What is Tom’s Stories?

Written by Debra

Tom’s Stories is a short, fun story series inside Simply Draw where our awesome teacher Tom shares personal, kid-friendly stories to inspire creativity and confidence 🎨


What can I expect from each story?

  • Short "storytime" episodes (about 1–1.5 minutes) 🎬

  • A simple drawing idea at the end to help kids start creating right away ✏️


Where can I find Tom’s Stories?

You can find Tom’s Stories in its own section inside the app.

There may also be easy ways to access it from other areas (like your learning path), depending on the version of the app you’re using 🔎


Who can use Tom’s Stories? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

  • Available to English-speaking subscribers ⭐

  • Usually appears after you’ve been using the app for a little while (not right away on day one) 🌱


How many episodes are there? 🎥

Right now, there are just a few episodes available. When new episodes are added, you’ll still be able to go back and watch earlier ones 🔁


Tips for parents 👨‍👩‍👧

  • Use it as a starting point: Episodes are short on purpose—encourage your child to draw right after watching 🎨

  • Try the prompt together: Each story ends with a drawing idea to help spark creativity 💡

  • Rewatching is great: Kids often enjoy repeating stories that make them feel inspired or confident 💪


If you’re looking for a fun way to get inspired and start drawing, Tom’s Stories is a great place to begin 🌟
