Newton, NJ – The Sussex County Library System (SCLS) is excited to announce that community members can now access the award-winning ABCmouse® curriculum both within its library buildings or wherever they are.

Or, community members can continue to access ABCmouse at any SCLS branch without creating an account utilizing library computers or Wi-Fi.

ABCmouse Early Learning Academy offers more than 10,000 learning activities in reading and language arts, math, science, social studies, art and music for children ages 2 to 8. These 10,000+ fun-filled learning activities—including more than 2,000 STEM and over 1,200 Spanish-language learning activities—consist of educational games, puzzles, art activities, poems, songs, music videos, science videos, and more. The 2,000+ book titles can be accessed by Age Level, Guided Reading Level, or Lexile Level.

"We're delighted to offer enhanced access to ABCmouse," Assistant Director Ellen Callanan remarked. "This resource expands our dedication to lifelong learning, enriching the educational journey of learners of all ages within our community."
