Comments from the Corporate Planning Department, Users Like Us, Inc.
Through our storefront on the "Maneboo" money learning app, we will offer the experience of growing and decorating flowers. We hope that in addition to learning about the structure of money, it will provide an opportunity for people to become familiar with flowers and for parents and children to communicate with each other through flowers.
As a service that creates opportunities for children to learn about money and society in a fun way and serves as a catalyst for communication between parents and children, "Maneboo" will continue to make further updates and expand the number of companies opening stores.
About "Manebu
Maneboo" is a completely free money learning application that parents and children can enjoy together.
This service allows children to learn about money, work, and products through "oshigoto" (work that can be enjoyed like a game) and "okaimono" (shopping) using "manebu," the in-app currency earned from oshigoto. We hope that parents and children will enjoy playing the games while conversing with each other.
