CaroLYN and CaroLINE not only share the two first syllables of their names but also a desire to create fun, imaginative gifts to entertain their nephews and nieces. Inspired by their favorite childhood books and a passion for bright colors, food, art, technology, and all things cute, they formed Lyn And Line.
The one thing Carolyn and Caroline don't share is their location. They live and work 5300 miles apart and have a nine hour time difference. They take advantage of this time difference by working around the clock creating story apps for kids. Lyn And Line's first product is The Rescue of Ginger.
Lyn And Line are thankful for all the support and help we got from our friends and family.
