Brickinator

Draw it. Build it. Bring it to life!

Your kid draws a picture โ€” and it becomes a real, buildable brick creation with a parts list, step-by-step instructions, and then a stop-motion movie starring it.

What your kid can make

๐ŸŽจ Draw โ†’ ๐Ÿงฑ Build

Draw anything (or snap a photo) and press Brickify! โ€” it pops into a studded brick mosaic with a shopping list of real pieces and row-by-row build instructions, like a real set.

๐ŸงŠ Real 3D builds

Drawings become standing walls and sculptures. Scan an actual toy with the camera and turn it into a buildable brick model โ€” supports and all.

๐ŸŽฌ Stop-motion movies

A full movie studio: draw or photograph frames, add rocket flames and smoke, record a voice-over, and save a GIF that plays anywhere. Grandma-ready.

โœ‚๏ธ Magic scissors

Tap a photo of any toy and it's snipped out into a movable movie puppet โ€” AI that runs entirely on your device (one-time download). Nothing is ever uploaded.

๐Ÿ‘ถ Little Kids mode

A full-screen, wordless brick stamper for toddlers: giant buttons, happy sounds, nothing to break โ€” and a hold-to-exit only a grown-up can use.

โญ Pride, not addiction

Badges for finishing things and a gallery to show them off. No streaks, no timers, no tricks to keep kids hooked. When they're done, they're done.

Why this exists: a 10-year-old had ideas, and his dad kept saying "we could build that." Brickinator is their joint venture โ€” his imagination, dad's keyboard, and a corner made specially for his 3-year-old brother. Every feature in here started as something one kid actually wanted to make.
The promise to parents โ€” nothing your child makes ever leaves the device:
  • No accounts, no sign-ups, no email
  • No ads, no tracking, no analytics, no data collection of any kind
  • No chat, no strangers, no way for anyone to contact your child
  • Camera & microphone work on-device only โ€” photos and voice-overs are never uploaded
  • Works offline โ€” road trips welcome (Magic Scissors needs Wi-Fi just once to download its AI)
