Creating an Avatar in ABCmouse 2

One of the fun ways ABCmouse 2 personalizes your child’s learning experience is through the Avatar Builder. Children can create their own character to represent themselves and express their creativity as they explore activities and adventures.

• Getting Started in My World
• Avatar Builder
• Where Avatar Appears in ABCmouse 2
• Change Your Avatar Anytime

Get Started in My World

1. From the ABCmouse 2 home screen, tap the My World tile (upper-right

   

2. In My World, select My Avatar.

• If you have a new profile, you’ll see a placeholder avatar with a pencil icon.

• Tap the avatar, name, or pencil icon to begin editing.

Avatar Builder

1. Your child will be guided through screens with customization options, including:

   • Skin color

   • Hair color and style

   • Eyes, nose, and mouth

   • Clothing and accessories (tops, bottoms, shoes, glasses

2. Use the arrows to move forward and back through options, or tap icons at the top to jump between sections.

3. Tap the green checkmark when finished. Avatars can always be updated later.

Skin Color

For example, the first Avatar Builder screen is for skin color. Select a colour and you'll see how your avatar looks with that choice.

Hair Colour and Style

As another example, you can select a colour for your Avatar's hair in the top row (you can scroll side to side to see all the options). Select a hair style from the options below (scroll to see all).


 

We won't show all the body personalization screens here, but there are options to personalize the Avatar's eyes, mouth/smile, and nose. 

The next section of the Avatar Builder takes you through the choices for clothing and accessories.

Select from the selection of tops, bottoms, shoes, and glasses. When you've finished personalizing your Avatar (for now), click the green check button.
 

Where the Avatar Appears

Once created, your child’s avatar will be visible in several places:

• My World

• Home screen (upper-left corner for the current user)

• Change User screen
  
  
  
  

Change Your Avatar Anytime

• To update an avatar, tap the edit/pencil icon in My World or on the Change User screen.

• Children can change hairstyles, outfits, or other features as often as they like

Good to Know

• Avatars are linked to individual child profiles, so each child can create their own unique character.

• Personalizing an avatar can help children feel more connected and motivated in their learning journey.
