Earlybird - Playtime Parenting

“I love the days of the week. I love the colouring. It’s very fun and good. Gooby snoot.” - my three-year-old

I love this app! So many great ideas all in one place. I use it whenever we are in need of a change of pace in our day and I love tracking milestones right in the app as well.

EarlyBird is such an amazing tool (and support community) for parents and anyone who has littles in their life - including family, friends, caregivers, ECE’s and early years teachers. Our family has benefited most from the social/emotional learning activities and strategies but we use the whole app to help develop our sons communication and thinking skills (including literacy and numeracy) as well. Thank you for creating this tool - we can’t wait to see what else you have in store!!

Has given me so many ideas to keep my curious infant engaged.

If anyone else is a mom like me who finds toddler play excruciatingly boring and dreads having to think of ways to keep their child entertained that doesn’t include the iPad accompanied with mom shaming and guilt…. Then this is the app for you! 1. Open app 2. Enter age 3. Find cute activity with easy instructions and materials 4. Toddler leaves you alone for 5 precious minutes. The fact this app is built by an education professional too means that the activities are helping his social, emotional, and motor skills so that he’s better prepared for school and life is a bonus!

This app is amazing- loving that it tracks my kids ages and suggests age appropriate activities. Super easy to use. SO many fantastic activity ideas to keep my kids engaged and learning. Early bird gets us through so many bed time pushes, dinner time stresses, early morning rushes- just all the hard parts of our days are made easier by these resources 👌🙏

We have been an Earlybird family for years, and this app is everything we hoped it would be. The milestone tracker is amazing and takes such a load off when thinking about all the little things kiddos need to know as they grow.

I’ve used the Earlybird activities for some time but the added convenience of having everything in an app is amazing- you can print straight from the app! Toddler meltdown to new activity in 2 minutes flat! And the milestone tracker is so cool- it’s succinct and informative and tells you everything you need to know, AND also suggests activities to help your kiddos reach those milestones. Brilliant.

I love how everything is designed to make teaching your kids easier, not harder. Also love that it helps you work with what you’ve already got instead of bringing more toys into your home or relying on screens when you need to get something done.

I have been a long time Earlybird user, and have always loved their products, but this app is next level!! I love how the app keeps track of each kid’s age appropriate milestones and recommends activities based on the skills they are currently learning. This takes out the guess work and makes planning activities simple and actually possible for this busy mama! Thank you women so much for creating something so useful for parents everywhere!
