Sparkler App
Support Your Child’s Development with the Sparkler App

The Connecticut Office of Early Childhood is offering free access to the Sparkler app for all families with children ages 0–5 living in Connecticut.
Sparkler is an easy-to-use, evidence-based mobile app—available in both English and Spanish—that helps families track and support their child’s healthy development through fun, engaging, and educational tools.
What Sparkler Offers Families:
- 📈 Developmental Screenings
Sparkler includes tools to monitor your child’s social-emotional, cognitive, communication, and physical development using trusted assessments like the Ages & Stages Questionnaires® (ASQ®).
- 🎨 Play-Based Learning Activities
Access a growing library of 1,500+ learning activities created by early childhood experts to support your child’s development through play.
- 💬 Personalized Tips & Messaging
Receive helpful messages and guidance tailored to your child’s developmental stage. If additional support is needed after a screening, Sparkler partners with 211 Child Development to connect families with the right resources.
By using Sparkler, you’re giving your child a strong start—right from your phone. When communities and schools share Sparkler, more Connecticut families can access vital tools that help children grow, learn, and thrive.
