Kiddo writes and illustrates a whole book around your child — their name, their face, the things they love and the things they're scared of — then reads it aloud.
Four steps, about two minutes, and nothing to write yourself.
Upload one photo. Kiddo turns it into a storybook character that keeps their hair, their eyes, their freckles — then reuses that same character on every page of every book they ever get.
The photo isn't stored. Only the character is kept.
Six worlds to set the story in, and eight art styles to draw it in. Watch closely — it's the same child in every one of them.
THE WORLD

PixarTheir name, their world, and the thing they're scared of — woven into a story where they're the one who isn't frightened.
Working title
Mia and the Thunder That Said Hello
Page 1
The first thunder came while Mia was painting. It rolled across the sky like a door closing somewhere very large, and her brush stopped moving. Mia did not like thunder. But tonight the thunder did something it had never done before — it waited, as if it wanted to be introduced.
CHALLENGESame Mia in every one — same hair, same freckles, same face. What changes is what the story is for. Pick a purpose and Kiddo writes to it.
Mia and the Thunder That Said Hello
She's afraid of thunder. So the thunder becomes something she learns to conduct — and by the last page she's the one who isn't frightened.

Her name, her face — page oneMia and the Thunder That Said Hello
The first thunder came while Mia was painting. It rolled across the sky like a door closing somewhere very large, and her brush stopped moving. Mia did not like thunder. But tonight the thunder did something it had never done before — it waited, as if it wanted to be introduced.
Set a timer and hand the phone over. Kiddo plays one narrated story after another — no menus, no choosing, nothing to tap — until the timer runs out and the room goes quiet on its own.
TONIGHT'S QUEUE

Nia's Goodnight FirefliesPlayingLila's Moonlit Quilt5:00Remi and the Purple PuffFinishes anywayNia's Pocket of Stars4:00When the timer runs out during a story, Kiddo plays it to the end. No child has ever fallen asleep to a sentence cut in half.
Child Mode locks the reader's controls, so they can hold the phone, tap anywhere, and nothing skips, exits or stops. It only unlocks when a grown-up holds the shield down.
Stories dissolve into each other over two seconds, with a four-second pause between — long enough to settle, short enough that they never notice it stopped.
Narration fades to 70% of where it started across the session, so the last story is a murmur rather than a full-voiced performance.
Three stories a month, free, for as long as you want. Plus is there if you need more — but nothing here is ever sold to your child.
Written, illustrated and narrated in each one — not machine-subtitled after the fact.
When one story lands, Kiddo builds the next episodes around the same hero — so a good night turns into a whole run of them.
Add the people your child actually knows. They get their own characters, and they show up on the page.
A quick feed of animated openings for when you want something good and you want it now.
Every child gets their own profile, their own character and their own library, all under one account.
Kiddo AI is free to use — forever. No ads, no paywalls on the core experience, no credit card. Plus is there if your family wants more.
Everything you need to start
No credit card required
For families who read every night
Optional — never required
Made with love for families — not for advertisers.
Each child gets their own character, their own profile and their own library — and whoever does bedtime tonight can pick up where the last one left off.
Their own age, reading level, interests and fears. Two children in the same house get genuinely different books.
Invite the other parent, grandparents, anyone who reads at bedtime. Same library, same characters, no second account.
Add their friends and family as supporting characters, and they turn up in the story alongside your child.
