About Little Folio
Kids make a lot of art. Most of it ends up in a drawer, a box in the loft, or quietly in the recycling. Little Folio is a calm, private place to keep all of it, and the stories that go with it, for good.
Why we made Little Folio
Hi, we're the family behind Little Folio. One of us is a psychologist, the other is a graphic designer, and our two kids keep the kitchen table covered in paint, glue and paper.
Some of our favorite hours are spent making things together: drawings, paintings, cardboard castles and whatever else an afternoon turns into. We wanted a simple, friendly place to keep all of it, along with the stories our kids tell us about each piece, in their own words.
Not all of our family lives nearby. Little Folio lets siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, friends and grandparents see what the kids have been making, wherever they are, and only the people you invite.
As a psychologist, one of us thinks a lot about what helps kids grow. Feeling seen for what they make matters, and so does staying curious. Our kids are growing up in a digital world, and we want that world to invite them to create, not just to scroll.
As a graphic designer, the other cares about how things look and feel. Little Folio should be calm, beautiful, and easy enough for a grandparent to use on the very first try.
And honestly, the piles get big. We still keep the originals in a box for a rainy day, and we'd suggest you do too. But life gets busy and things pile up, so Little Folio keeps every piece safe, in a fun way, without the clutter.
From our family to yours.
Snap it before it gets recycled
Take a photo of the drawing and Little Folio straightens and crops it for you. The fridge only has so much room; this has room for all of it.
In their words
Write down what they said it was, exactly how they said it, or record them telling the story. Years from now that's the part you'll treasure most.
Show it off
See their art on a fridge, a pinboard, a gallery wall or in a cosy bedroom. Turn pieces into greeting cards, colouring pages and a year-in-review slideshow.
Only the family you invite
Galleries are private. Grandparents and aunties see what you share once you invite them, and nobody else can.
What it costs
It's free to start, with room for 100 pieces. There are no ads, and we never sell your family's photos or information. Read the privacy page for the details.
