The Pilot
Thank you for participating in our pilot! Each ToddleTale will take a child through their first day at preschool. It is a fun story, full of surprises, adventure, illustrations, and pictures from your preschool. After a child becomes familiar with the storybook, he/she will be able to identify real faces, places and patterns in the story. We hope that most incoming children will be able associate a fun, happy and predictable ToddleTale Adventure with your preschool!
Teachers
Please note that your custom ToddleTale book will only be available to teachers, parents and children enrolled at your preschool. We are tremendously excited to get this started and want to thank you in advance for your help!
In order to make getting started fast and easy, we created a simple online survey. To get started please click the button below and answer a few simple questions. Note that you can also do the short survey on a mobile smartphone or tablet (iPhone and Android/Droid phones work well).
Parents
When a final version of the book is agreed upon, it will be printed, and 10 -15 copies will be available at your child's preschool. It will be available to parents of children starting preschool. Parents of existing students who are having difficulty adjusting are also welcome to have a copy of your preschool's ToddleTale. So although this is intended for new students, the preschool is welcome to use the storybook as they see fit.
1. The book will contain a snippet only for parents. It will encourage parents to paste a picture of their child in the book and read the entire story to their child at least once per day prior to the child’s first day at preschool
2. ToddleTale recommends that parents get through the short story at least 14 times before a child’s first day. Ideally, the short story will be given to parents at least 10 days in advance of a child’s first day at preschool
3. Three short surveys will be sent to parents to gather feedback, about the ToddleTale and overall outcomes. Teacher and Parent feedback is crucial to our success. This pilot program is totally free to you because we need to gather feedback from parents and teachers in order to make this a successful product for kids, parents and teachers alike!
