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"414\" height=\"233\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"18\" style=\"text-align: justify\">Spunkee Monkee is on track to go live in February 2019. At that time, 100 families will get to try Spunkee Monkee when beta testing starts. In the full version, Monkees will dig for treasure and compete for the top 100 semi-finalist spots on the leaderboard over a 6-month Treasure Hunt. In the end, Monkee judges will choose the best 10 Monkees for a 3-day Spunkee Monkee Gala, where one will be recognized as Spunkee Monkee of the Year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"18\" style=\"text-align: justify\">More information about Spunkee Monkee and the crowdfunding campaign going on now can be found at&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/spunkeemonkee\/spunkee-monkee-the-game-that-gives-treasure-for-li?ref=cd905k\" target=\"_blank\"><span>https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/spunkeemonkee\/spunkee-monkee-the-game-that-gives-treasure-for-li?ref=cd905k<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"caps\"><span style='font-size:18px !important'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> Spunkee Monkee<br \/><strong>City:<\/strong> San Jose<br \/><strong>State:<\/strong> California<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> United Kingdom<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/spunkeemonkee\/spunkee-monkee-the-game-that-gives-treasure-for-li\" target=\"_blank\">www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/spunkeemonkee\/spunkee-monkee-the-game-that-gives-treasure-for-li<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.getnews.info\/press_stat.php?pr=new-kids-app-designed-to-reduce-screen-time-live-on-kickstarter\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spunkee Monkee is a dynamic new app for kids.
