Thank You for 30 Years of Trust
To every educator, director, parent, and supporter who has chosen FunShine, now Lillio Learning, thank you. You've helped shape who we are today.
Over the years, we've evolved:
- We started with just 32 kits sold in our first month back in 1995 and today, we serve thousands of early childhood programs every month across the country.
- In 1995, we offered print curriculum only. By 2014, we expanded to digital access, giving educators powerful tools to plan, assess, and individualize learning, all in one place.
- What began as a set of foundational developmental activities has grown into the Lillio Early Learning and Developmental Continuum, launched in 2017 and aligned with all state standards by 2020, ensuring meaningful, research-backed learning experiences for every child.
But one thing has never changed: our commitment to making learning fun, meaningful, and accessible for every child.
Meet the Faces Behind 30 Years of Fun
None of this would be possible without the incredible team, some of whom have been with us since day one. These are the people who've poured their hearts into every activity, every page, and every moment of joy.
See Why Leaders Choose Us
At the heart of our success are the educators and leaders who use our curriculum every day. We're proud to partner with organizations like The PREP Schools, where Aspen Lilly, VP of Operations, shared how our program has made a real difference in their classrooms:
"The built-in prompts are so helpful, even less experienced teachers can easily adapt and lead activities with confidence."
The right balance of structure and flexibility is key and that's exactly what they found:
"What we love is that the lesson plans come nearly pre-filled, but still give teachers the freedom to make decisions and modify based on their classroom's specific needs. It eliminates the constant feeling of, ‘What am I going to do next?'"
