How it works
Two big choices. That’s the whole menu.
No tabs, no menus, no reading. A toddler taps Trace or Colour, picks a picture and starts.
Colour
Animals, cars and trucks, dinosaurs, sea life and princesses — 100 pages drawn with big shapes for little fingers.
EasyHard
Easy mode
Colour stays inside the lines
Every colouring page is split into sections. In Easy mode a stroke stays inside the section it started in, so a wobbly scribble across the dinosaur’s belly stays on the belly.
- Nothing fills itself in — your child still does the colouring.
- Thick, sealed outlines on every page, so there are no gaps for colour to leak through.
- Hard mode turns it off for older kids who want to colour freely.
Tracing
Letters, numbers and shapes, the right way round
A soft lane and a dotted line show the path. Green dots mark where each stroke starts, and a little dot runs ahead to show the way until your child’s finger takes over.
Trace it neatly and three gold stars pop up with the picture they just made.
Designed with a two-year-old
Made for fingers that are still learning
Tested by a real two-year-old. Here’s what made the cut.
Buttons that never move
Purple takes the last line away, red sweeps it all clean, green says finished. Same colour, same place, every screen.
One crayon, always the right size
No brush sizes to fiddle with. A single crayon that looks the same against the picture on a phone or an iPad.
Pip says what to draw
A friendly voice names every picture — “Let’s colour an elephant” — so a child who can’t read yet never gets stuck.
A cheer for every picture
Tap the green tick and their own picture pops up in a frame with confetti, gold stars and a buddy cheering.
Every masterpiece kept
Finished pictures land in My pictures, ready to show off or carry on colouring later.
Ready when the wifi isn’t
All 100 pictures and Pip’s voice live inside the app, so it keeps working in the car once it’s been opened once.
100 pictures to colour
Each one redrawn for toddlers: a big friendly subject, thick lines and only a handful of large parts.

Real app, real taps, Pip’s real voice.
For parents
A safe place to scribble
SketchSkool Kids is a calm drawing app, not a feed. Here’s exactly what it does and doesn’t do.
Read the privacy policy →No ads
Nothing flashing for attention and nothing to tap by accident.
No chat, no links out
There’s nothing social and no way to wander off to a website.
No email or sign-up
Open it and draw. The app never asks your child for a name, email or photo.
Grown-ups only gate
Settings sit behind a maths question a toddler can’t answer.
Questions parents ask
What age is SketchSkool Kids for?
It’s built for two-year-olds and up — big buttons, no reading needed — and older kids enjoy tracing every letter and switching colouring to Hard mode.
What’s the difference between Easy and Hard?
In Easy mode each stroke stays inside the part of the picture it started in, so colour can’t cross the lines. Nothing fills itself in — your child still does the colouring. Hard mode is free colouring for older kids. Switch it on the Colour screen or in the Parents area.
Does it work on iPad?
Yes. iPad is the main device it’s designed for, and it works on Android and iPhone phones too.
Does it need the internet?
The pictures and Pip’s voice are built in. It needs a connection the first time it opens, and finished pictures are saved to My pictures when you’re online.
Does my child need an account?
No. There’s no sign-up, no email and no password. The app sets itself up anonymously on your device.
