Little Sponges is an interactive, dual language curriculum for English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, and Russian. In every activity, there is a character speaking the non-English language and one speaking the English one. The program works both for English speakers wanting to learn an additional language and for non-English speakers wanting to learn English with first language supports. There are 15 units for each language with about 9 lessons in each with videos and activities. It costs $12.99 a month for parents with a thirty day free trial and a thousand a year for teachers. According to their press release, the CEO is currently giving the product free to teachers but this is nowhere on their website.
