Kinoo is an all-new way to connect kids and remote grown-ups through AR-enabled, co-play activities. Developed by a team of early-childhood social and emotional learning experts and led by the creators of the LeapFrog LeapPad and Living Books, Kinoo is transforming the way families video chat—offering fun and collaborative games and activities that allow remote family members to connect, play and learn together. Our patented Kinoo technology uses augmented reality to make remote family members feel like they are in the same room as they interact online. Children engage using the Kinoo Controller (KC) wand - a wireless, rechargeable, motion-sensing wand that adds the magic of movement as it transforms on-screen so kids can cast a line while fishing with Grandpa, stir batter while baking with Grandma, and more. Kinoo also features adorable in-app characters who join in on the fun and help facilitate intergenerational communication, elevating grandparent/grandchild interactions from one-word exchanges to laughter-filled playdates.

Give it a go! *2022-07-29* A good time was had by all! ### 5/5 — Kinoo Makes Video Calling 10x More Fun *2022-07-04* Got the Kinoo Connect Wand for my 4 yr old nephew for his birthday. Big hit for the family. My nephew loves using the wand to catch fish and bake cookies. Great video calling app with so many fun activities and games. Best of all mom and dad approved! ### 5/5 — Whipped Cream on a Pizza??? *2022-01-30* I Kinooed with an 8 year old, precocious son of a friend of mine for the first time last week. Jack loved popping crazy toppings on a virtual, tomato sauce pizza with me, from the basics — cheese, mushrooms, and olives — to shrimp, chili peppers, and even gummy worms. Then we found the can of whipped cream! We both simultaneously sprayed whipped cream all over our pizza, me from California and Jack in Massachusetts, while laughing and smiling with one another over Kinoo’s embedded video chat! Next, we found a whole new level of game play within this single activity (one of over a dozen highly unique games and starter activities in this app). Jack tapped a button to clear the pizza, and I drew a whipped cream TicTacToe grid on it! I thought Jack would draw a whipped cream X in a square. Oh no! Not creative Jack! He plopped some shredded cheddar cheese in a square as HIS marker. I studied the two dozen topping choices and decided to go for the gummy worms. I dragged my finger all over my square filling it FULL of red, green, yellow and blue wormies. The instant I started, however, Jack was already staking out another square! Not to be outdone, I quickly blocked his imminent win, only to have him cover my worms with grated cheese, as he attempted to declare victory! What?!!! “Jack! Wait a second!” I exclaimed. But my additional gummies were quickly covered with his cheddar, as we entered into an arms race of cheddar-gummy-cheese-worms as rapidly as we could both swipe our fingers. And my verbal, video protests were drowned out by Jack’s peels of laughter, and smiles. It was awesome! I have worked with Jack’s Dad for years, and this was the first time I’ve met Jack, though virtually. We’re now connected in a way I never thought possible, through 10 minutes of silly play — with Kinoo! Remarkable! We’ll Kinoo again soon :) ### 5/5 — Quality Playing Time *2021-12-16* We were looking for an app for my nephew so we can play together. This app definitely is a lot of fun! Pizza to go! ### 5/5 — Fun with the grand babies! *2021-12-10* Great way for me to connect and play with my grandkids who are far away on the other side of the country! They are 4 and almost 6 and both love games. What a fun experience playing together and I get to see them almost everyday! They can’t wait to play. ### 5/5 — Really cool new way to interact with family *2021-12-08* After some pandemic difficulties in travel, Kinoo has been a great solution to connecting my kids with their grandparents in a fun new way ## Frequently asked questions about Kinoo ### What is Kinoo?
