    "Turn everyday moments into brain-building moments! New science has shown that our children's brains develop the most during the ages of 0-5. Daily Vroom is an app created to make the most of these precious years when the foundation for all future learning is happening. It offers parents ways to help make connections in their child's growing brain. And it's all rooted in new science. Every day, the app serves up a "Vroom" (a simple brain-building activity) into the palm of your hand, providing you with a daily dose of inspiration. It enhances the things you already do and helps spark new ideas"

    "New science tells us that our children's first years are when they develop the foundation for all future learning. Every time we connect with them, it's not just their eyes that light up - it's their brains. In these moments, half a million neurons fire at once, taking in all the things we say and do. We can't see it happening, but it's all there, all at work. That's why Vroom is here. Vroom turns shared moments into brain-building moments. Whether it's mealtime, bath time, or anytime in between, there are always ways to nurture our children's growing minds."
