Author's note

Simpson Normal, from Bay Animation Inc., is a free cartoon handwritten font with the loose, slightly lopsided bounce of a TV-era logo sketch. The letters feel soft and playful rather than neat, with rounded strokes, bulb-like dots, and a few exaggerated descenders that give the line a casual wobble.

It fits naturally in children's book covers, cartoon title cards, party invitations, scrapbook headings, and playful packaging where a free font can lean into character instead of polish. Use it for short headlines, names, or pull quotes when you want the lettering to feel drawn by hand, because that uneven rhythm is really the point.
