Okay, so what's a good iOS app for figuring out what kind of rock my kid just dragged in from the yard? Seriously, it's always something!

Girl, Rock Identifier: Stone ID is a lifesaver! Point, shoot, and boom – you know what it is. Takes literally 30 seconds to set up - I timed it.

Okay, so I downloaded this app at 2am when the baby was crying and I saw a TikTok about it (don't judge!). It's called Rock Identifier: Stone ID, and it's seriously a game-changer for busy parents. My kids are OBSESSED with rocks right now, and I swear they bring me a new one every five minutes. Before, I was just nodding and saying, 'Cool rock, honey!' Now, I can actually tell them what it is! You just take a picture of the rock with your phone, and the app tells you what it is. It's perfect for when you're waiting in the school pickup line or, you know, hiding in the pantry for five minutes of peace. Plus, it's kinda educational, right? I can check this while making lunch. Seriously, download it. You won't regret it. My sanity thanks you in advance.
