Goal Setting with Deer: A Classroom Mascot Kit for Kids!

Tired of repeating the same reminders to focus, calm down, get started, or finish work? Let Deer and Friends turn executive functioning skills into playful classroom mascot routines kids can see, practice, and remember.

This WholeHearted Critter Crew™ Animal Costume Classroom Skills Kit gives you eight animal-themed classroom tools for teaching focus, self-control, flexibility, task initiation, working memory, persistence, readiness, and work habits in a fun, visual way.

Instead of just telling students to “stay focused” or “make a better choice,” each animal gives kids a concrete cue they can connect with. Flamingo helps students get steady and ready. Honey Bee helps them get started. Squirrel helps them remember the steps. Shark helps them stay focused. Turtle helps them stick with hard tasks. Chameleon helps them switch gears when plans change. Crocodile helps them stop before they snap. Peacock helps them check their work and let their good work shine.

Each of the 8 costumes comes with a Quick Teacher Guide, reveal rhymes, a Classroom Cue & Routine Board, leveled worksheets, and Google Slides access, so you can introduce each skill during morning meeting, whole-class lessons, small groups, counseling sessions, classroom routines, or behavior support.
