‘Where’s Smudge Gone?’ is the first in a series of interactive stories from Paper Pals for little cherubs under five. The adventures of Inky and his bestest buddy Smudge are full of educational games designed to get little ones learning through play.

There are seven games in the first edition. Each one will get children counting, matching patterns and repeating sounds in order to reunite the inseparable friends. And all in ways stubby little digits are used to playing. Children can tap, tilt and slide their way through the beautifully crafted and animated paper world and meet lots of friendly faces along the way.

There’s George the monocle-wearing fish, Clive the banana-loving monkey, Margo and Cybill the paddling penguins, Betty the beat-boxing frog, Frank the greedy gobbling bird, and Jenkins the forgetful elephant, to mention just a few.
