Quick answer

How do I make a cartoon video for a kids song? Upload your song to Clipbeat and ask for a cartoon for kids. No photo needed and no real people appear: cartoon characters only. It costs $5 for a song up to 2 minutes and $11 for a 3-minute song, paid once.

Small children watch characters, colours and shapes, not camera tricks. A kids song video works when every scene is bright and easy to read, the same friendly character turns up again and again, and nothing on screen is scary, fast or confusing. Getting there by hand means drawing or commissioning dozens of matching pictures and lining them up with the song.

Clipbeat does it from your finished track. Upload your song, open the AI Director and ask for a cartoon for kids. The director switches the project to a children's cartoon: no photo needed, no real people, cartoon characters only, one cute lead character kept through the video and calm pacing that suits young viewers. You see the price for your song's length and pay once; the whole video is then made for you.

How it works

  1. STEP 1

    Upload your song

    Drop the mp3 or wav of the children's song into the studio. Your own recording, a song you licensed or a track you made with a music tool whose terms allow publishing all work.

  2. STEP 2

    Pick a cartoon star

    Start from this page and Clipbeat opens in Kids mode. Pick a cartoon star or describe who the song is about: a little bear, a toy rocket, a family of ducks. Kids mode keeps the cartoon style for the whole video.

  3. STEP 3

    Check the price and pay once

    The summary card shows one button with the price for your song's length: $5 up to 2 minutes, $11 for 3 minutes. Before that, you watch a short cartoon preview of your song with the character you picked; it comes with the $5 credit pack.

  4. STEP 4

    Get the finished video

    Clipbeat plans the scenes, makes every picture in the cartoon style and assembles the whole song. You download a 1080p video without a watermark, in 16:9 or 9:16.

No photo needed, no real people

Kids mode never asks for a selfie, a face photo or a picture of a child, and it does not put a real person in the video. Every character is drawn in a cartoon or soft anime look. If you had a saved face or an AI singer selected for another project, kids mode leaves it out, so the video stays cartoon-only from the first scene to the last.

That matters for parents, teachers and channels that publish for children. You are not sending anyone's photo to make the video, and there is no risk of a realistic face of a stranger appearing next to your child's favourite song.

What a kids cartoon video looks like

The director follows a set of rules written for young audiences. You can steer the character and the setting in your own words; the rules keep the result gentle:

  • One cute lead character, such as an animal, a toy or a friendly cartoon figure, with the same shape, colours and outfit in each scene
  • Scenes that show what the lyrics name: numbers, colours, animals, fruit, the sun and the stars
  • Slow, calm editing with long scenes and soft camera moves; no flashing, no strobing, no fast cuts
  • Warm, safe places like meadows, playrooms and gardens, or a cosy bedroom for a lullaby
  • A bright palette kept from scene to scene, with soft rounded shapes

How to ask for it

You do not need a special menu. After you upload the song, type your request into the AI Director chat. "Make a cartoon for my kids song", "a cartoon for toddlers about a sleepy owl" and "cartoon video for children, farm animals" all work. The director confirms the switch, and the summary card changes to the cartoon brief with a single buy button.

Add whatever you care about in the same message: the main character, the place, the colours, the mood. If you leave it open, the director picks a lead character and a setting that fit the lyrics.

The preview in kids mode

In the regular singer flow the preview shows a singer performing your chorus. Kids videos have no singer on screen, so the kids preview is a short cartoon clip of your song with the character and world you picked; it comes with the $5 credit pack. After you watch it, you see the price of the full video for the length of your song and pay once for it.

Pricing is the same per-length price as every other video: $5 for a song up to 2 minutes, $11 for a 3-minute song and $17 for a 5-minute song. Kids videos cover songs up to 5 minutes; on a longer track the video is made from the first 5 minutes. If you already have credits on your account, the same button uses them instead of a card checkout.

Publishing kids content responsibly

If you publish on YouTube, you choose whether a video is made for kids. Content aimed at children falls under YouTube's made-for-kids rules and laws such as COPPA in the United States, which change how comments and personalised ads work on that video. Clipbeat makes the file; the audience setting is yours.

You also need the rights to the song. Traditional nursery rhymes are often in the public domain, but a particular recording or arrangement usually is not. Watch the finished video before you post it: you know your audience best.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to upload a photo?

No. Kids mode uses cartoon characters only, so there is no photo, selfie or face to upload, and no real people appear in the video.

How much does a kids cartoon video cost?

$5 for a song up to 2 minutes, $11 for a 3-minute song and $17 for a 5-minute song. You pay once, with no subscription, and the exact price is on the button before you pay.

Is there an example kids video I can watch?

Not yet. Our showcase currently has music videos with human singers, which is not what kids mode makes, so we do not show them on this page.

Can I choose the character?

Yes. Describe the character in the AI Director chat, for example "a small orange fox with a blue scarf". If you do not, the director picks one that fits the song.

Can I get a refund?

Purchases are refundable within 14 days only if nothing has been generated yet. Once you generate anything (a preview, scene or video), the purchase is non-refundable, including any unused credits, and delivered videos are not refunded. Payment is a secure card checkout.
