Bringing Research-Backed, Inclusive Early Learning to Every Child
India’s early education landscape is at a turning point.
With the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 placing strong emphasis on foundational learning, holistic development, and inclusion, schools and families are actively seeking solutions that go beyond rote academics. At the same time, parents are more conscious than ever about how their children learn, especially in the early years when cognitive, emotional, and social foundations are formed.
It is in this context that Kokoro Kids officially launches in India.
Developed by Apolo Kids in Valencia, Kokoro Kids is a research-driven, play-based learning platform designed for children aged 3–8. Already used by families and educators across multiple regions globally, Kokoro now enters the Indian market with a clear mission: to help every child learn in a way that respects their individual pace, abilities, and emotional needs.
Why India? Why Now?
India’s policy direction makes early learning a national priority.
NEP 2020 and the NIPUN Bharat mission have shifted focus toward foundational literacy and numeracy, socio-emotional development, and inclusive classrooms. Schools are being encouraged to adopt learner-centric approaches, while parents are looking for credible, evidence-based tools that support development beyond textbooks.
At the same time, awareness of neurodiversity is growing. Classrooms today include children with different learning speeds, attention patterns, and sensory needs; yet most digital learning tools still follow a one-size-fits-all model.
Kokoro Kids was built specifically to address this gap.
What Makes Kokoro Kids Different
Kokoro Kids is not just another collection of educational games.
It is a complete early learning system built on three core pillars:
1. Learning backed by research
Kokoro’s design is informed by neuroscience and educational research, including EEG and eye-tracking studies that examine attention, engagement, and retention in young learners. The platform has also been recognised by the LEGO Foundation under its Play for All initiative, highlighting Kokoro’s commitment to inclusive, play-based learning.
For schools and parents alike, this research foundation provides something essential: confidence that screen time is being used meaningfully.
2. Inclusive by design — not by category
Kokoro Kids is created for all students, all on the same platform.
Accessibility features such as stimulus reduction, independent audio controls, multi-format instructions, and gentle time limits are available to every learner. This allows children with diverse sensory and cognitive profiles to participate together, making inclusion a natural part of everyday learning rather than a special intervention.
3. Adaptive learning that grows with the child
With over 200 adaptive games spanning six development areas like socio-emotional skills, language, cognition, logic & mathematics, sciences, and creativity, Kokoro adjusts difficulty in real time based on each child’s accuracy, speed, and engagement.
The result is a learning experience where children are neither overwhelmed nor bored. Progress feels natural, and confidence builds through play.
For schools, Kokoro also offers a dedicated teacher platform that enables educators to create personalised sessions in just a few clicks, manage classrooms, and track progress; all without increasing lesson preparation time.
Built for Schools, Families, and Inclusive Learning Centres
Kokoro Kids enters India with a clear, multi-segment strategy designed to meet the needs of different stakeholders in early education:
Schools
For progressive schools aligned with IB, IGCSE, CBSE, and NEP 2020 frameworks, Kokoro provides:
- A six-domain holistic curriculum
- Teacher-controlled personalisation
- Inclusive classroom support
- Research-validated learning experiences
These schools typically seek measurable outcomes, modern pedagogy, and tools that support mixed-ability classrooms; all areas where Kokoro adds value.
Parents
For families, Kokoro Kids offers:
- Clear progress dashboards
- Evidence-backed learning
- An emotionally safe environment
- Inclusive design without labels
Urban parents looking for premium, credible learning solutions appreciate Kokoro’s research foundation and visibility into their child’s development. Neurodivergent-aware families value the platform’s accessibility features and the fact that children are not required to fit into predefined categories.
Special Education & Inclusive Centres
For inclusive learning centres, Kokoro acts as a unified learning platform that supports diverse learners together, offering affordability, adaptability, and accessibility without positioning itself as a “special needs only” product.
