What is Wiggle Giggle Learn?
Trying to figure out what we are? Many parents think we are a daycare center, mommy/baby class, parenting book or DVD learning program. However, we are none of the above - so what are we?
Our core
The Play2Learn weekly activity learning plans for children from birth to age four. Each week the learning plan is divided into seven equal parts, each representing one day's activity.
The activities are quick, fun and easy for both you and your child. The activities are balanced to offer a combination of simple, moderate and challenging activities to ensure the brain is being stretched for optimal sensory learning.
A child's work is play and working with their senses is the avenue to long-term retention of ideas and information. Repetition is key, therefore the learning plans purposefully repeat core competencies for you. The Play2Learn activities aim to develop the whole child by also balancing learning in the areas of language, mathematical thinking, scientific thinking, the arts, social and emotional development and problem solving/critical thinking.
Many parents only use our Play2Learn activity learning plans that grow with your child.
Our extras
The Play2Learn core activity learning plans can be used alone or with the following supplemental resources. Throughout the learning plans you will see reference to each of the following items but they are only optional resources.
nursery rhymes on letter size cards

How you receive our products
Our Play2Learn activity learning plans and optional resources are delivered to you on a CD. Our activity plans and resources all require Adobe Acrobat reader. You can download it for free.
How you use our system at home
Once you place the CD in your computer you will see a variety of folders clearly labeled for use. For example, if your child is 9 months old and you wanted to retrieve his learning plan for the week, you would click on the learning plans folder then open the "for a 9 month old" folder and finally open the "week one" pdf file. Choose to print (pdf files use very little ink) or save the week's learning plan on your desktop for easy retrieval. The next week you would follow the same pattern but choose "week two" for your 9 month old.
