Parent Registration, in depth
Here at Popsicle, our goal is to make it as easy as possible to for parents to register and enroll their children in activities. This article will cover the parent registration process, from start to finish!
School admins will log into their accounts, click on the cog wheel icon to enter their Settings, and then click on Settings, under the Parent Portal subheading. There, they will see a link that they can provide to the parent to register their children.
**Providing parents with your organization's link is essential, as it ties them to your organization in Popsicle.
Please Note: When parents initially sign up for a Popsicle account, they will receive an email asking them to verify the account. They will need to do this before logging into the system.
Once parents have verified their account, they will be redirected to the Popsicle login page:
There, they will enter their login information and click "Login."
After logging in, parents will be directed to their Parent Portal dashboard, where they can create profiles for each of their children and enroll them in activities.
Parents will click on the "Children" tab at the left side of the screen, and then "Add Child" to add the personal details about each of the children they need to enroll.
After adding all of their children to their Parent Portal, parents can register them for activities. If parents click on the "Activities" option at the left side of the Parent Portal, they will see a selection of the available classes and activities for their particular school:

Parents can enroll their children in any open activities by clicking on "Enroll" and adding them to any Waitlisted activities by clicking on activities labeled "Waitlist." A dialog box will open to the right side, and allow parents to fill out the fields regarding their child/children.
These activity charges will be added to the "Cart" in the parent portal, and can be viewed there. This is also where any coupon codes provided to the parent by the school can be added:
