Welcome to RootedSparks
Your child will face setbacks, challenges, and moments that test their confidence. The question isn't if they'll struggle—it's whether they'll have the skills to keep going when things get hard.
That's where RootedSparks comes in.
We're an interactive life skills curriculum designed for schools, homeschool communities, families, and youth organizations, serving kids ages 4–18..
We help young people build practical tools for resilience, responsibility, empathy, and real-world readiness through engaging stories and real-world application.
Our lessons are designed for learner variability—so neurodivergent and neurotypical kids can learn side by side, with meaningful options for how they engage and show what they know.
Great education happens when families, schools, and communities grow together. That’s our mission.

What Families Say
"Bellamy (7) loved working through the lesson on Grit Tools! The content was highly engaging and she enjoyed learning different strategies for building grit. A couple of days after completing the lesson she was trying something new that required a lot of courage- she took deep breaths and told me she's got this, she has grit! I was so proud of her for overcoming her fear and impressed how she so quickly implemented strategies she had learned in the lesson just days prior. We love RootedSparks!" - K.J.
What Families Say
"My 8-year-old started naming emotions and asking better questions. That's gold."
