OUR STORY

Learning through
human connection

We started Learning Tail because we believe the best education happens when children connect new knowledge to what they already know—and to the people and cultures that make our world vibrant.

1

Webs, not lists

Children's minds build connections like spiders spin webs. Each new thread strengthens the whole structure. We design our resources to create these connections naturally.

2

Four ways to learn

Every child has their stronger learning styles. We create resources for all four—visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and reading/writing—so every child can thrive.

3

People first

Culture isn't just facts about countries. It's about people, their stories, and how they live. Every resource we create centers on human connection.

FOUNDED WITH PURPOSE

The MelMae Foundation

Learning Tail is part of the MelMae Foundation's mission to bring learning and service together. Founded by parents who saw the gap between what schools teach and what children need to understand our interconnected world.

We travel to learn from communities worldwide. These experiences directly inform our materials—bringing authentic cultural perspectives to your home. Every membership supports both educational resources and community projects around the world.
