What age group is the CBeebies Little Learners app for?

The CBeebies Little Learners app focuses on the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum and the core audience for the app is 2-to-4-year-olds ahead of starting school. We understand that children develop at different times and enjoy different activities, so it is a great app for children older than this age range too.

Here at CBeebies, we understand that trying to find the right app for your toddler or child can be confusing. That’s why it was important for the CBeebies Little Learners app to be rooted in learning and developed in collaboration with educational experts, as well as being totally safe for children, with no in-app purchases. This provides families and educators with guilt-free screen time where they can be confident that their child is learning and having fun at the same time.
