Brief History

Steemkids community was conceived by me when I was carrying out a task in the steemit crypto academy by the then professor @yousafharoonkhan which involved the creation of a community as a practice section and after consultations with some friends, it finally was launched on the 14th of June, 2021 through this introduction post. We admitted as members kids between the ages mentioned above and kids lovers who create kids related contents.

Since then, we have been actively doing our best such that today, we have 4150 subscribers and 109 active posters.

Details Of Our Community Curation Account And Who Holds The Key

Our curation account username is @steemkidss and below is the screenshot of the steemworld page

I started this community by transferring my personal earnings of 1000 steem to the account, I powered up 500 steem and used the rest to run contests. On July ending, I transferred another 1000 steem to be able to take part in spud4steem which the community later won 3rd place and a delegation was given which we used for 3 weeks. That helped us to grow the account.

We also receive upvotes from steemcurator01 on some of our publications that helped us grow the steempower.

Members sent their delegations too to help grow the Cumulative steempower and today, we have grown it to 111,841.33 SP as at the time of this application.

We have been consistently powering up our earnings from time to time and that has helped us build our owned steempower to what it is today which is 31,770.64 owned sp and 80,070.54delegated sp which brings us to our Cummilative steempower of 111,841.18 SP.

We powerup on a regular basis depending on the steem we have available to us and Members voluntarily set beneficiary percentage to our community curation account and this has been helpful in growing our steempower.

So in a nutshell, our account is being grown through regular powerups, delegation and beneficiary percentages by the members including the supports we receive from the curators.

Who Holds The Key?

I @ngienyi, am in custody of the keys. I have also shared the posting key to @madilyn02 as the one who regularly help out in preparing quality posts for the day.

Details Of The Community's Current Policy For Checking And Commenting On Posts

• Steemkids community has 9 active Moderators. The reason for this is to make sure that every post is not left out without being checked and reviewed. And these MODs are actively taking turns to check publications. They are grouped in twos on a daily basis.

• Our MODs exclusive post which is where every mod drop all the post links they have commented on in other for the publication to receive support from our curation account after review has been helpful in ensuring that no publication expires without review. This has really proved to be very efficient in keeping track of all mods activities till date and this is week #25 now.

• To crown it all, at the end of each day, I personally check the community to see which post has or has not been checked and I will make sure I distribute to this responsible for the day or I will do it myself in case they are not online. We have been doing this till date.

How Steemkids Community Is Helping It's Members To Make Quality Posts

Each individual user is different from the others and they all in most cases have unique problems in terms of improving the quality of their publications. It is at this background that steemkids community check the individual publications of every member in order to give advice, corrections and suggestions for improvements. Each mod serves the purpose of advising users if they notice they are not making quality posts.

Our daily picks post published daily by the community contains instructions on how to improve the quality of Publications.

In our chat groups in telegram, we equally advice the users from time to time on the need for improvements in the quality of their publications.

We make sure that only quality publications are submitted for booming support.

Why Steemkids Community Should Be Selected For May Engagement Challenge

• Steemkids community already have the custom of checking all publications made in the community before now and we are not going to stop soon

• Steemkids community is bobbling forth with publications on a daily basis that are of good quality and as such, these ones deserve to be encouraged.

• Steemkids community has numerous engagement projects like the skids-coner, kids diary contest, food challenge, various tutorials and lessons and others that keep the members active.

• We have been actively educating and supporting the kids all around the globe to make steemit a wonderful place for them to blog.

• We only support publications that are steemexclusive and we mute plagiarized contents. We do not even support less quality contents too.

I believe that with these points, we are well suited to to be selected for June engagement challenge.
