I'm interested in improving my baby's vocabulary...

We have Starlings!

Starlings are educational wearables that track the amount and variety of vocabulary babies and tots are exposed to. The Starling generates daily word count goals after analyzing the user’s initial data over three to four days. Once it gauges a daily average in a user’s household, the Starling adds to the daily word goal to encourage more caregiver-child interaction.

We have purchased ten Starling kits which can be borrowed for a standard three-week period. Click here to reserve your online.
