Everything little hands love

Learn
Trace the letters A to Z and the numbers 1 to 10, follow-the-dots pictures, and learn to write their very own name.
Play
16 gentle games that build early skills: puzzles, memory, shadows, sorting, a piano, bedtime, feeding Dino and more.
Draw
A blank page or a scene like the meadow or the beach, with crayons and fun stamps to bring every drawing to life.
Stories
Picture stories to read together, then color: The Little Lost Star, A Cake for Trike and Puddle Day. Plus a little present from Dino every day.
Five languages
English, French, Spanish, Cantonese and Mandarin, with Dino's friendly voice in each, so even pre-readers can play on their own.

Good questions
Questions from grown-ups
What ages is Smudgeful for?
It's made for toddlers and preschoolers, roughly 2 to 6. A friendly voice reads everything out loud, so children who can't read yet can play on their own, and older kids love finger drawing and tracing their name.
Which devices does it work on?
Smudgeful is coming to iPhone and iPad first. A Google Play version for Android is on the way. You can also play in any web browser at play.smudgeful.com.
Is it really free?
The download is free and comes with a taste of everything. One single purchase unlocks the rest for good. There's no subscription and nothing to renew.
Does it need the internet?
No. Everything lives inside the app, so it works anywhere, even in airplane mode.
What languages does it speak?
English, French, Spanish, Cantonese and Mandarin. Each language has its own narrator voice, and in Cantonese and Mandarin children trace Chinese characters.
What data do you collect?
Almost nothing. There are no ads, no analytics and no accounts. If you buy the unlock, a record of the purchase is kept so you can restore it on your other devices. Read the full privacy policy.
