Torrington Public Schools, in conjunction with Connecticut's Bureau of Special Education, is excited to announce a new partnership with Sparkler! Sparkler is a free app that is available on the Apple and Google Play stores. Sparkler is available in both English and Spanish. It is a program designed to promote healthy early childhood development for children ages 0-5. The program offers family resources to monitor children's social- emotional, cognitive, communication, and physical development, as well as suggested play based learning activities. We encourage you to explore all the Sparkler app has to offer!
You can download Sparkler from the Google Play Store if you have an Android phone or tablet or from the Apple App Store if you use an iPhone or iPad.
To register: open the app and tap "Create a New Account." Enter the Sparkler Access Code CT on the first step of registration to access developmental screening and to access Connecticut- specific resources and support. Answer the questions to create an account for yourself and a profile for your child. You must enter your child's birthday correctly because Sparkler assigns screenings and other content based on your child's age.
