Built by parents.
For parents.

DeskBaby started with a problem every parent knows. A toddler who wanted the keyboard more than anything, and a parent who still had work to do.

The story

Every parent knows the moment. You sit down at the laptop and suddenly there are tiny hands reaching for the keyboard. Mid-email, mid-meeting, mid-anything.

The usual options are not great. Hand over the phone (too much). Distract with a snack (buys you two minutes). Try to type one-handed while holding them (you know how that goes).

DeskBaby is the third option. Hand them the keyboard. Every key explodes into colour, sparkles, and sound. The screen locks so nothing can be closed or broken. You get five minutes. Maybe ten.

What it does

Fullscreen lock

The moment play starts, the screen locks. Tiny hands cannot close tabs, switch apps, or get into anything. Type EXIT or hold the DeskBaby pill at any time to get back in.

Four worlds

Cosmic, Jungle, Ocean, and Flags. Each one has its own creatures, colours, and sounds. No two keypresses feel the same.

Flag Hunt mode

Spell a country name and its flag appears on a spinning 3D globe. All 250 plus countries are in there. Genuinely educational, completely accidental.

Parent settings

Adjust sound, letter duration, particle intensity, night mode, and emojis per key. All accessible without ending the session.
