Each section provides opportunities for children to practice core skills while enjoying interactive games, lessons, and creative experiences.

- Daily Learning Quest
- My World
- My Classroom
- My Learning Path
- Activity Shortcuts: Library, Games, Art, Videos
Daily Learning Quests
The Daily Learning Quests section of ABCmouse is a great place for your child to start their day of learning. Each day, it offers 10 expertly selected activities designed to keep your child’s interest and challenge them to play and learn more. All subjects and activity types that are appropriate for their age and skill level will be presented. A star will light up for each completed activity, and your child will be rewarded with a fun dance party to celebrate their success.
My World
My World is located at the top right and is the second-largest section. This section offers unique and immersive feature zones that provide opportunities to apply and extend knowledge in creative, unstructured play contexts. Areas within My World include:
My Avatar
This Avatar builder lets kids see themselves as a major character in the world of learning, helps them feel more personally motivated and invested in learning, and adds yet another playful element to the program to keep kids engaged and coming back to learn.
Aquarium
The Aquarium invites your child to care for and interact with their virtual fish—a gentle, hands-on way to nurture empathy, observation skills, and a sense of responsibility. It's also a calming space for many children, supporting moments of focus and reflection. Kids automatically receive two fish in their inventory when they enter the Aquarium zone for the first time—no tickets required.
Hamster
This zone encourages problem-solving and spatial reasoning while your child is caring for and having fun with their pet hamster. Some kids focus more on the challenge and excitement of the building and others the rewarding feeling of being responsible and caring for a pet. When kids enter the Hamster zone for the first time, they receive a surprise pop-up that allows them to choose a hamster—no tickets required—and they can start playing right away! Children will need to complete activities to earn tickets if they want to unlock additional hamsters.
Pet Town
Pet Town is a popular new zone that goes above and beyond the original ABCmouse Pet Park with more dynamic and narrative options to enhance storytelling, creativity, and exploration. As your child earns more and more tickets by completing activities, there are lots of fun ways to use them here. (If your child has tickets in ABCmouse, you will see them in ABCmouse if you log in with the same credentials.) When children enter Pet Town for the first time, they receive a surprise pop-up that allows them to choose a pet—no tickets required—and they can start playing right away! Children will need to complete activities to earn tickets if they want to unlock additional pets.
Safari
The Safari zone is another exclusive feature in the new ABCmouse app that immerses your child in an African Safari that encourages exploration, caring and conservation, and life sciences.
Bot Beats
This lively, kid-favorite zone lets your child create music beats and choreograph a dancing robot, offering an engaging introduction to early coding through the lens of rhythm and creativity. Each Avatar begins with a preloaded Bot Beats inventory, including:
- 2 robots
- 6 head animations
- 2 arms
- 1 body beat
To unlock additional music beats and costumes, children need to complete activities and have enough tickets.
My Classroom
The Classroom area presents your child with a full range of learning opportunities, offering thousands of learning activities organized by subject and by activity type.
Classroom subject choices include:
- Reading & Writing
- Math
- Science
- Social Studies
- Art & Music
Educational activities by type include:
- Games

- Library (Books)
Special Bonus Classroom Activities:
- Major League Baseball: MLB has partnered with ABCmouse to provide exclusive baseball-themed learning activities. Kids can step up to the plate and learn their numbers, letters, and more.
My Learning Path
ABCmouse offers new and advanced Learning Paths in both Reading and Math, tailored to your child’s needs now and as they continue learning and growing. The original ABCmouse had one Learning Path that mixed all subjects. Our new program leverages the Learning Path to provide an expert-guided, sequential curriculum in the two most essential early learning subjects: reading and math. Giving each subject its own path allows students to focus on developing skills in one area at a time, and also allows parents to set different grade levels for each subject if their child is more proficient in one area than the other.
Click the Settings button in the upper-right, and use the drop-down menus to select a grade level for each subject. You will be reminded that if your child has already been using a Learning Path, changing the grade level will reset any completed activities.
Activity Shortcuts: Library, Games. Art. Videos
The four icons at the top of the home screen for Library, Games, Art, and Videos don't go to a new section or new activities, they simply provide a quick way to get to some of the more popular areas of the Classroom.
