About
Launchpad Toys created digital toys and creative tools that let kids create, learn, and share ideas through play on mobile devices like the iPad. Its debut product, Toontastic, was a creative-learning app blending constructionist and social-development theory to bridge the gap between informal imaginative play (ages 4-5) and formal creative writing (ages 8-10). The company was acquired by Google in 2015 and its team went on to build Toontastic 3D.
