Teen Dashboards Coming to Hopscotch Play!

Teens deserve a space that feels like them. The Teen Dashboard gives your clients a dedicated home in Hopscotch Play that matches their maturity, invites personalization and self-expression, and makes check-ins feel natural. Alongside the dashboard, we are steadily expanding our library with more teen-focused games, activities, videos, and tools.

Why it matters

  • Builds buy-in with a space designed for teens
  • Captures meaningful pre-session signals
  • Encourages healthy self-expression and personalization in treatment

Let's explore the features that will be available in the new Teen Dashboard!

All About Me

Themes and backgrounds
Switch between light or dark mode, then pick from curated color themes designed with teen aesthetics in mind. Teens can also upload a favorite photo to use as a custom background. The choices apply across their dashboard so the space feels personal without extra setup each session.

Avatar or profile photo
Upload a profile image or choose from our growing set of older-looking Hopscotch avatars created for teens. Teens can also upload a photo that reflects them.

Status update
A simple text box encourages a quick pulse check. Teens can share how they are feeling or what has changed since last time in one or two sentences.

My Playlist
Teens paste a YouTube link to a song they are into and play it directly on the dashboard. This can be used to explore mood, memories, and meaning through music. They can update the playlist over time, giving you an easy conversation starter and a window into identity and coping.

Today’s Check-In

A structured pre-session snapshot that is low lift for teens and high value for providers.

Feelings, their way
Teens select a feeling and choose how to express it using a GIF, a color swatch, or an emoji. A short text field lets them add context in their own words. This honors different communication styles while still capturing a clear emotional signal.

What’s on your mind
A simple tap list covering school stress, friendships, family, body image, identity, and other concerns. Providers can use the choices to steer discussion during session.

Weekly reflections
Two brief prompts invite balance. “What went well” helps notice wins and protective factors. “What do you wish had gone differently” surfaces friction points without turning the check-in into homework.

Life ratings
Five sliders track sleep, stress, focus, exercise, and appetite, and providers can add a few custom items they want the teen to measure. Ratings are captured per session so you can look for patterns over time and notice early shifts that may need attention.

My Circle

Teens add up to five people who matter right now, including family, friends, mentors, coaches, or others. Each person can be represented by an avatar or an uploaded photo with a short label. The list can be updated anytime, offering an ongoing view of supports and stressors that you can reference in session.

Goals

Create simple goals for short or long term aims and use a slider to mark progress during check-ins. Teens can upload an image or choose an icon to represent the goal, which makes progress feel concrete. Providers can celebrate small moves and revisit stalled goals with clear visual cues.

Session Shortcuts

Save time with pinned resources: the items you selected from the library are right up front and ready to start. “Recently Played” shows the last used stories, games, and tools for this client. You can jump back in and pick up where you left off in seconds.

Teen Newsfeed

A dedicated feed with teen-friendly clips, posts, affirmations, and timely topics. Content is curated for relevance and refreshed regularly so there is always something new to explore. Teens can like items they enjoy and save the ones they want to revisit during a future session.

Fun Stuff

A light engagement zone that brings fun and levity to sessions, with a weekly positive mini-challenge, a one-tap poll, and quick trivia with instant results.
