Early Learning Library

Connecting Early Learning Programs, Children, and Families Through Reading

The Smart Kidz Club Early Learning Library is a family-centered digital reading solution designed for children from birth to five. Developed in collaboration with the University of Delaware, the initiative was created to support early language and literacy development while strengthening the connection between early learning programs and families.

The pilot phase demonstrated the potential of a mobile digital library to extend meaningful reading experiences beyond the classroom and into the home. The solution is now ready to scale across early learning centers, childcare programs, nonprofits, libraries, and community-based birth-to-five initiatives.

Supporting Early Literacy Through Family Engagement

The Early Learning Library connects educators, children, and families through human-narrated, illustrated children's books and literacy activities.

Educators can use the library to support classroom learning and encourage reading at home. Families can access books anytime and use shared reading and conversation to build language, vocabulary, comprehension, and positive reading habits.

Research-Informed. Family-Centered. Scalable.

The Early Learning Library reflects Smart Kidz Club's broader commitment to providing children with meaningful, developmentally appropriate digital reading experiences.

The solution combines:

• Human-narrated children's books
• Authentic reading experiences
• Language and literacy development
• Family engagement
• A safe, distraction-free environment
• Access across home and early learning settings

The collaboration with the University of Delaware helped inform the development and pilot of the solution, with a focus on equitable access to quality early literacy resources. If you are interested in deeper insights about the pilot or a larger research collaboration, please contact:
