a class world in action — kid drawings alive in space
a real world in action — the rocket, the astronaut, and the space car were all drawn by kids on paper, minutes before this

the activity (one demo is all it takes)

1
open it on the class screen or iPadyour class world and its 4-letter code appear on their own — that's the whole setup
2
pick a world & demo one scandraw anything, snap it with 📷, watch it come alive in front of them. that's the demo
3
hand out paper and get out of the waythey'll take off — we've watched it happen. scan their drawings as they finish, or let them line up at the iPad. littles too: preschoolers draw, you run the camera
bonus: families can scan drawings into the class world from home, and your class code works all year. once a week, you can get the class email — everything that came alive, at your work email. no marketing, ever.

send the world home

print the take-home sheet — a page with your class's real creations and a QR code — and send it home in backpacks. parents scan it at the kitchen table and watch what their kid made today. this is the part kids brag about.

no student accounts
no student names or emails
no tracking, no ads
no data sold, ever
Paper Worlds never receives personal information about students — not a name, not an email, not a photo of a child. We store only the drawings themselves and a random class code. Camera photos are processed on the device and discarded; location data never leaves the device. Because no student data is ever collected, FERPA education records never touch us, and our COPPA footprint is the minimum the law contemplates. The full promises live in our terms & privacy — one page, written for humans.
