Sometimes it is hard to know what you are feeling and what is happening to you. Emotions overwhelm you and you don't know how to name what is happening to you. Don't worry. We'll help you understand what is happening to you, to learn about your emotions and to get to know yourself. It is very important to exercise emotional intelligence from a very early age, to acquire the skills that help us to know ourselves and to manage emotions and complicated situations. That is why we've created this app. A self-knowledge app; but, above all, an app to become aware of emotions and learn to identify and manage them. With simple explanations, mini-games and activities. An app that helps children manage and express their emotions, and that provides tools and activities to help us relax when certain emotions take over. All of this thanks to mindfulness: exercises and techniques to relax and calm down, to be well with oneself and prevent certain situations from overtaking us. An app that allows you to create your own avatar, become the protagonist and explain your own story. FEATURES: • Discover the main emotions. • Create your avatar. • Practice mindfulness and feel calm. • Tell your own story. • Express yourself through drawings, photos, voice... • Paint mandalas while you relax. • Free play, with no rules or stress. • No ads.
