Storytelling is our superpower. Learning is our passion.
We’re storyteachers.
Today’s kids are exploring a world far more complex than the one we grew up in, and they’re facing challenges we never imagined.
What skills do they need to navigate this fundamentally changed world?
The ability to think creatively and critically, to adapt and solve problems, to understand and feel at home in communities far beyond their own, and to express their thoughts and feelings with clarity.
These are the new fundamentals, and they’re teachable skills. That’s where Encantos comes in.
We know kids learn best through stories. So we partner with a diverse group of storytellers to create culturally rich, curriculum-infused storyteaching experiences.
Storyteaching engages and inspires kids to think on their feet, to connect with others from backgrounds different than their own, and to be curious and creative.
With the Encantos storyteaching platform, kids learn the skills they need to flourish—and they learn to love learning along the way.
The Encantos app brings the storyverse to life and uses technology to help customize the experience so that our worlds grow as your children do.
But just as learning shouldn’t stop in the classroom, storyteaching doesn’t stop with our app.
By fusing physical and digital experiences, we expand our storyworlds to meet kids where they are, with the kinds of tools they love. Animated series, books, songs, apps, games, puzzles, and other products encourage kids to continue learning through play, curiosity, and engagement.
As a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC), each of our brands is tied to a family-focused social benefit cause to give back to a community. People want to work for, buy from, and invest in brands they believe in. We believe being a PBC is the most powerful way to build credibility, trust, and value with and for kids and families.

Parents need to know that Encantos - Play, Learn, Grow is a subscription-based app that aims to teach a range of early learning skills through storytelling. Content is presented through different storyworlds, each of which features a different set of characters, storytelling style, or underlying educational focus. Through videos and digital storybooks, kids engage with stories that touch on standard early learning fare such as numbers and the ABCs, but also less commonly found themes such as overcoming fear and anxiety, or global citizenship. There's no read-to-me feature for the storybooks, so kids will need someone to read aloud for them. The developers claim that presenting content from diverse voices is one of their foundational principles, and content showcases a variety of cultures and racial backgrounds. Much of the content is available in English and Spanish, or a mix of the two such as the Canticos collection. There are a few interactive games and a collection of songs, though the bulk of the content consists of videos and storybooks. The developers originally presented their content through an Encantos Learning Hub website, but have since migrated everything to this subscription-based app model. Check out a few of the stories for free, without creating an account. Read the developer's privacy policy for details on how your (or your kids') information is collected, used, and shared and any choices you may have in the matter, and note that privacy policies and terms of service frequently change.
