Why emotional intelligence belongs in your homeschool

Kids who can name and manage their emotions focus better, bounce back faster and get along better with others. A major review of more than 200 programs found that children who learned these skills gained 11 percentile points in academic achievement (Durlak et al., 2011). Freeing Freddie teaches them through stories children actually want to come back to.

The program has been independently reviewed and is listed in the Be You Programs Directory, rated for evidence and implementation.
