“This has been an extremely challenging year for parents as they were thrust into the role of teaching and grappling with how to ensure their kids aren’t missing out on critical developmental skills. Nearly 60% of parents polled said they were equally terrified and motivated to know that the early years matter most, admitting it’s also hard to discern what’s effective in a sea of mostly edu-tainment options,” said Stephanie Dua, co-founder and president of HOMER. “HOMER aims to alleviate some of this stress by supporting families with a comprehensive expert-designed program focused on both essential school and life skills.”

HOMER’s essential early learning program offers families a unique combination of school-grade efficacy and entertainment-like engagement to give kids the best start to their learning journey.

Key features include:

  • Comprehensive Early Learning Program: Playful learning activities across subject areas including reading, math, social-emotional learning, creativity and thinking skills.
  • Personalized Learning Journey: Interactive lessons, stories and activities are personalized by age, stage and interests, growing with your child and building confidence through new skills kids are proud of and parents can see. HOMER Learn & Grow also features hundreds of stories and characters your child will love from classics like Little Red Riding Hood to favorites like Thomas the Train™.
  • Proven Effectiveness: Expert-designed, kid-tested and parent-approved, HOMER’s reading pathway is proven to increase early reading score by 74% with just 15 minutes a day.
  • Flexible + Fun: HOMER’s kid-friendly navigation is perfect for independent play, giving parents precious moments to themselves while trusting their children are both learning and having fun. Because it works both online and offline, HOMER Learn & Grow easily fits into any and every daily routine.
  • Beyond the App: HOMER offers families multiple ways to bring learning into everyday life including live virtual small-group classes built in partnership with Gymboree Play & Music as well as tips for parents, printables and hands-on activities in the regularly updated HOMER Activity Center, HOMER blog and ongoing Ask the Expert series on Facebook Live.

HOMER Learn & Grow replaces the popular HOMER Reading and HOMER Stories apps with a completely redesigned learning program with expanded curriculum and new content. Existing HOMER members will benefit from new kid-friendly navigation for independent play and will be able to pick up on a child’s reading pathway right where they left off.
