HOW IT WORKS
From imagination to animation
Imagine
Describe a character in their own words and make it three times, changing one thing each time, until it is theirs. Lessons 1–2.
Build
Make the places, cast a voice by describing it, write the three-sentence story on paper, and plan eight panels. Lessons 3–6.
Animate
Choose one camera move per picture, then watch the premiere with their name at the end. Lessons 7–8.
SMALL STEPS. USEFUL DISCOVERIES.
What your child will explore
Tell a story
Give the character a voice, write what happens, and plan the scenes.
Bring it together
Choose camera movements and finish a cartoon to watch and share with family.
START WITH SOMETHING SMALL — $1
Their first lesson
Your Character Exists Now
They describe a character from their imagination, explore variations, give it a name, and save it. Their story starts with someone they created themselves.
They finish with
One named character, 3 variations, saved to portfolio
That is the first step — not yet a finished animated cartoon, starring a character they invented. The whole course is 8 lessons for $9.99, and your $1 counts toward it.

WHAT THEY WORK TOWARD
A cartoon with their name at the end.
Their own character, story, pictures, and camera choices, brought together as a finished film. There is a clear next step in each lesson, from the first idea to the premiere.

One clear step at a time.
8 lessons. Open any lesson below to see what they will do.
01Your Character Exists NowInvent, name, and save a character from your own imagination.
Two dogs, and you already know which one is a character. Today you find out why - and make one of your own, three times, and give it a name.
They finish with: One named character, 3 variations, saved to portfolio
02Same Character, Different MoodsTry new poses and expressions while keeping the same character.
Make your character look like itself from every angle. This one is hard on purpose.
They finish with: A four-pose character sheet: happy, scared, angry, and from behind
03Where Does This Happen?Create the setting and explore how changing the light changes its mood.
Build the world your story lives in. Then change only the light, and watch an ordinary place turn magical.
They finish with: Two or three places, and one of them made twice - once ordinary, once magical
04Give Them a VoiceDescribe a voice and choose how your character should sound.
Describe a voice in words and hear your character speak. Say who is talking before you say how they sound.
They finish with: A voice cast for their character, named and kept
05What Goes Wrong?Write a three-sentence story with a character, a problem, and a next step.
No computer. A pen, a piece of paper, and three sentences — and the discovery that a story with nothing going wrong is not a story.
They finish with: A three-sentence story, written on paper and saved
06Your StoryboardTurn the story into panels and choose the camera’s view of each scene.
Split your three sentences into eight pictures — and decide, for each one, how close the camera stands.
They finish with: A 6-8 panel storyboard with a deliberate mix of shots
07Make It MoveChoose a camera movement—or a still moment—for each picture.
One camera move per picture — and the discovery that holding still is the move almost nobody picks.
They finish with: A camera move chosen for every panel, including at least two hold-stills
08PremiereBring the scenes together, watch the finished cartoon, and show someone.
Your pictures, in order, with your words on them and your name at the end. Watch it here, then we build the real one.
They finish with: A finished film, and somebody who has watched it
It plays in the browser the moment they press go. We then render the full 1080p film with the voice they cast in Lesson 4 and email you a link to watch and download — the same cartoon, in a file you can keep.

Start together, follow their curiosity, and give them time to try things out.
TOOLS, SAFETY & PRIVACY
Designed for kids. Clear information for parents.
- One family account, set up by you.
You pay, then choose a password. Your child signs in with a first name and, if you want, an age range you pick from a short list. Never a surname, date of birth, school, address or photograph.
- You can see everything they make.
Their pictures, notes and projects are in their portfolio, open to you whenever you are signed in. Ask us and we will show you everything we hold, delete all of it, or stop collecting more.
- Every description is checked, twice.
What your child types is run through a safety filter before it reaches the image tool, and the picture is checked again when it comes back. Pictures are only ever shown to a signed-in member of your family — a link on its own is not enough.
- No account with any AI company.
The tools run on our server, on our account. Your child never signs up with an AI provider, never agrees to anyone else’s terms, and nothing they type is attached to an identity outside CreatorKids.
- Nothing is used to train anything.
What they type and make is kept so a person can review it for safety. It is not used for advertising, profiling, or training any model. No advertising cookies and no third-party trackers run anywhere your child goes.
- Kept while you are with us, then gone.
Creations and portfolio stay while your account is open and for 30 days after you close it. Safety logs are kept for 12 months. If we ever change what we collect, we email you first.
The full detail, in plain words: our privacy policy.
A FEW THINGS PARENTS ASK
Good questions. Clear answers.
Does the AI do all the creative work?
Your child chooses the character, describes the scenes, writes the story, and decides what to change. The tools help create the pictures and voice; the creative decisions stay with them.
Does my child need any experience with AI?
No. Each lesson shows what to do before asking them to try it, and they type descriptions in their own words. The tools are inside the lesson, with nothing to set up.
Will my child finish the whole project in Lesson 1?
No. Lesson 1 is the first building block: they finish it with one named character, 3 variations, saved to portfolio. A finished animated cartoon, starring a character they invented is what the whole 8-lesson course works toward, and it comes together in the final lesson.
Is the $1 lesson a subscription?
No. It is one payment of $1 for Lesson 1, yours to keep and replay. Nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel. Only the membership renews, monthly, and only if you choose it.
Do we need other AI tools or paid accounts?
No. The guided AI tools and activities used in this course are inside CreatorKids. You do not need a separate AI subscription. Included image allowances apply; they are not unlimited.
Are there limits on how many pictures they can make?
Yes, and they are sized for the course. Lesson 1 includes 15 pictures. The full course includes 100, which never expire. Membership includes 120 a month across the whole library. Running out never takes the course away — only making new pictures pauses, and you can top up from the parent page.
Can we download and share the finished cartoon?
Yes. In Lesson 8 it plays in the browser straight away. We then render the full 1080p film with the voice they cast in Lesson 4 and their name on the end card, and email you a link to watch and download. It is theirs to show anyone you choose.
Can we use it on an iPad or tablet?
Yes. It runs in the web browser with nothing to install, on a laptop, Chromebook or tablet; a larger screen gives the activities more room. Lesson 5 is a pen and a piece of paper, on purpose.
Does a parent need to sit with them?
You handle the purchase and the two-minute set-up. After that the lessons are written for a child to follow on their own, at the pace of the video, with a trusted adult nearby for questions. Some activities invite a family conversation, and the end of the course is something they will want to show you.
What happens if we buy the full course later?
Your $1 buys Lesson 1 to keep and replay. Nothing renews automatically. If you choose the full course later, that payment is credited and the upgrade is $8.99.
Which purchase is right for our family?
Start with one lesson for $1, buy this whole course for $9.99, or choose library access for $19.99/month. The first two are one-time purchases. Membership renews monthly until you cancel.
Is there an annual membership?
Yes. The yearly option is $149/year for the same library access. You can compare it with the monthly option on the membership page. Membership access continues through your paid period if you cancel; separately purchased courses remain yours to revisit.
Does my child need to finish on a schedule?
No. Lessons are self-paced. Pause for an activity, replay an explanation, and come back when it suits your family. A course you buy outright is yours to keep; membership access lasts while subscribed.
