Better Kids’ social emotional learning app Wisdom: The World of Emotions is now part of the Apple Education Partnership Program

SAN FRANCISCO — Better Kids today announces that its social emotional learning app Wisdom: The World of Emotions is included in Apple’s Education Partnership Program.

“The persisting uncertainties and disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have exacerbated anxiety, especially for young children who typically thrive on routines”, said Ondine Bullot, the chief executive officer and founder of Better Kids. “Now more than ever, children need support with their emotional growth. Wisdom - Kingdom of Fear is designed to help children identify the signs of their anxiety and practice healthy coping strategies when they are faced with new, difficult, or unpleasant situations. Kids help the anxious citizens with superpowers, which are calming strategies such as replacing their unhelpful thoughts with encouraging ones, taking perspective, and practicing mindful breathing techniques with Augmented Reality.”

Wisdom - Kingdom of Fear is now available exclusively on iOS to families worldwide in the social emotional learning app Wisdom: The World of Emotions. A Live Event for the launch is scheduled at 4:30pm ET in the form of a Kids’ Workshop that will guide children through live storytelling of new Wisdom games and introduce coping skills for fear and anxiety.

Featured by Apple on its App Store, Better Kids’ subscription-based app Wisdom: The World of Emotions now includes:

  • 15 adaptive interactive digital games, focusing on themes such as facial expressions, voice intonations, body language, physiological reactions, conflict resolution, and emotional vocabulary

  • 3 Augmented Reality mindful breathing games where Wisdom, the main character, appears in your home or classroom and coaches children through different breathing techniques

  • 12 meditations

  • 20 COVID-19 parenting guides to support parents with challenges such as managing challenging behaviors, sleep routines, and sibling relationships
