As educators, we know that each child learns differently; as parents, we know each family is unique. Dilly’s Tree House is designed to be flexible, so you and your child can learn and play together in a style and schedule that works for you both.
Ready, Set, Go!
Box 1: Starring Dilly Gator
Meet Dilly Gator, leader of the InvestiGators. Dilly inspires kids to read, explore, and solve problems. She is sending a cuddly Gator Buddy to accompany your child on all the Dilly’s Tree House adventures.
Each month brings a new batch of surprises. The sample below shows and describes the products in the first box, Starring Dilly Gator. Each of the boxes in the 7-month program features one of the InvestiGator Club® characters. Skills and topics throughout the boxes are selected from the research-based Scope and Sequence of the InvestiGator Club® Prekindergarten Learning System.
What you’ll find in every box:
- Simple 10-15 minute activities for preschoolers and their families
- Curiosity, exploration, and intellectual discovery through play
- Award-winning and educator approved stories and characters
- STEM, culture, the arts, literacy, language, social-emotional skills
- Ideas for indoor and outdoor active play
What you won’t find:

- Junk and clutter destined for the recycle bin
- Lengthy “once-and-done” projects with one “right” outcome
- Heavy focus on addictive screen time
Box 2: Chuck Wood
Kids love Chuck Wood, “superhero of kindness”. Chuck is an inventor, and he shares lots of math skills and tips. Chuck is sending a powerful superhero cape to help your child discover his or her own superpowers. It’s a pretty big deal.
Box 3: Manny Salamander
Live from his apartment in City Square, Manny Salamander guides your child through fun activities that encourage sportsmanship and active play. Manny has placed a very cool world flag soccer ball into this box for your family to enjoy together. Goal!
