Perseverance is one of the most important skills kids can learn. It’s the belief that “I can keep trying, even when it’s hard.”

🌱 Every mistake is a chance to grow.
💪 Every setback builds strength.

✨ Every try brings us closer to success.
Through fun stories and activities, Stella & Ollie remind kids that falling down doesn’t mean stopping, it means getting up and trying again.

👉 Swipe through today’s carousel to explore how perseverance helps children (and grown-ups!) reach their goals.

✨ Vowel Power! ✨
Stella & Ollie are here to teach the difference between short vowels (ă, ĕ, ĭ, ŏ, ŭ) and long vowels (ā, ē, ī, ō, ū). 🗣️💡

👉 Short vowels make sounds that are different from their names.
👉 Long vowels say their names loud and proud!

📖 Practice with us:
🐱 Cat vs. 🍰 Cake
🐷 Pig vs. 🚲 Bike
☀️ Sun vs. 🎲 Cube

🎥 Watch the full reel to learn & repeat along, your child will become a vowel superstar! 🌟

Hey parents and caregivers! 🌟 Did you know that educational coloring and activity books are more than just fun, they’re a powerful way to boost your child’s early literacy and motor skills✍️

This summer, keeping kids engaged with screen free activities is super important especially as we’re heading into back-to-school season.📚Coloring and tracing letters not only make learning interactive but also support the fine motor development needed for writing. Plus, these activities help build focus and hand-eye coordination while sparking creativity. 🖍️🎨

Try incorporating some daily coloring or letter tracing time into your summer routine! It’s a fantastic way to prepare your little ones for a smooth transition back to school and keep the learning vibe alive all summer long. 🌞✨

Fun fact: When kids engage in repetitive letter tracing, they develop muscle memory that helps form letters more confidently when they start writing on their own. So next time you see those crayons and pencils, remember they’re tools for building future reading and writing skills! 📝😊

What’s your favorite coloring activity that’s helped your child learn? Share with us below! 👇
