Campfire can help family communication feel more visible, but sharing works best when the message and audience are clear.

Quick Start

1. Create the Campfire post.
2. Choose the connected-family or Circle audience.
3. Review the message and any photo.
4. Share and respond to comments as appropriate.

Good Circle posts

• Shared challenge updates.
• Family celebrations.
• Photos or memories both families expect to see.
• Encouragement between connected families.

Use the right audience

• Do not choose the wider community when the post is meant only for connected families.
• Keep private household details inside the family when needed.

Family Example

Two connected families share photos from the same reading challenge and encourage one another.

Good to Know

• Start with the smallest version that solves the problem.
• Change one setting at a time so you can see what helped.
• Missed days are information, not proof that your family failed.
• Open Help in the IAFT app and send a message if something does not work as expected.

Best First Action

Share one low-risk family win with a connected family instead of the wider community.
