A new app called “Drawnimal” encourages “i-generation” kids to think outside of the screen, literally.

Users are encouraged to encorpate the screen into drawings of animals, that both encourage and respond to the child’s creations.

I think it’s particularly interesting today, when everything is being transformed into the world of touch-screens, to incorporate this traditional art form: paper and pen is required to use the app.

The creators of the app have also mentioned that the app will hopefully aid kids to learn the alphabet.

You can see a demonstration of the app below:
