## What is Talewick?

Talewick helps parents turn familiar people, places and ideas into beautifully illustrated stories to share with young children.

CREATE SOMETHING PERSONAL
• Build stories around animals, school, family, trains, dragons and familiar words.
• Choose from twelve gentle morals, including kindness, confidence, patience, teamwork and understanding feelings.
• Save a child profile and preferred language once, then keep story creation simple.
• Create stories in multiple languages, including English, Hindi, Malayalam and French.

MADE FOR READING TOGETHER
• Enjoy a calm, matte reading experience designed for parents and children.
• Explore full-width illustrations with pinch-to-zoom.
• Keep the screen awake while you narrate.
• Leave the screen while a story is being made—generation continues safely in the background.

TALK TOGETHER
• Try playful, parent-led activities for first words, little sentences, taking turns and understanding.
• Use familiar people, words and favourite Talewick stories to make communication feel natural.
• Follow simple prompts with no timers, tests, child scores or recordings.

• Search and filter by favourite or month.
• Keep profiles, familiar words and story defaults organised in Settings.
