Peekapak
For a free and online, story-led curriculum about basic socio-emotional topics, we recommend Peekapak. Peekapak uses digital stories to introduce basic socio-emotional concepts like kindness, gratitude and respect. It was developed in conjunction with early childhood development experts, teachers, parents and children. Parents love that the stories are easy to understand and relate to. Some parents find it hard to navigate the free options from the much broader array of paid access options. A paid subscription is also available for $96/year.
Grades: PK - 8th
Cost: The basic version for parents is free!
