Why should you try our Learning Kits?

After 3 years of pandemic restrictions, multiple studies, and our own experience with the incoming classes in our preschools, we have seen that toddlers need more support in multiple areas, such as socializing, playing together and even language and fine motor skills. Little ones are not only very resilient but they catch up really quickly, it’s just a matter of giving them some extra support. We’ve included many of the activities, songs and lessons that we’ve seen work best in each of our learning kits. Can’t wait for you to try them!

Our kits help children find their personality. Who would they want to be. All children learn differently and play differently. That’s why we provide different videos with different teachers and our platform learns what children like or dislike to give each little one a personalized experience.

— Miss Shyla

At our schools, we love helping children increase their well-being and social/emotional development. I believe that positive psychology’s main pillars—to enhance positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishments, or PERMA fits well with this goal, which is why we’ve included many of my lessons in support of these subjects in the Learning Kit program.

— Mr. Skylar

Reading not only allows children to improve their vocabulary, but also to understand various emotions. Children learn to associate feelings with words and find a way to express themselves.
Reading together is a great way to improve a child’s development and to generate special moments that will last a lifetime. We’ve curated a list of books that build on the content of each learning kit but that are also fun, interesting and relevant. Most of them are favorites in our classrooms.
