BTA2023 AWARD-WINNING PRODUCTS ANNOUNCED!

[Updated] A compilation of educational learning sites, videos, and apps for toddlers that are useful at home when school is closed due to coronavirus, etc.

As a countermeasure against the spread of coronavirus, elementary, junior high and high schools have been asked to close their schools. At the time of writing (17:30, February 28), kindergartens, nursery schools, and children's daycare centers have not been requested to close, but some schools have been closed.

It's been an unexpectedly long holiday, but with it being difficult to get out and about, we've put together a list of services and apps to help toddlers play and learn at home.

Please let us know your recommendations (self-recommendation or other recommendation is not required). We will update this page as often as possible.
