Everything a young artist needs
A canvas for anything
A clean, blank page where kids draw whatever they imagine — over the lines, off the lines, wherever the idea takes them. No rules, no wrong answers, just pure creating.
Colors made to delight
A big, friendly palette and easy brush sizes, tuned so every stroke looks bright and satisfying — the kind of colors that make a child want to keep drawing.
Drawing games that teach
Trace-a-shape and other gentle drawing games turn early practice into play, building the fine-motor control that helps with writing later — without ever feeling like a lesson.
A blank canvas for big imaginations
Coloring pages are wonderful, but sometimes a child just wants to make something entirely their own. The free-draw canvas is exactly that — a wide-open space with a rainbow of colors and nothing to color inside.
It’s where a scribble becomes a sun, a family, a dinosaur with seven legs. The kind of open-ended play that grows real creativity.

Save to My Art
Every drawing is saved to the on-device My Art gallery to revisit, add to and admire.
Drawing games, not just a canvas
Beyond the free canvas, MaddieDraw includes gentle drawing games — trace along the lines to form a shape, steady the hand, and watch a picture appear. Playful practice that quietly builds real skill.
And when they’d rather fill in a picture, tap-to-fill coloring is right there too. See the coloring games.
Every masterpiece, kept safe
Each drawing is saved to the My Art gallery right on the device — no account, no upload, nothing shared. Kids can revisit a favorite, keep adding to it, or proudly show a grown-up, with all the privacy that keeps parents comfortable.
Drawing app for kids — frequently asked questions
Is MaddieDraw a drawing app or drawing games?
Both. There’s a wide-open free-draw canvas for drawing anything, plus gentle drawing games like trace-a-shape. Kids can freely create, or play a game — whatever suits the moment.
Is the drawing app free?
Yes. The free-draw canvas and drawing games are free to play. An optional MaddieDraw Plus subscription unlocks the full coloring library and sits behind a grown-ups-only parental gate.
What can my child draw?
Anything they imagine. It’s a blank canvas with a big palette and brush sizes — no templates required, no lines to stay inside. Perfect for open-ended creativity.
Are drawings saved, and can we keep them?
Yes. Every drawing saves to the My Art gallery on the device, so kids can revisit and keep adding to their favorites. Nothing is uploaded.
What age is the drawing app for?
Roughly ages 3 to 8. Younger kids love scribbling freely; the trace-a-shape games help older ones build control and confidence.
Does it work offline, and are there ads?
It’s fully offline — no Wi-Fi or data needed — and there are no ads at all. Nothing is ever marketed to your child.
Does it work with a stylus or Apple Pencil?
Yes. Drawing works beautifully with a fingertip, and also with a stylus or Apple Pencil on supported devices — lovely on an iPad for a bigger canvas.
