About this app
*** This application requires a Footsteps2Brilliance®, Inc. membership, which you get through your school district.
Are you maximizing your children’s full potential? Neuroscientists confirm that reading has a massive impact on brain function and can dramatically improve understanding in nearly all school subjects. You and your child will delight with an entire library of beautifully written and illustrated eBooks and over 230 educational games to read and play together. You’ll laugh and learn as the stories come to life with animations and music. Written by master teachers and famous children’s book authors, the eBooks are based upon the most essential vocabulary words that a child in pre-K through 3rd grade needs in order to develop a powerful reading and writing vocabulary.
With our eBooks and games available in English and Spanish, Footsteps2Brilliance®, Inc. is the most flexible bilingual program around. With audio support, clear and simple instructions and checks for understanding, Footsteps2Brilliance®, Inc. is ideally suited to meet the needs of English Language Learning (ELL) students.
Your child will become a confident reader by improving reading comprehension skills. Innovative features include the following:
• Research-based academic words needed for school
• Auditory support and rhyming to help with reading fluency
• Three levels of game play for independent learning
• Bilingual edition features English/Spanish toggle switch on every page
• Stories come to life with interactive animations and music
• Reports for parents to track their children’s progress

"Thanks so very much for giving me access to your wonderful program! Now Lily, my 3-year old granddaughter, will have something productive and educational (and fun) to do with my iPad instead of taking pictures of herself by the millions and watching cartoons. And my search for a decent app for her is over!"
