Early Learning Tools: Tyndal Stone Media

The 2Simple Early Learning Toolkit, distributed by Tyndal Stone Media, is specifically designed to match the developing skills of children in preschool through second grade. It was designed by educators and IT professionals to introduce computer learning and technology skills at the preschool level. The program features six tools designed for early learners, including painting, publishing and counting programs.

2Simple also comes with more than 50 example video lessons to create books, letters, pictures and more. Special options let teachers change fonts, pictures and colors; limit students’ abilities to open unrelated documents and printer capabilities; and tailor the tool kit to fit their lessons.
