We’ve got some exciting news and we’re more than a little chuffed to bits.
The Jungle Squad augmented reality app has been officially recognised in the Augmented Reality category of the Web Excellence Awards, celebrating excellence and innovation in digital experiences from around the world.
Being recognised as an award-winning app in the competitive world of children’s digital experiences is a huge milestone for us. But more importantly, it reinforces what Jungle Squad is all about: creating playful, meaningful experiences where imagination and technology work together.
What Makes Our AR App for Kids Unique
The Jungle Squad platform was built to extend our storytelling beyond the page and our AR app for kids does exactly that.
Designed as an immersive and intuitive children’s augmented reality experience, the app transforms everyday spaces into interactive jungle adventures.
A huge part of that uniqueness comes down to the characters themselves and the care taken in bringing them to life.
Creating characters for an AR app for kids demands a completely different approach than traditional illustration. Each Jungle Squad hero was designed with animation, rigging and augmented reality interaction in mind from day one. Detailed turnaround sheets ensured the characters worked from every perspective, while expression and movement studies helped maintain personality once translated into 3D form.
This careful development process is what allows our interactive AR cards to unlock characters that feel alive and not flat. The result is a seamless blend of art, storytelling and technology within our award-winning augmented reality app.
How the Jungle Squad AR Experience Works
The magic begins with our interactive Jungle Squad Hero Cards. Simply scan your Jungle Squad Cards using the app and watch the characters come to life in your own environment.
These aren’t just collectable cards, they’re interactive AR cards designed to unlock new layers of storytelling and gameplay. Children can explore characters up close, engage with digital animations, and immerse themselves in the Jungle Squad universe in a completely new way.
It’s a seamless blend of physical play and digital innovation, a truly modern interactive learning app experience.
It’s also completely free to get started. You can download the free AR app here:
A Full Interactive Kids Game Experience
The Jungle Squad AR app is just one part of our wider digital world.
Children can also play the Jungle Squad game online to continue their adventure. Whether through augmented reality or web-based gameplay, everything connects back to one immersive jungle universe designed around fun, exploration, and creativity.
If you’re new to Jungle Squad, you can also discover the full Jungle Squad experience and see how our storytelling, cards, and digital platforms work together.
Our goal has always been to build a cohesive kids digital experience that moves fluidly between physical products and interactive technology.
Recognised by the Web Excellence Awards
The Web Excellence Awards celebrate outstanding innovation across digital platforms worldwide. Being recognised in the Augmented Reality category places Jungle Squad alongside some of the most creative and technically accomplished digital projects globally.
For us, this recognition confirms that our approach to educational AR apps and immersive storytelling resonates beyond our community.
This isn’t just about flashy technology. It’s about using augmented reality thoughtfully to support imagination, curiosity, and meaningful play.
Winning in the Augmented Reality category reinforces that our award-winning augmented reality app stands out for both creativity and user experience.
Why Augmented Reality Matters for Children
Augmented reality offers something uniquely powerful for young audiences.
Unlike traditional mobile games, a well-designed AR app for kids encourages interaction with the real world. It invites children to move around, explore their surroundings, and engage with characters in a spatial, hands-on way.
By scanning their AR cards, children aren’t just tapping a screen, they’re unlocking moments of discovery.
That’s what excites us most about this technology. It doesn’t replace imagination. It amplifies it.
And when combined with storytelling and collectable cards, it creates an experience that feels both magical and meaningful.
