The Learning Path is a sequence of pre-set activities arranged for each Learning Level in ABCmouse. Playing on the Learning Path will provide a child with a variety of different games, coloring pages, videos, and activities that steadily build comprehension for their level. You can adjust a child’s Learning Level at any time from the Parents Page.
Here is a brief explanation of what you will see in each Step-by-Step Learning Path and Toddler Time level on ABCmouse.
- Toddler Time is designed for children ages 18–36 months who are not yet ready to learn on ABCmouse independently, but who will enjoy listening to songs, seeing and hearing simple read-along books, picture books, and animations, and doing simple puzzles, games, and coloring activities with adult help.
- Preschool, Level 1 is designed for children ages 2–3 who are beginning to learn about the alphabet and numbers. The games, puzzles, and art activities in Preschool are generally simpler than in higher levels.
- Preschool, Level 2 should follow Preschool, Level 1. The games, puzzles, and art activities are slightly more difficult than in Level 1, but still suitable for young children.
- Pre-K, Level 3 is intended for children who have completed Level 2 and for children ages 3–6 who are ready to learn the alphabet and numbers 1 to 10. If your child starts in level 3 and it seems too challenging, then move back to Level 1. If Level 3 seems too easy, move up to Level 5.
- Pre-K, Level 4 is the next step after Pre-K, Level 3. The games, puzzles, and art activities in Pre-K, Level 4 are more challenging than in Levels 1 and 2, but easier than in the Kindergarten Levels (5 and 6).
