Meet Deer, Horse, Zebra, Giraffe, and Alpaca, the classroom mascots ready to make social skills visual, playful, and memorable for kids! The WholeHearted Critter Crew™ Deer & Friends Social Skills Kit gives teachers, school counselors, and parents a fun way to teach and reinforce the everyday skills children use to build friendships, get along with others, solve problems, communicate well, and make wise choices with their words and actions.
Instead of simply telling kids to “be kind,” “listen,” or “work it out,” this kit turns important social skills into memorable WholeHearted Critter Crew™ classroom mascot characters kids can actually see and remember. Just dress up your class mascot as the Knight of the Golden Rule, Encouraging Electrician, Complimenting Mail Carrier, Forgiving Firefighter, Listening Librarian, Trash Talk Collector, Peaceful Problem-Solving Referee, Be a Light Firefly, or Manner Magician and you’ve got a fun, visual way to teach and reinforce social skills throughout the day.
And the fun starts with the costume reveal! Use the Confidential File Labels, Costume Reveal Curtain, and Costume Reveal Balloons to introduce a new social-skills costume with a little mystery and class buy-in. Each costume also includes a Quick Teacher Guide, a Guess Who I Am Costume Reveal Poem, a Classroom System Reveal Poem, and What Would ___ Do? discussion prompts that help kids take the lesson beyond the costume and apply it to everyday situations.
