This app is going to bring out the Picasso in your kid. It lets you sketch and draw on black and white backgrounds. 50 specially selected drawings of interesting subjects; landscapes, animals, professions etc are available for painting. Some of these drawings are incomplete; these are to be completed by voice guided instructions and in addition, portions can be added. One’s own creative drawings or paintings can be shared by email or can be saved in the app or the device’s photo album. A child-lock feature safeguards against unwanted in-app buys. Real finger painting is an added treat in the app.

Kids Learn to Read
