Boulder, Colo. – Disney (NYSE:  DIS) has acquired Kerpoof, a developer of children’s online entertainment content, for an undisclosed sum, TechCrunch reported.

Founded in 2006 Boulder, Colo.-based Kerpoof offers an image-based interface that lets kids make artwork, animated movies, and printed cards and t-shirts, tell stories, and vote on the creations of other users.

Most of the features on Kerpoof are free, but memberships are available that offer a virtual item marketplace, unlockable characters, additional songs and the ability to purchase movies.
