About

Built with a research grant from the U.S. Department of Education. Reading, phonics, and math in five languages — for ages 3 to 8. Shoonya Kids teaches early literacy and numeracy in English, Spanish, Hindi, Marathi, and Telugu. Children can easily switch languages in a single app, bringing true multilingual learning and accessibility to their fingertips. WHAT CHILDREN PRACTICE Phonics & Reading — letter sounds, blending, digraphs, rhyming, syllable segmenting, CVC words, and high-frequency sight words Writing & Tracing — letter and number formation aligned to Handwriting Without Tears, the standard used in schools Early Math — counting to 100, skip counting, addition, subtraction, geometry, patterns, and positional words Vocabulary — themed words drawn from food, clothing, instruments, and daily life across cultures Progress is self-paced and Montessori-inspired, allowing children to choose their own path. Teachers can customize and differentiate learning for students with a dedicated teacher portal. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Genuinely multilingual. Shoonya Kids is built with input from pedagogy experts and Dual Language Immersion educators to provide a genuine learning experience. Content is designed for each language and not run through a translator, so that children learn the language as it is intended to be taught. Research-backed.

Built for how children actually learn. Designed in alignment with UNICEF and LEGO Group's RITEC framework and NAEYC's Developmentally Appropriate Practice principles. Safe by design. COPPA- and FERPA-compliant, no ads, no third-party tracking.
