Popplers: Daily Routines & Emotions and Feelings

Ms. Brandi’s Popplers uses a multisensory, game-based approach to teach toddlers fine motor skills, pattern recognition, matching, and first words. Through interactive videos and tactile learning, 98% of the 30 toddlers tested learned all their animal and food words within one month of playing!

Multisensory activities are based on whole-brain learning, encouraging learners to use more than one of their senses when taking in new information. When using more senses while learning to read educational researchers have found this increases word recognition and improves memory by 90%.

Absolutely! Ms. Brandi’s videos are like having a playful teacher right at home. Toddlers can watch, listen, and pop their way through farm animals and food themes, all guided by Ms. Brandi’s friendly voice. It’s not just screen time—it’s interactive learning, where kids get to be part of the story!

They’re toddler gold! You’ve got “The Matching Game” (match the animals or foods), “What Sound Do I Make?” (guess the animal sound), “What Comes Next?” (sequences and sorting), and “Spot the Color!” (identify colors). With each pop and guess, little ones are developing memory and problem-solving skills, and they think they’re just having a blast!

Hands-on games are more effective than screen time because they engage multiple senses, promote active learning, and support cognitive and motor skill development. Research shows that young children learn best through physical interaction and play, which helps build neural connections in the brain. Studies also indicate that screen-based learning can lead to shorter attention spans and less retention of information. By using hands-on activities, children develop problem-solving skills, improve hand-eye coordination, and gain a deeper understanding of concepts—making it a more impactful learning experience overall.
