Bamboo Learning app for iPhone and iPad

Bamboo Learning is an innovative app offering a delightful collection of books with thousands of voice-enabled, self-paced listening and reading comprehension activities for children in grades K through 5 on iPad and iPhone. Children embark on personalized learning adventures, listening to narrated fiction and nonfiction books and answering fun comprehension questions along the way. These comprehension activities are engaging, confidence-building, and help boost active listening, vocabulary, narrative, and other foundational language skills.


Your child will have a magical time with the well-known Highlights for Children characters, like Pepe Parrot and Spunky Monkey, and Tex, Indi, their sister Arizona, and their cat named Cow. They’ll discover how the Leopard got his spots, how volcanoes blow off steam, and why Davy Duck was feeling grumpy. They’ll learn fascinating facts about rescuing box turtles, Ellie Mannette creating the steel drum, a Hindu “nine nights” festival, Casper Mamutse making sandals from old tires to help children in Zimbabwe walk to school, and Bessie Coleman’s first flight. They’ll be mesmerized by folktales from Peru, China, India, and other cultures.


Bamboo Learning is perfect for learning at home. The app is intuitive and very easy to navigate; children can use it independently, without requiring assistance from parents or caregivers. Designed by experts in literacy and elementary education, the app reinforces academic knowledge and skills children are acquiring at school, thus bridging the classroom and home.


Parents or caregivers select fun animal avatars and a grade level while setting up the children’s profiles (up to 6 profiles per family). Bamboo Learning’s Panda welcomes children to the app and guides them through thousands of listening and reading comprehension activities. The Panda character offers praise and awards tokens for correct answers, gently nudges children to try again in case of incorrect answers, and suggests hints to help arrive at the correct answer. Engaging sound effects accompany praise, tokens, and hints. Children select books from a menu of grade-leveled titles; the app follows their progress and offers to resume the book where they left off or choose another book upon their return to the app.
