Accessibility

Zenimal exists to help children feel calm without a screen. That only matters if the people who need our products can actually reach them, so we treat accessibility as part of the product rather than an afterthought.

What we are working toward

We are working toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, Level AA, for zenimals.com. We are not fully there yet. We would rather say that plainly than claim otherwise.

What we are doing

We test zenimals.com against WCAG 2.1 Level AA using both automated tools and manual review, and we fix what we find. Work completed and underway includes:

  • Adding text descriptions to images so screen readers can describe them
  • Giving every link and control a clear, meaningful name
  • Correcting text and button color contrast
  • Reviewing keyboard navigation and focus order

This is ongoing work, and we will update this page as it progresses.

Our devices and app

The Zenimal itself is a screen free audio companion operated by physical buttons. It needs no screen, no app, and no reading to use, and a child can operate it independently. Zenimal Connect, the companion app, is used by parents and caregivers rather than children, and we are currently assessing it against Apple and Google accessibility guidance.

Founded on Purpose

Anna Peterson’s journey began in her earliest years. As a young child, she endured severe anxiety and night terrors until a clinical psychologist introduced her to simple meditation techniques that helped her regain control. Throughout those challenging times, her father was a steadfast source of comfort, a cherished presence whose remarkable legacy has deeply influenced her path.

When Anna became a mother, the echoes of her childhood struggles resurfaced, and she was determined to spare her daughter from similar challenges. Unable to find a screen-free tool to teach mindfulness and self-awareness, she created Zenimal, a portable device offering guided meditations designed to nurture relaxation, emotional balance, and focus in children.

Grounded in a philosophy of living fully in the present and bolstered by her commitment to make this accessible to as many people as possible, Anna continues to develop Zenimal from her base in Southern California alongside her two amazing kiddos. Her mission remains clear: to integrate presence into everyday life and help people of all ages discover lasting balance, resilience, and inner peace.
