Kids Diary: Draw, Talk & Video
Ages 3-8, No Reading Needed
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A diary for kids who cannot write yet: record video, talk, draw and add animated stickers. Pick a mood and save the day. Fully offline, no ads, no tracking, no purchases.
Kids Diary is a picture diary for children aged 3-8 who cannot read or write yet. Pick a mood, record a short video, say a few words, draw with a finger and add animated stickers - the day is saved. Every label has a reading aid, so kids can use it on their own.
WHY KIDS CAN DO IT THEMSELVES
- No typing: video, voice, drawing and stickers cover every way a child wants to express themselves.
- Every button has an icon and a reading aid, so there is nothing to explain first.
- A star celebration and a spoken encouragement reward each finished page.
- One page per day, with a timeline to flip back through.
FOUR WAYS TO RECORD
- Mood: choose from 10 animated Noto Emoji faces.
- Video: film what happened today.
- Voice: record your own voice.
- Draw: brush, eraser, undo, clear.
- Stickers: decorate the page with animated stickers.
- Video diary: pick a background, music, intro and outro, then combine everything into a short film.

DEVICES
iPhone and iPad, portrait or landscape, including Split View and Slide Over.
MOMENTS THAT FIT
- The walk home when there is something to say.
- Weekends, trips, birthdays and the first bike ride.
- The best part of today, right before bed.
- One page a day through the school holidays.
WHAT KIDS GAIN
- Expression: wanting to say it, then daring to.
- Observation: noticing what was different today.
- Memory: finding this day again a year later.
PARENT FAQ
Does it need internet? No. It works fully in airplane mode.
Are my child's photos or voice uploaded? No. There is no server and no account system.
Are there ads or purchases? No, and no paid items of any kind.
Can my child delete a diary by accident? Export, delete and language settings sit behind a math gate in the Parent Centre.
Will diaries transfer to a new device? Entries live on this device only; deleting the app removes them, so export first from the Parent Centre.
