MookmikThe drawing app that sends kids back to paper.
In Mookmik World, every friend starts as a crayon drawing on real paper. Snap a photo and Pip brings it to life in a world your child fills with their own imagination. Want another friend? Back to the drawing table.

Most apps are built to keep kids watching. We built one that keeps them drawing.
Little ones love screens, and screens are very good at holding on to them: autoplay, endless levels, one more video. Mookmik World works the other way round.
The fun part needs a drawing, and drawings happen on paper. So the tablet is only a short stop between one crayon drawing and the next, and there is always a reason to go and draw again.
Paper first. Magic second.
A short, happy loop that always leads back to the drawing table.

Back to the paper
Want a friend for your octopus? There’s only one way to get one: draw it.
Draw, snap, play, and back to the crayons. The screen is the short part.
Their drawing. Their friend.
Pip keeps every wobbly line and every crayon colour. It’s your child’s drawing, just alive.
Take a peek inside
Real screens from Mookmik World, made for preschoolers: big buttons, hardly any words, and Pip there to help.
Big things grow from a small crayon.
Every drawing is practice for things no screen can do for them: imagining, making, slowing down and trying again.
Imagination
A cat with wings. A bus with legs. On paper there are no wrong answers, and whatever they dream up, Pip can bring to life.
A world of their own
Every friend they draw moves into a painted world that they fill, name and give voices to. Not a world made for them: one made by them.
Calm, focused minutes
Drawing is slow, quiet and absorbing, the opposite of a fast, flashing screen. Think of it as mindfulness, preschool style.
Time together
You don’t need to be good at drawing. Ten minutes side by side, taking turns and laughing at the results, is time that stays with them.
Skills for the future
Creative thinking is one of the skills employers expect to matter more and more. It starts small: an idea, a crayon, and trying again.
“I made that!”
Seeing their own wobbly lines walk and talk is a big moment. Pride in their own work is the best reason to keep drawing.
Made for little hands. Built for peace of mind.
Everything a grown-up would want to know, and nothing a child doesn’t need.
A rest reminder that does the hard part
Switch it on in the grown-ups’ area. When time is up, Pip gets sleepy, the music fades and the screen rests. Only a grown-up can add more time.
Private by design
No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Photos and voices stay on your device.
A grown-ups gate
Settings and purchases sit behind a times-table question that little ones can’t answer.
Free to start, pay once
Three worlds are free. Unlock more with one purchase. No subscriptions, no coins.
Made for ages 3–5
No reading needed. Big buttons, picture ideas, and Pip to guide the way.
Six languages
English, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and German. Pip speaks them all.
Fifteen painted worlds to fill with friends.
From the bottom of the sea to outer space. Inside each one, Pip shows picture ideas for what to draw next.

Good questions from grown-ups
Isn’t this just more screen time?
It’s still a screen, but a short one with a job to do. All of the making happens on paper, away from the screen: the app only comes out to snap a photo and play with the new friend for a while. If your child wants another friend, they have to go and draw one. You can also switch on a rest reminder that makes Pip sleepy after 15 or 30 minutes.
What age is it for?
Mookmik World is made for children aged 3 to 5. Nothing needs reading: the buttons are big, the ideas come as pictures, and Pip talks your child through each step.
What do we need?
Paper, crayons or markers, and an iPhone or iPad. Thick, dark lines on white paper work best. Any drawing works, wobbly lines and all.
Will it teach my child to draw?
Mookmik World doesn’t give drawing lessons, and there’s no right or wrong drawing. What it gives is a reason to keep drawing, and picture ideas when they’re stuck. The practice happens on paper, where it counts.
Can we play together?
Yes, and we hope you will. Draw side by side, take the photo together, let your child choose the name and help record the voice. Our blog has a parent’s guide with drawing games for two.
Where do photos and voices go?
Nowhere. Photos of drawings and recorded voices stay on your device. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking. Our server only remembers which worlds you have unlocked and your language.
How much does it cost?
Mookmik World is free to download with three worlds to play in. Grown-ups can unlock more worlds with a one-time purchase, behind a grown-ups-only gate: Explorer ($9.99) or Everything ($19.99). Prices can vary by country. There are no subscriptions.
When can we get it?
Mookmik World is coming soon to iPhone and iPad. Android will follow.
Does it use AI?
No. Pip cuts your drawing out of the photo with classic image processing that runs right on your device. Nothing is generated, and nobody else sees your child’s drawings.
More paper. Less screen. A little magic.
Put out the crayons. Pip will take care of the rest.
