Schools / Deployment guide

One kit. Chromebooks first.

Puppet Pals, Puppet Pals 2, and Book Builder School Editions install the same way on Chromebooks and Android tablets. Switch to Apple School Manager for iPad.

For IT: Chromebooks & Android tablets

Shared managed Google Play steps.

These clicks are the same for Puppet Pals: School Edition, Puppet Pals 2: School Edition, and Book Builder School Edition. Chromebooks and Android tablets use different Google Admin paths — do not use one path for both.

  1. 01

    Order the site license

    Order at polishedplay.com/schools with your school name, a contact email, your Google organization ID, and the number of school buildings.

  2. 02

    We add your organization

    We add your school’s Google organization ID in Google Play within 1 business day and email you confirmation.

  3. 03

    Find it in managed Google Play

    The listing is private, so Puppet Pals: School Edition, Puppet Pals 2: School Edition, and Book Builder School Edition appear only inside your school’s managed Google Play once your organization is added. Search the School Edition listing — do not pick the free consumer app.

  4. 04

    Chromebooks (ChromeOS)

    In the Google Admin console, go to Devices → Chrome → Apps & extensions → Users & browsers → Add from Google Play. Set Installation policy to Allow install (not Force install). Google’s ChromeOS app install steps (opens in a new tab).

  5. 05

    Android tablets (EMM-managed)

    In the Google Admin console, go to Apps → Web and mobile apps to assign the app to managed Android devices, or use your device-management tool’s managed Play catalog. This path is for Android phones and tablets — not Chromebooks.

Where to find your organization ID — Google Workspace: sign in at admin.google.com → Account → Account settings → Profile → Customer ID (it looks like C03az79cb); MDM-managed Play: it’s in your managed Google Play settings.

Chromebook IT notes

  • 01

    Prefer Allow install over Force install

    Force-installing a large APK can delay first login. Set Installation policy to Allow install.

  • 02

    4 GB RAM / 32 GB storage

    Google recommends devices with at least 4 GB RAM and 32 GB storage for Android apps on ChromeOS.

  • 03

    Avoid ephemeral mode

    In ephemeral mode the APK re-downloads every sign-in.

Puppet Pals: School Edition

Chromebooks & Android tablets

Hi,

I’d like to request Puppet Pals: School Edition for the Chromebooks (and Android tablets) in my classroom.

This is the school app, not the free consumer version and not Creative Club. No student accounts, no AI, no in-app purchases. Student work stays on the device.

It’s $150.00 per school site through 30 June, unlimited devices. Each additional Android/Chromebook School Edition is half off — two apps $225.00, all three $300.00. Order at https://www.polishedplay.com/schools. The form needs our school name, a contact email, and our Google organization ID (Google Workspace: admin.google.com → Account → Account settings → Profile → Customer ID, looks like C03az79cb).

Please Allow install from managed Google Play rather than Force install. After the license is added, in Admin console go to Devices → Chrome → Apps & extensions → Users & browsers → Add from Google Play.

I need it for [class/grade]. Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!
