Does your child have worries, anxieties, tantrums? Imagine if an app could teach your child to voice their problems, express their feelings and decide on a plan of action. Ask Ed is designed to help children deal with real life problems from the smallest annoyance to a 'full blown catastrophe'. Ed, the Catastrophe Scale cat guides children through the Ask Ed process; asking questions, providing advice and giving encouragement. Ask Ed uses the Catastrophe Scale to help children put their problems into perspective. Problems may be rated from 0 (no problem) to 10 (worst ever). This helps children understand that some problems may not be as bad as first perceived and can be easily overcome (ratings 0 - 4), while more challenging problems (ratings 5 - 10) need different strategies and help from other people. Ask Ed is a great way for children to express their problems and share their feelings, empowering them to solve their own problems and feel good about themselves. Features of Ask Ed • Deals with ‘real life’ problems - from the smallest annoyance to a full blown catastrophe! • Helps children manage feelings of frustration, sadness and anger. • Provides messages of support and encouragement. • Produces an Ask Ed report detailing the child’s responses. • Report can be emailed and printed for future reference. • Includes a database of real life problems experienced by children. • Allows children to add their own problems and ideas. • Helps children develop real life problem solving skills and build resilience. • Can be used at home, school or out and about. • Works with individual children or groups of children. • Suitable for children from pre-school to secondary school.
