Brand Story: Scrollino

Do you remember what it was like reading your first storybook; the thrill of turning the page and not knowing what lay around the corner? To a child, books were gateways to imagination unbound and adventures in faraway lands. “Were” – because much of reading has become digitised in this day and age. Rather than sticking with the norms, Scrollino offers its own unique take on storytelling – in a form that kids of all ages can enjoy!

Novel beginnings

The brainchild of artists and founders Ludmila and Sylvain Favardin, Scollino began with a “Paper Comic Book” concept first developed in 2013. Three years later, Scrollino debuted its signature offering in the form of a roll book printed on a continuous receipt. Not only is it a fantastic way of introducing little ones to reading, but it does so without the use of any technological medium. Scrollino users are able to choose from a wide variety of stories and activities, be it a guessing game on zoo animals or a step-by-step guide to origami. There’s even room to tell your own story! 

Holistic development

Each of Scrollino’s offerings are designed to provide hours of fun, while simultaneously promoting the development of intellectual and motor skills. Take the Dino Colouring kit for example – the paper roll comes chock full of dinosaurs waiting to be coloured in. Throughout, the child also develops their fine motor skills (i.e. grasping and using a colour pencil) while improving their familiarity with different colours. And since all of this takes place in the absence of a digital screen, there’s also more restful sleep to be enjoyed!
