Squiggle - Draw, Spell & Write

Squiggle is a warm, hand-drawn app for kids ages 3 to 6. Your child picks a word, draws it, spells it letter by letter, then writes it and turns their drawings into little scenes and stories. Calm, child-led play. No timers, no badges, no scores. Just space to focus, at their own pace.

Every screen answers one question. Pick a colour, draw the dog, find the letter. There's nothing to get lost in.

THE LOOP: DRAW → SPELL → WRITE → PLAY

• Draw — Tap a word like "dog" and Squiggle sketches a friendly version, simpler at 3, more detailed at 6. Trace the ghost lines, colour inside the outline, or peek at a pinned reference. Eight crayon colours, one eraser, no menus.

• Spell — The word comes back as blank slots. Squiggle calls out one letter at a time; your child finds it among the tiles and taps to place it. One letter at a time — never overwhelming. A wrong tile gently wobbles. We never flash red.

• Write — Each letter appears huge in literacy-safe Andika, ready to trace. An "easy" mode adds stroke-order dots; tap it off when they're ready. Encouragement at every letter, not just at the end.

• Play — Every finished drawing becomes a sticker. Drag stickers onto a scene — a park, a kitchen, the moon — and build a tiny world that's theirs.

MADE FOR LITTLE HANDS

• Drawings tuned to your child's age — chunkier lines at 3, finer detail at 6.
• Letters use Andika, a typeface designed for pre-readers.
• Fingers are first-class; Apple Pencil is supported and feels great.
• Every tap target is big and forgiving.
• No reading required — every word is paired with a picture.

CALM, PRIVATE, PARENT-FRIENDLY

• No ads. No third-party trackers. No accounts to start drawing.
• We don't collect personal information about your child.
• Built to the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
• A long-press opens the parent dashboard: see this week's drawings, set the
age, set a gentle daily time limit, and more.
• Drawing, spelling, writing, and scenes work offline.

Squiggle is the early-literacy app we wanted for our own kids: quiet, kind, and made with patience and crayon.
