A leader in the field of early care and education, we bring to market innovative curriculums, cutting-edge assessments, teacher resource materials, and professional development opportunities to businesses and institutions, including schools, private child care providers, faith-based programs and government facilities. Kaplan has always been a family oriented business. From humble beginnings as a small toy store dedicated to providing unique toys and gifts that promote learning through play, the company has grown into the only full-service provider in the field of early care and education. It all started in 1951 when Leon and Renee Kaplan opened Tiny Town, a toy store in Greensboro, North Carolina. As Tiny Town grew, so did Leon's interest in educational books and toys. In 1968 he founded Kaplan Early Learning Company, affirming his commitment to providing toys that teach. Leon and Renee's son Hal joined the company in 1969 and he serves as the President and CEO today. With average employee tenure exceeding ten years, you'll always find warm and knowledgeable individuals ready to serve you from our state-of-the-art distribution center in Lewisville, NC.

  • Marcia Durazo of Our Little Kids Preschool in New Mexico wanted to “take the steps toward creating a better space for the children” in her care. That was why she leapt at the opportunity to win a $5,000 Kaplan classroom makeover sponsored by the New Mexico Child Care and Education Association. Dr. Sandra Duncan is spearheading the design of the renovated classroom and had these words of encouragement to the caregivers of the preschool: “we can do things step by step and make something wonderful”.
