App Description

At DIY, we believe that every kid is inherently creative. That's why our mission is to give kids all over the world a safe space to build, create, and grow together!

The DIY app offers kids a safe and moderated platform to chat, share their creations, collaborate over projects, and make friends over common interests! There are over 150 interests for kids to explore like art, gaming, coding, music, anime, drawing, science, fandoms, etc, and DIYers add new ones to the platform everyday by hosting challenges, live workshops, and contests of their own. In fact, nearly all the challenges, contests, and live workshops on DIY today are hosted by kids for other kids! For kids who want to explore new interests, we have a library of DIY videos and hands-on projects they can try to trck their progress!

Our extensive safety features ensure that kids can operate the app independently and achieve their creative potential without fear of bullying, negativity, or icky content.

If you're between the ages 5 and 17, all you need to do to join the DIY community is sign up, create your DIY profile, and verify your account. That's it!
