Screen-free drawing toy brings hands-on creative play to families with 150 picture cards and step-by-step guidance
NEW YORK, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — GROWNSY today announced that its Smart Drawing Robot has won a 2026 National Parenting Product Award (NAPPA). The screen-free toy introduces children to drawing through picture cards, voice prompts, and light guidance, with NAPPA evaluators highlighting its simple setup, recognizable drawings, and extensive picture library.
Designed for children ages 3–8, the Montessori-inspired robot gives families a straightforward way to bring drawing into everyday play. Children scan one of 150 included cards and watch the robot draw the image step by step. They can then trace, color, or try recreating the picture themselves, practicing observation and hand-eye coordination as they explore. No app or Wi-Fi connection is required.
NAPPA’s evaluation captured how that experience translated into family play. “Out of the box, the set up was really simple and intuitive,” one evaluator wrote. Another described a daughter learning to draw by watching the robot, offering a concrete example of how children can take inspiration from its guided demonstrations.
“Winning a NAPPA Award means a lot for our team because it comes from real parents, testing products in real moments. The Smart Drawing Robot was built to give kids a hands-on, screen-free way to create, and knowing it’s delivering on that promise is exactly why we do what we do,” said Karen, PR manager at GROWNSY.
The set includes 150 picture cards, 12 washable markers, five drawing pens, a reusable drawing board, and a USB-C charging cable. Sound effects, spoken instructions, and responsive lighting accompany the drawing process. Automatic standby helps conserve battery power between sessions, while lighting adjusts to the surrounding environment.
The Smart Drawing Robot extends GROWNSY’s baby care portfolio into creative play, bringing the brand’s “Grow smart, made easy” philosophy to another part of family life: helping children explore drawing through an activity parents can easily introduce at home.
