TechCrunch reporter Sarah Perez has been at her current haunt since August 2011. Most recently, she reported on the release of a creative new app that allows users to transform their favorite photos into engaging coloring book pages for kids. This simple, clever app wins the hearts of parents and educators, delivering an ultra-creative, STEM-inspired experience that’s both fun and interactive.
Prior to TechCrunch, Sarah helped launch the world’s first blog focused on the business of technology, ReadWriteWeb, where she deepened her technology reporting expertise. Her I.T. experience includes banking, retail and a variety of commercial software applications. This experience deeply informs her perspectives on today’s technology landscape.
The dynamic new app allows for extensive customization to fit users’ needs. It’s now so easy for users to create custom coloring pages that reflect their individual preferences and styles. Users can select photos or videos from their media library. The app takes these images and turns them into printable art ready to be colored, cut-out, or otherwise incorporated into creative fun!
The app has a weekly subscription plan providing you with unlimited access to 25 new coloring pages each week. Or, annually, you can select our annual plan, which gives you 500 pages to use throughout the year. The cost is only $4.99 per week or $49.99 annually. This includes a reasonable price point that makes it accessible for families looking to engage their kids in creative pursuits regularly.
Early rounds of the app’s testing have validated its success—users have found that it does what it says it will do. The turnaround time for new pictures is incredibly short, ensuring access to new material almost instantly. This aspect of the feature makes it hugely popular among parents wanting to keep their kids occupied while creatively stimulating them.
