Closing The Literacy Gap

In this eye-opening episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty sits down with Deb Mallin, the passionate founder of Mighty Doodle. What makes this platform unique? It's not just another educational app – it's a comprehensive learning experience designed to meet each child exactly where they are.
Mighty Doodle uses cutting-edge AI technology to create a personalized, engaging learning environment for first through fourth-grade students. The platform incorporates the science of reading with a whole-child approach, meaning kids aren't just memorizing – they're truly understanding and enjoying the learning process.
One of the most exciting features is the parent portal, which allows families to track progress, print flashcards, and actively participate in their child's educational journey. At just $149 for an entire year, it's an incredibly affordable option compared to traditional tutoring.
But Mighty Doodle isn't just about academic success – it's about building confidence. The platform's buy-one-give-one model ensures that for every subscription purchased, another is donated to an underserved family, helping to close the literacy gap.
Deb Mallin's mission goes beyond teaching reading. She's passionate about empowering children, recognizing their unique potential, and providing tools that make learning fun and accessible. With movement, gamification, and a multi-sensory approach, Mighty Doodle is changing the educational landscape.
For parents frustrated with traditional learning methods or concerned about their child's reading progress, Mighty Doodle offers a beacon of hope. It's proof that technology, when used thoughtfully, can be an incredible tool for learning and growth.
But the episode doesn't stop there! Jed also sits down with Lacey C Clark!, author of the vibrant children's book "I Am Phenomenal Everywhere". Lacey shares her incredible journey of living on five continents and her mission to inspire children to embrace their unique qualities. Her book follows a spunky young girl who discovers her phenomenal nature while traveling the world, encouraging children to celebrate what makes them special.
Lacey's message resonates deeply with parents looking to nurture their children's individuality. Drawing from her own experiences, she emphasizes the importance of parents being perceptive and supportive of their children's natural talents and curiosities. Whether it's performing, creating, or exploring, Lacey believes in pouring energy into a child's passions and helping them grow into their most authentic selves.
