What Makes LitSteps Different
Learn Through Connection
LitSteps uses books, printables, songs, and playful activities designed to help families learn together.
Children build confidence through:
• Shared reading and conversation
• Hands-on learning activities
• Playful skill-building experiences
• Gentle step-by-step guidance
Every resource is designed to work together across the Reading Path.
Gentle Step-by-Step Learning
LitSteps was created to help children build skills naturally over time - without pressure or overwhelm.
The Reading Path:
• Begins with foundational concepts
• Builds confidence gradually
• Encourages movement, play, and conversation
• Supports learning through stories and exploration
Little steps lead to meaningful progress.
Support for Families
You don’t need to become a literacy expert to help your child grow.
LitSteps provides:
• Simple guided activities
• Flexible, family-friendly learning
• Developmentally appropriate pacing
• Encouragement rooted in connection and confidence
Move through the Reading Path at your child’s pace.
Meet the Creator
Hi, I’m Helen Deasy, an educator, illustrator, and creator of LitSteps and the Piglits.
After nearly 20 years of teaching young children, I created LitSteps to combine stories, playful learning, and guided support for families.
I believe children grow best through connection, encouragement, and playful learning.
