~STORYBOX TALES LEARNING PODS: WHERE READING IS FUNDAMENTAL!
~
Educator Allison Caplan brings her mobile, literacy-rich preschool program directly to local learning pods.
Storybox Tales is a hands-on, multisensory approach to education that fosters the development of early literacy skills. The program combines books, songs, puppets, and props to engage young children while encouraging a lifelong love of learning.
You create the learning pod – we deliver the magic!
As families continue to face the challenges of the global coronavirus pandemic, they must make choices about how to provide their children with a safe, stimulating, and supportive education experience. For many parents, home-schooling pods run by teachers or tutors have provided them with an alternative to in-school programs.
Storybox Tales offers parents of preschoolers a literacy-rich, highly interactive in-person program where their children can learn, have fun, and build social skills – without leaving the safety and comfort of their learning pods.
Storybox Tales Learning Pods are NOT just another virtual schooling option.
Our experienced, enthusiastic teachers bring the magic right to your pod! During each 3-hour session, children participate in a variety of interactive activities designed to help them practice language and listening skills, expand their imaginations, and spark their curiosity about the world around them.
The theme-based Storybox Tales curriculum includes the “Handwriting Without Tears” program, plus vocabulary building, phonological awareness, and letter and number recognition.

“In a year of uncertainties, we were 100% certain we made the right decision to work with Mrs. Caplan. The curriculum and environment she created for our POD was perfect, and the girls loved going to “school” every day. Mrs. Caplan’s connection with her students, and her patience and enthusiasm to make sure they progress, are traits every parent wants their child’s teacher to have.
