Reading isn’t just letters. It’s processing.

You taught your child to decode, and the phonics worked. Decoding is one layer of reading. Research points to another underneath: the sound processing the brain uses to turn letters into words.

Poppins Learning works on the layer underneath.

ABOVE THE SURFACE: WHAT EVERYONE WORKS ON
The decoding layer: letters to sounds

The phonics, the tutor, the specialist. That work was never wrong. Keep everything that’s working.

BELOW THE SURFACE: RARELY TRAINED IN A CHILD’S WEEK
The processing layer: underneath decodingthe missing layer

Poppins Learning adds rhythm-based daily reading therapy for that processing layer, designed to work alongside phonics and your child’s reading specialist, and studied in two randomized clinical trials.

About twice the reading progress

Reading-fluency progress over 12 weeks (randomized trial, 306 children).

Poppins + every-other-week sessions
Weekly sessions alone

About twice the progress, on half the specialist sessions.

Both groups saw a reading specialist. Poppins Learning is designed to amplify, not replace, your child's reading specialist.

Twenty minutes a day. You keep teaching the rest.

Why rhythm helps reading

Rhythmic training strengthens the sound processing reading depends on: the hearing-and-timing skills a child uses to break words apart and put them back together.

Homeschool parents, in their own words

"Because they have difficulties, it's hard to get them to sit down and work. Here it's through play, so he doesn't feel like he's working. He's happy, and so are we."

"When the diagnosis came back, I was lost. The interactive games are just perfect: fun for him, and quick, so it's easy to fit into our day."

No. Poppins Learning runs alongside any curriculum, secular or faith-based, training the sound processing under the phonics you already teach.
A different layer, not another phonics app. Poppins Learning trains the sound processing under decoding, and it is studied in two randomized clinical trials, the first published in Scientific Reports, a Nature Portfolio journal, 2025.
Decoding can be taught. The sound-processing layer takes daily, rhythm-based practice, which the game delivers automatically, session after session.
About 20 minutes, child-led, with no prep and no grading for you.
About 20 focused training minutes that replace scattered drills, not entertainment on the screen budget. You choose where the block sits in the day, and it ends on its own.
A reading specialist runs about $125 per session. Poppins Learning adds the daily layer for $99 a month, or $449 for six months, cancelable in the App Store anytime.
