Brush Ninja for Schools

Brush Ninja provides simple, browser-based creative tools that work well in classrooms, clubs, and home learning environments.

Students can create animations, drawings, and digital artwork without needing accounts or personal profiles. This makes Brush Ninja easy to use in schools and suitable for a wide range of age groups.
