ClayPals

Free on the App Store · iPhone & iPad · Ages 2–4

Clay fruits and veggies, and the words that name them.

ClayPals: Fruits & Veggies is a claymation puzzle toy for two-, three- and four-year-olds. Twenty-eight clay fruits and vegetables, each in the place it grows. Finish one and it says its own name out loud, then spells it.

Seven foods free forever. No ads, no subscription, no accounts, and nothing about your child is collected.

A clay orchard scene: green modelling-clay grass, a leafy apple tree, little yellow and pink flowers and soft white clouds.
A smiling red clay apple, ready to be dropped into the scene.

How a food goes together

Two gentle puzzles, then the word.

The same three beats every time, in the same order, for every food. Nothing is timed, and a puzzle waits as long as they need.

  1. The clay orchard with the apple's dark outline waiting on the grass, and the whole clay apple on the shelf beside it, ready to be slid home.

    Slide it home

    The apple into the orchard, the carrot into the garden bed, the grapes onto the vine. One big target, generous snapping, no rotation to fight with — and no wrong answers to get.

  2. The apple's outline on the orchard grass, with its three big clay pieces waiting on the shelf to be pressed back into place.

    Build it back

    The food splits into three or four big clay pieces, sized for a two-year-old's grip. A wiggle, a satisfying pop, and it's whole again. A piece in the wrong place just springs back.

  3. Then it says the word

    The finished food says its own name out loud, then the letters are named one at a time on a little word card. A few seconds of print — never a quiz, and a grown-up can switch it off in the Parents' Corner.

What's not in it

It's the quiet one.

No ads, no scores, no streaks, nothing collected — and after one purchase it never asks you for anything again.

It respects your room

Flip the hardware mute switch and the app goes silent. Start a podcast and it plays politely underneath instead of taking over your audio. The background music is quiet by default and switches off in one tap.

The same four seconds, every time

Every celebration is one four-second clip. The same gentle moment for that food, however many times it is finished.

Nothing leaves the device

No analytics, no tracking, no accounts, no microphone and no speech recognition — the app never listens. It plays fully in airplane mode. Apple privacy label: Data Not Collected.

Big pieces for little fingers. No time limits, no wrong answers, nothing to fall behind on — a puzzle waits as long as they need.
