Helio is an award-winning light projector that emits educational and entertainment based imagery through a series of interchangeable discs. Children can learn a wide range of topics including sight words, states, animals, geography, and more – and they will have fun while doing it. Before bed is one of the best times for children to learn and retain information, and helio takes advantage of this with its soothing light projector system that makes learning fun and interactive. Named 2017 Product of the Year by Creative Child Magazine, helio uses discs that coincide with lesson plans for all grades and age groups.

Bred from success, helio was created to offer an alternative method for learning. In April of 2014, John Fyke wanted to come up with a way to help his son with his Kindergarten vocabulary. He replaced the stars and moons on his son’s existing light projector with his vocabulary words, illuminating them onto the ceiling before bed. Both he and his son’s teacher were amazed by the success. Fyke had created something that helped his son, and would hopefully help other children as well. Helio was born.

This brilliant spin on a beloved children’s toy offers five different base color options for boys and girls. Each unit comes with 5 unisex starter discs with over 200 additional discs to choose from and 40,000 discs with different learning curriculum currently in production.
