Are you running out of storage for your children’s art projects? Try one of these apps for kids art to keep them safe without the clutter.
Photo Storage Apps for kids art
I’m so excited to share with you some awesome apps for kids art storage. I don’t know about you, but each time my kids bring home their “treasures” they made in school, I have an internal struggle.
It is a struggle between the joy I feel looking at their creations and the irritation I harbor at their teachers for yet another art project I have to find room for.
In this wonderful age of technology, you can reduce your mom guilt and clutter by utilizing an artwork storage app. You simply take a photo of each piece upload it to the app, and it’s digitally stored for you.
Let’s get started with photo storage apps.
Below are some of the top apps so you can determine which is the right one for you.
5 of the best apps for kids art
1. Keepy
If you don’t have a ton of art to upload each month, Keepy is a great free option for up to 7 memories a month. You can pay for varying subscription levels if you have more to upload.
What’s neat about Keepy is that you can voice-record your child describing their art and attach it to the photo. It’s also shareable with grandparents or other family members.
Get it through GooglePlay or iTunes. You will love recording video and having that keepsake.
2. Artkive
This one is both an app and offers you something tangible! You can upload your images for storage or simply mail your child’s artwork to Artkive using a pre-paid UPS label.
If you mail them in, Artkive’s specialists professionally digitize the artwork and create a book which you proof and send you a coffee table-quality book full of your child’s art (if you choose to go that route).
You can check out pricing options on iTunes and while free on ANDROID, the reviews of the app aren’t great; you might want to stick with the mail-in option. For books, packages start at varying prices and there are often artkive offers.
3. Canvsly
The Canvsly app is nice because you can create albums for each child, and more than one person can share the same account. So, you and Dad can both upload to the account. Art work can be cropped and rotated.
You are able to print all kinds of fun gifts and keepsakes from Canvsly, too. Available on iTunes for $2.99, but again, kind of dodgy on ANDROID.
4. Artsonia
Artsonia works well as a link between parents and teachers. If privacy is important to you, this is not the right app for you – images are shared publicly on social media and more.
That said, there are contests and prizes, so this can be a fun app for your child if she’s a blossoming Picasso! Talk to your child’s art teacher to see if he or she is a member, and if so, they’ll have a code for you.
If not, you can sign up for one of the personal art galleries online.
5. Artbook
Turn your child’s art work into an online book featuring all of the art. You can share these with others and invite family and friends to join. Artbook also allows you to purchase hard copies as well.
You don’t have to feel guilty about tossing your child’s artwork with these handy online features.
