READY! for Kindergarten: The leading school readiness program.

Developed by The Children's Reading Foundation, READY! for Kindergarten is a top-tier school readiness program designed for children aged 2-5, and older children needing to catch up on essential skills.

This interactive app uses engaging games to prepare your child for academic success. Each game focuses on a specific core skill, designed for repeated play—young children thrive on repetition in a supportive environment.

Tap the "i" icon (lower right of each game) for detailed information on the skill taught.

The app tracks your child's progress, providing reports showing their skill development compared to other US children of the same age. This allows you to focus on areas needing extra attention.

For 2-5 year-olds, games cover the alphabet song, letter recognition (shape and sound), vocabulary building, counting to 30, and emotional recognition.

READY! is built on 26 age-appropriate learning targets—measurable skills a typical 5-year-old should possess before kindergarten. These research-based targets were developed over seven years by early childhood experts, collaborating with families, scientists, and educators.

READY! for Kindergarten received a Top 100 Award from District Administration Magazine in 2013.
