Why AR and VR?

Augmented Reality brings the books out into your world. Kids experience their favorite characters jumping right out of the books!
Virtual Reality lets the child dive into the world of their favorite books. Kids are immersed in the colorful and vibrant worlds of each story.

Gamified activities add interactive layers of educational exploration, resulting in deeper learning.
Numerous studies show the incredibly positive effects that animated and immersive tools have on a child’s understanding of materials.
