In late 2023, Eric, a forward-thinking software developer, was excited to learn he was going to be a father. Inspired to create a stimulating learning environment for his future child, he envisioned integrating digital picture frames in the nursery to display evolving educational content. He shared this innovative idea with Tisha, a seasoned UX specialist and digital marketer. Together, they recognized the potential to turn Eric's personal project into a broader educational platform, and thus FrameBright was born.
Tisha and Eric co-founded FrameBright, with Tisha driving the expansion of the project into a holistic educational tool. She envisioned a platform that not only countered the negative impacts of excessive screen time but also enhanced learning through a blend of digital and traditional methods. Her leadership focused on developing FrameBright into a comprehensive solution that supported healthy, engaging, and balanced childhood development.
The team developed dynamic educational posters that could be displayed both digitally on smart screens or physically in print. To make these posters interactive and continually engaging, they integrated QR codes linking to a bespoke children's app. This app transformed passive content into an interactive learning adventure, ensuring the educational experience was active and engaging.
To enhance the depth and effectiveness of the educational content, Tisha and Eric engaged Megan, an experienced primary school teacher with a strong background in curriculum design.
Megan ensured that the learning activities were not only fun but also built on solid educational foundations, perfectly tailored to children’s developmental needs.
Ally, an energetic expert in early childhood education, joined as a major day-to-day partner, bringing the FrameBright experience to life for its young users. Ally is the heart behind the engaging and educational activities that define the child’s interaction with FrameBright. Whether through kid-facing videos, voice-overs, or interactive activities, when children engage with FrameBright, they are experiencing Ally's creative educational approach. She plays a vital role in crafting content that is not only educational but also incredibly fun and engaging, making her a beloved figure in the FrameBright community.
Tisha, as the face of FrameBright for parents, teachers, and investors, ensures that the platform remains aligned with its mission while expanding its reach and impact. Her strategic vision and interactions shape the educational and business trajectories of FrameBright.
As FrameBright gears up for its launch, it stands as a testament to innovative technology used thoughtfully to enhance educational experiences. With Tisha’s strategic leadership and Ally’s charismatic educational engagement, FrameBright is set to redefine how technology is used in children's education, offering a balanced, engaging, and enriching learning journey that nurtures the well-rounded development of every child.
