Welcome to Kidz Fun Art


Kidz Fun Art lets little artists create their own stickers, and use them in their drawings.
It's a great way to quickly draw patterns like leaves, flowers and grass, but
also to create fun characters and objects that can be used in their drawings over and over again.

## See how it's done

To create a sticker, select the area you want to turn into a sticker, and then tap the
sticker button in the popup menu. This will open the sticker library, where you can choose to either

- **Paste** the sticker into your drawing. This works just like duplicating the selection, but you can keep it forever and use between different drawings.
- **Paint with the sticker** using the sticker brush. This allows you to paint with the sticker, just like you would with a regular brush, but it will use the sticker instead of a solid colour. There are a number of options for the sticker brush. The can change the **size**, **rotation**, **brightness** and **horizontal flip** of the sticker.

## Deleting stickers

If the sticker library gets too full, or you created a sticker by mistake, you can delete stickers from the library. To do this, tap the edit button. This will show a red delete icon on each sticker. Tap each sticker you want to delete, then tap the edit button again to stop deleting stickers. If you deleted a sticker by mistake, not to worry, there's a big trash can icon at the bottom of the sticker library that, when tapped, will restore all recently deleted stickers.


Sticker Brush and Library


Kidz Fun Art makes it easy for kids to modify their drawings with a range of simple and fun selection tools. Some of these work on all drawing types, others are specialised for things like animations.

## Duplicate

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/selection-tools/copy.gif" alt="Duplicate" align="right">
The simplest tool is the Duplicate tool. This allows your child to select any part of their drawing and duplicate it, creating a copy that they can move around or modify. To use it, select the **Selection** tool on the right, then drag a box around the area you want to duplicate. Once selected, tap the **Duplicate** button that appears next to your selected box.
</ResponsiveLayout>

## Rotate

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/selection-tools/rotate.gif" alt="Rotate" align="right">
To rotate a selection, first select the area you want to rotate using the **Selection** tool. Once selected, tap the **Rotate** button that appears next to your selected box. You can then drag your finger or pen on the circle that appears in front of the selection.
</ResponsiveLayout>

## Swirl

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/selection-tools/swirl.gif" alt="Swirl" align="right">
The **Swirl** tool was a great idea by the Kidz Fun Art product designer, my 8 year old daughter. To use it, select the area you want to swirl using the **Selection** tool. Once selected, tap the **Swirl** button that appears next to your selected box. You can then drag your finger or pen on the circle that appears in front of the selection to swirl it around.  Isn't it cool?
</ResponsiveLayout>

## Blur

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/selection-tools/blur.gif" alt="Blur" align="right">
Blurring an image is a common effect used in art and photography. Our initial reason for including it was to add a sense of depth to background layers, but your child can use it creatively in many ways. To blur a selection, first select the area you want to blur using the **Selection** tool. Once selected, tap the **Blur** button that appears next to your selected box. This pops up a dialog with a slider that allows you to adjust the amount of blur applied to the selection. Move the slider left or right to increase or decrease the blur effect, then tap the **Thumbs Up** button to confirm.
</ResponsiveLayout>

## Animation: Copy between Frames

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/selection-tools/animcopy.gif" alt="Copy between Frames" align="right">
When working with animations, you can copy parts of your drawing from one frame to another. This is useful for creating consistent elements across frames or reusing parts of your drawings. To use it, select the **Selection** tool and drag a box around the area you want to copy. Then, tap the **Copy Between Frames** button that appears next to your selected box - it looks like two blue pages with an arrow between them. This is place a copy of the selected area above the list of frames.  Switch to any number of other frames, and just tap that copied area to paste it into that frame. You can then move it around or modify it as needed.
</ResponsiveLayout>

## Animation: Move Along a Path

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/selection-tools/animpath.gif" alt="Move Along a Path" align="right">
A really cool feature for animations is the ability to move a selected area along a path. This is another feature inspired by our 8 year old product designer, watching her laboriously move a ball frame by frame to make it bounce across the screen. We thought there must be a better way, and this is it!

Your child to create dynamic animations where elements follow a specific route. To use it, select the area you want to move using the **Selection** tool. Once selected, tap the **Move Along Path** button that appears next to your selected box - it looks like a dotted line with an placemarker at one end and a flag at the other. You can then drag the selection to draw a path on the canvas, and the selected area will follow that path when you play the animation. You can choose how many frames to use for the animation, and it will create new frames if needed.
</ResponsiveLayout>


Simple & Fun Selection Tools


Kidz Fun Art is not just about colouring, it also has a range of powerful drawing tools that make creating art fun for kids. While it is simple enough for a 3 year old to use, it also has features that will keep a 12 year old entertained and creating for hours and hours. Most art apps these days, like ProCreate, Photoshop etc, assume that the user has a certain level of skill and experience, but Kidz Fun Art is designed to be accessible to all kids, regardless of their age or skill level. It grows with your child, providing them with the tools they need to create amazing art as they develop their skills.

## Layers

Layers are a powerful feature that allows your child to create complex images by stacking different elements on top of each other. This is similar to how professional artists work, and it gives kids the freedom to experiment with their art without worrying about making mistakes. If you've ever used Photoshop, you will be familiar with the concept of layers. Kidz Fun Art makes it easy for kids to use layers, providing a simple interface that allows them to add, remove, and rearrange layers as they create their art.

<YouTube id="ivnn0sVn3Vs" />

## Custom Gradients

A favourite feature for most kids is drawing with the rainbow brush. Kidz Fun Art comes with a default, beautiful rainbow gradient, but it also allows your child to create their own custom gradients. This means they can choose their own colours and create unique gradients that reflect their personal style. The app provides a simple interface for creating gradients, making it easy for kids to experiment with different colour combinations.

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/powertools-for-kids/custom-gradient-button.png" alt="Gradients" align="right">
To use it, double tap the Rainbow Brush button to expand the menu, and tap the Custon Gradient button. This will open the gradient editor, where you can choose your colours and create your own custom gradient.  See the quick video below for a demonstration.
</ResponsiveLayout>

<YouTube id="1c8ISnL2VP8" />

## Millions of Colours

Kidz Fun Art has a powerful colour picker that allows your child to choose from millions of colours. This means they can create art that is truly unique and reflects their personal style. The app provides a simple interface for selecting colours, making it easy for kids to experiment with different colour combinations.

<ResponsiveLayout image="/images/blog/powertools-for-kids/custom-colour-picker.jpg" alt="Colour Picker" align="right">
To use it, tap the Colour Picker button on the top left, and then tap the colour you want to use. You can move the sun slider to darken or lighten the colour. When you're happy with your colour, tap the Thumbs Up icon to use it. 
</ResponsiveLayout>

## Mirrored Drawing

Mirrored drawing is a fun feature that allows your child to create symmetrical art by drawing on one side of the screen and having it mirrored on the other side. This is a great way for kids to experiment with patterns and shapes, and it can lead to some really interesting and unique art.

The mirror can be placed both horizontally and vertically, and you can move it around easily by dragging it with your finger. See the video below for a demonstration.

Powerful Drawing Tools for Kids


Kidz Fun Art has an infinite number of colouring pages, all safe for the youngest artists. With our AI tools, you can create your own coloring pages or choose from a wide variety of pre-made ones.

## How do even young kids use the AI Colouring Page creator?

To make the AI generator fun and easy for kids of all ages, we have designed it to be simple and intuitive. Kids can choose from a range of themes, such as animals, nature, or fantasy, and the AI will then generate a unique colouring page based on their choices.

For older kids and adults, the AI generator allows you to directly specify
precisely what you want to see. Simply tap the pencil icon and type
in your prompt. Don't worry though, we make sure that, no matter what is
written, the AI will only generate safe and fun images for kids.

Making Infinite Colouring Pages with AI


Kidz Fun Art is not just about colouring, it also has a range of educational features that make learning fun for kids. With our app, children can learn to write letters and improve their maths skills while having a great time.

## How does the handwriting feature work?

Here is the Product Manager of Kidz Fun Art, my then 5 year old daughter, demonstrating how to use the hand writing feature.

<YouTube id="fiXpWnDeGJk" />

Your child can practice writing all the letters of the alphabet, both uppercase and lowercase, on one screen, or you can choose to focus on just one letter at a time. The app provides a dotted line for your child to trace over, and then they can practice writing the letter on their own.

## How does the maths feature work?

The maths feature allows your child to practice basic addition and subtraction, multiplication and division.

Here is the Product Manager of Kidz Fun Art, my then 7 year old daughter, demonstrating how to use the maths feature.

<YouTube id="JOLbJ3XdVcU" />

The simplest maths feature is the set of tables, e.g. 2 times tables. It also offers an automatically generated set of maths problems, of varying difficulty, that your child can solve. This means that they will never run out of maths problems to solve, when they finish the page, just hit the refresh button and bam! A whole new set of problems are ready to go. The app provides a fun and interactive way for your child to learn and practice their maths skills.
