Interactive Activities
Keep Children’s Attention!
Featuring a variety of interactive activities that are as fun as they are educational, this innovative program gently challenges children. It teaches them important social-emotional skills that will benefit them throughout their childhood, schooling and into adulthood.
So Easy to Use…
Sunshine Secret is child friendly, so once an adult logs in, even young children can easily navigate the program themselves.
As children travel through the story of Gloria the glowworm and Leon the Chameleon’s delightful world, they can complete support activities specifically designed to achieve positive emotional outcomes.
Among these are putting together virtual puzzles, coloring exercises with the Sunshine Secret story’s characters and learning emotion vocabulary words.
Hours of Learning and High Re-usability…
Children love practicing the easy-to-learn Heart Shine self-regulation tool. It teaches them how to replace negative emotions such anger or hurt with positive ones like understanding, compassion and hope. Heart Shine is a wonderful way for children to learn that relying on their natural uplifting qualities of the heart can guide them through any situation.
Other interactive activities include:
- Identifying and matching emotion faces of children to emotion faces of Leon and Gloria.
- Promoting positive attitudes and feelings with the Appreciation Board.
- Singing along with three wonderful songs to reinforce key program concepts and skills.
- Animated videos with fun, age-appropriate science content, including a frog’s life cycle, the sun and more.
