The Story (Maker) Game for the Yalp Memo Interactive play pillars is the first playful step from the playground into the living room towards social-emotional skills development for children, parents, and teachers. Aimed at children aged 3-6 on the Yalp Memo Interactive play pillars. It lets children create their own short stories and reflect and learn from these stories. These stories revolve around themes and situations close to children’s experiences and situations. The game can be played alone or with a family, in larger groups, and school classes.
Extensive research over five years (Staat van de Jeugd) by the City of Rotterdam has shown that we can help children grow resilient by focusing on protective factors.
The development of social-emotional skills ranks high as a protective factor in youth development. This a tremendous opportunity to contribute in a positive, preventive and accessible way to a promising future for our youth.
