Are you a parent / aunt / uncle/ grandparent / someone who just happens to know a child who loves to draw?! My daughters have always loved to paint. In fact, not a day goes by without some kind of creativity. At one point, when Liv was at nursery, she was so prolific, she’d run through the door clasping 10 “masterpieces”. As lovely as it is to see, le’t face it, it can be hard to know what on earth to do with them all, don’t you think?! At worst there might be one line per page but even the beautiful ones are on poor quality paper that’s become a little scrunched and ripped in their school bag!
And then I discovered the app . I’m the first to admit that I’m terrified of anything techy (seriously!) – but this app is GENIUS and sooooo simple! Available (almost) worldwide on and , Doodlespot allows you to capture your child’s artwork on your phone. You can then have a play around with the design tools and templates before ordering the framed print straight to your door. I asked the crazies to choose their favourite paintings so we could put the app to the test!

My ten year old daughter chose ‘Lazy River’ (seen above and below) which she painted in art class a few weeks ago. She went for a classic portrait template with her name and age underneath so it would look super pro (just like her wonderful piece!). I think she’s proudly shown the print to every single person who’s walked through the door!
ALLIE
My younger daughter chose a painting she did of our house and was as pleased as punch when it arrived. Even though the painting was drawn in landscape, she chose the ‘portrait’ format and had a little play around with the colours – and since she’s the artist, who am I to disagree?!
Doodlespot co-founder Stefan Persson tells me: “Our driving force is child creativity. It is all about helping children to explore and experiment, then we enable you to transform their creations into art you can display on your walls. Filling your home with your own child’s art is such a beautiful thing.”
The girls and I are so pleased, we’ve already started thinking about which artwork to get done next! It would make such a great present too, don’t you think?
Oh, and another thing – part of the proceeds are donated to ‘War Child’, a non-profit organisation helping children traumatised by war. Such a worthwhile cause.
If you’d love to give a try*, make the most of a 25% discount with the code follow25 until 10th June, 2019!

PS I think the last time I showed my crazies together in a post was in back in 2014 – with the risk of sounding like a great aunt…. haven’t they grown?!!
