Hi,

We'd like to invite you to try ToonDoo, easy-to-use an online comic strip creator that is currently being used creatively by many schools and educators.

With ToonDoo, students can easily create comic strips without having to draw and express themselves on a variety of topics. There are loads of inbuilt characters available at ToonDoo and even the ability to import your own images from anywhere on the web. Published comics can easily be embedded in blogs and websites or saved / printed directly from the site. Students can also combine individual strips into a book.

ToonDoo comes from Jambav, an educational entertainment platform for children of all abilities and ages. We're also offering exclusive private domains for schools and educators as this minimizes the risk of inappropriate content.

Please do check it out and tell us what you think. We would love to hear from you!
