PicsArt for Kids 1.4.0

Cute app for kids to color, draw and learn simple techniques
Children have a vivid imagination and the best way for them to showcase it is through drawing. But instead of using messy crayons or water colors, why not get the PicsArt drawing app for children, filled with everything you need to help your child learn how to draw and have fun at the same time.

Lovely GUI with all tools arranged on both sides of the screen

As expected, the user-interface is neatly designed with many vivid colors and cute pictures, suitable for toddlers. All tools are arranged on both sides of the screen, making it easy to access them. Colors are featured on the left side, but only six common shades are available and there's no option of adding more. In addition, the app is intuitive, but considering that it's designed for children, some instructions of use would have been nice to have.

Draw, color and learn new things

The app aims at delivering a simple and comprehensive way of learning how to draw by changing the color of the canvas, using brushes of different sizes and shapes, all while listening to relaxing music. The app also comes with an eraser and a dice icon that randomly changes the style and color of the brush. However, there's no option of erasing the last change made to a drawing.

The coloring mode is filled with different styles of cartoon characters, animals and planes that kids must color. The same tools as for drawing are available in this section and there's also music playing in the background. Pictures can be enlarged to make it easier to reach smaller areas and all drawings are saved into a distinct section within the app.

Help your kid learn elementary techniques on drawing shapes

Aside from drawing and coloring, your kids can also learn simple ways of drawing shapes in the next section of the app. The lessons are on solving several labyrinths by drawing the path towards the exit. Another set of lessons focuses on shapes that can be used to draw several things, using people and objects, while the third section provides kids with models on drawing various animals.
