Your purchase may qualify for state homeschool funding. Here's what you need to know.
Developed with research support from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF), and co-designed with the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop — one of the world's leading early literacy research institutions.
Unlike screens that compete with reading, or audio products that replace it, Cali's Books pairs physical books with audio — at every stage from 0 to 6+. One product family that grows with your child.
Built for children to use on their own, making them ideal for homeschool environments where parents need self-directed learning tools that cover language, literacy, music, and cognitive development.
Many US states now let families use public education funds for homeschool resources — including books, audio tools, and educational supplies. These programs are called Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) or school choice grants. If your state offers one, Cali's Books products may qualify as an eligible purchase or reimbursement.
What counts as an eligible purchase? Most state ESA programs allow spending on educational books, curriculum materials, audio learning tools, and supplementary resources. Exact categories vary by state and program.
Sound books introduce story, music, and language through audio. Likely to qualify as educational books or audio learning tools under most ESA programs.
The next stage of the reading journey. Infinibook builds reading comprehension, vocabulary, and early math independently. Likely to qualify as educational curriculum or supplementary learning tools under most ESA programs.
Eligibility varies by state and program. Always confirm with your ESA provider before purchasing.
