Born Learning began in 2005 as United Way’s first national public engagement campaign. It made public service advertising, parent materials, and online tips, tools, and templates available to help United Ways advance early childhood impact strategies.
One of the things that make Born Learning so unique is the rich, research-based content that is consistently delivered across all of its products. Its playful design and bold colors visually link the entire collection, including the cognitively stimulating Born Learning Trail.
The Trail is a series of 10 interactive signs that offer fun, active learning activities for young children and their families. It helps parents, caregivers and communities create quality engagement opportunities when out on a stroll or visiting a local playground.
