Cognitive ToyBox is developing evidence-based digital interventions for language and math for children ages 18 months to five years of age. The core principle behind our platform is guiding children to learn-to-learn (L2L) — teaching high-level principles so children learn more efficiently outside of the app. L2L is a foundational principle of cognitive science and neuroscience, and there is compelling research demonstrating that teaching children L2L concepts, earlier than children discover them on their own, can accelerate early learning.
Through research with our academic partners, we study the impact of our apps on performance in standard language and math assessments. We are especially interested in understanding the impact of these scientific advances for children with developmental delays and children from linguistically poor environments, who acquire L2L principles later than their typically developing peers.
