ABCya.com, L.L.C. (also stylized as ABCya!) is an American website that provides educational games and activities for school-aged children. The games on the website are organized into grade levels from pre-kindergarten to Sixth grade, as well as into subject categories such as letters, numbers, and holidays.

ABCya.com was founded in 1996 by Alan Tortolani.[2] A public school teacher, Tortolani created his own activities for his students. Later, he decided to register a domain under ABCya.com. Tortolani chose this particular domain name “ABCya” to make it accessible to children and easy to type into a web browser.[3]
In April 2020, Lisa Tortolani took over as Chief Executive Officer.[4]
The company was acquired by IXL Learning in 2021.[5]
