Starfall
At Starfall, children have fun while they learn.

Starfall is an educational platform for children in kindergarten through fifth grade, offering over 700 interactive games, books, movies, and songs focused on reading, phonics, and math. Founded in 2002 by Dr. Stephen Schutz, the platform uses multisensory, research-based activities aligned with state learning standards. It is designed to be especially effective for emergent readers, children with learning difficulties, and ELL students.
Children access interactive games, books, movies, and songs online, with multisensory activities that reinforce phonics, sight words, and math through exploration and positive reinforcement.
