While we build the story together, even for my "non-verbal" son who is expressing a few words, he was able to express the part that was more difficult for him about this new transition BECAUSE of how the book interaction interested him. "It gave me the information I needed to know what he was most anxious about and where I can reassure him more, it was a way for my son to be heard and express his feelings through the fun of storytelling. This helps children prepare visually for a new transition, and while children are resilient, these types of stories can help them to know what to expect, give them security and reassurance to be happy and thrive." - Maestra Ana "As a parent, my favorite thing about Wanderly is the ability to use the app as a tool to connect with my son. He is an amazing kid who struggles with big feelings and his reactions to them. The stories in Wanderly give us a way to talk about dealing with those feelings when things are calm and we are connected. When he is in a hard moment, we can use language he has chosen from Wanderly to help him. It's really such a beautiful thing to have another way to connect with my kid in a low pressure situation. "There are so many different things to get from Wanderly stories. You can simply have a silly adventure, learn something new about the world, create a thoughtful gift for a loved one, or tackle a behavioral issue in a fun way. It's truly one of my favorite bedtime activities and I love seeing what my kids will come up with." - Eliza, Mom of 2 Download today for social-emotional lessons your kids will actually want to practice!
