The best digital learning tools – games, apps, e-books, and podcasts – have the power to help kids learn and grow. 

• They can encourage connections between home and school, between friends and family members, and between the digital world and real-life experiences.
• They can meet kids where they are, by engaging their interests.
• They can address the different ways that kids learn, and adapt to meet their needs.

Groups such as the Responsible Innovation in Technology for Children (RITEC) project, from LEGO Foundation and UNICEF, inform how digital experiences can improve a child’s well-being. 

These frameworks are written for designers, but they highlight the qualities that families can look for when choosing apps and games.
