Welcome to the WorryWoos™ Developing Emotional Intelligence Programme

Описание: Find out more about how Dr. John Irvine and Educational Experience are helping Australian children build social emotional literacy and develop resilience through this amazing programme.

The facts:

Effective establishment of emotional regulation is a pre-cursor to the development of higher order academic constructs.

Emotional well being is now largely accepted as being fundamental to happiness, academic progress and future success in life.

21st century education is beginning to shifted its focus from “learning to know” and “learning to do” to higher order challenges of “learning to be”.

However, until now limited educator resources have been available to help teachers comprehensively address emotional education.

The Programme

The WorryWoos™ are a range of plush toys and supporting storybooks designed to help children to recognise, understand and manage their emotions.

The range has been developed by American illustrator Andi Green and includes 7 monsters, each with a different emotional challenge along with a WorryBug.

The WorryWoos™ monsters promote emotional wellness through play, reading and discussion.

Each WorryWoos™ story concludes with an uplifting message that provides the perfect opportunity for parents, educators and teachers to openly discuss topics that don't have easy answers.
