Catching up? Read Part 1: The Story | Read Part 2: How MiNote Works
Welcome to the final post in our MiNote launch series! Over the past two days, I've shared how my hand-drawn lunchbox monsters became a family tradition and how MiNote makes it easy for any parent to send daily notes—no artistic skills required.
Today, let's meet the characters ready to deliver your notes.
Three Characters, Three Personalities
Pip: Your Everyday Helper
Pip is your go-to for everyday moments—a joke, a doodle, a quick "thinking of you." Pip carries your message and helps make the smiles happen.
Perfect for: Daily encouragement, quick jokes, simple reminders
Zip: The Energetic One
Zip brings the energy. Perfect for fun facts, silly surprises, and upbeat moments. If your kid loves a little spark in their day, Zip delivers it with enthusiasm.
Perfect for: Exciting news, playful messages, "you've got this!" vibes
Plum: The Gentle Soul
Plum is all about gentle, comforting notes for kids who need that warm boost. A kind thought, a simple "I'm proud of you," or just a cozy reminder that they're loved.
Perfect for: Tough days, sweet encouragement, comforting messages
Which One Is Right for Your Kid?
Honestly? It depends on the day. Some days call for Zip's energy. Other days need Plum's comfort. And Pip? Pip's there for all the in-between moments.
The beauty of MiNote is that you can match the character to your kid's personality—or to the kind of day they're having.
A Little Note Goes a Long Way
I still remember those early lunchbox notes I drew—the silly monsters, the encouraging words, the ridiculous jokes. I didn't know then that those simple drawings would become such a meaningful part of our family routine.
And I definitely didn't know they'd eventually become MiNote.
When I showed my teens my idea, they had that look... I remember you. And that's how I knew it was perfect and wanted to share it with others.
I'm so excited to share these little helpers with families. Every MiNote is made right here in Ohio with care, because these aren't just products—they're tiny messengers of love heading off to elementary schools everywhere.
Whether you're packing lunches for back to school season or just looking for an easy way to brighten your kid's day, MiNote is here to help.
You bring the words. We'll bring the fun.
