A home phone, reimagined
Parents everywhere are wrestling with the “first phone” decision. But what if there was a middle path—one that allowed your child to connect without opening the door to smartphones, social media, and screen time spirals? Enter Tin Can: the shared, stationary family phone that gives kids safe, screen-free communication.
Tin Can lives in your kitchen, hallway, or family room. It invites connection and makes conversations visible—literally. No hidden messages. No secret DMs. Just clear, healthy boundaries around how kids talk to the people they love.
Why it works:
Empowers kids to call loved ones without giving them a smartphone
Lets parents monitor conversations passively—without invading privacy
Supports developmental stages with age-appropriate tech
Creates a culture of openness and accountability
If your child wants to talk, let them—just not with a screen in hand.
