# How to choose celebration animations

Open your child, go to the Care & Info tab, tap Celebrations, then check the animations you want to play. Choosing animations other than Fireworks needs Premium.

A celebration is a full-screen animation with a sound that cheers your child on after a success.
**Fireworks** is free; the other animations need Premium.

## When a celebration plays

- After you save a new **Went Potty**.
- After you save a new custom activity that has **Celebrate** checked.

The screen says "Well Done" with your child's name.
Tap **Done** to close it.
Celebrations don't play when you edit an entry.
Other activities play a short sound instead.

## Choose which animations play

1. Open your child and go to the **Care & Info** tab.
2. Tap **Celebrations**.
3. Check the animations you want: **Fireworks**, **Confetti**, **Party Pop**, **Winning**, **Winning 2** and **Stars**.
   Uncheck the ones you don't want.
4. Tap the play button next to an animation to preview it.

Each time, one of the checked animations is picked at random.
If you uncheck them all, any animation can play.
Your choices are for this child and are saved on this phone only.

On the free plan, celebrations always use **Fireworks**.
The other animations show a star; tapping them opens the upgrade screen.

## Celebrate custom activities

To celebrate a custom activity, such as staying dry all night, check **Celebrate** when you create or edit it on the child's **Settings** tab.
See [How to create custom activities](https://www.kidplay.ai/help/create-and-log-custom-activities-8a9cfc79-50ba-4f94-a56e-4cd5479863a1).

## Turn the sound on or off

1. On the dashboard, tap the gear icon at the top right, then tap **Settings**.
2. Switch **Sound Effects** on or off.

This controls both the celebration sound and the short sound after you save an activity.

## Troubleshooting

- **No celebration played**: celebrations only play for a new **Went Potty** or a custom activity with **Celebrate** checked.
- **No sound**: check that **Sound Effects** is on and that your phone isn't muted.
- **I can't check or uncheck an animation**: choosing animations is part of Premium.
