As Coronavirus changes working, caring, and education patterns across the country, we are increasingly aware of the added strain that families, schools, and childcare centres are under.
As a home learning platform, EasyPeasy is on hand to support parents and early years educators during this unique time in a number of ways, from helping to alleviate pressure on parents, to keeping teachers and families connected digitally during potentially prolonged school closures.
From now, until 31st May 2020, we’re making EasyPeasy completely free so you can share EasyPeasy with parents and families in your community and reduce interruption and learning delays during any prolonged closures.
What does our FREE offer include?
Practitioners can sign up for a free EasyPeasy account, and you can invite your nursery and reception provider to receive unlimited access to our evidence-based game content. All of our activities are easily played at home, don’t require any expensive props and provide the necessary EYFS alignment to ensure little ones are having fun while continuing to develop key skills.
Practitioners will be able to use their admin dashboards to connect with parents via the comment functionality. Sharing encouragement and keeping in touch with parents at this time can be really reassuring and positive.
This offer starts now, until 31st May. Once the free period has come to a close, practitioners can continue to support their parents at the usual price of £9.99 per parent, for a year's access.
