00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:03.720
Can Slumberkins help kids
build social and

00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:04.740
emotional skills?

00:00:04.740 --> 00:00:06.090
[Theme song plays]

00:00:06.090 --> 00:00:08.115
[All shout]
"It's playtime!"

00:00:08.115 --> 00:00:10.140
"We love playing with you!"

00:00:10.140 --> 00:00:11.418
Most definitely.

00:00:11.418 --> 00:00:13.260
"You're our friend!"

00:00:13.260 --> 00:00:16.140
This colorful series from
the Jim Henson Company

00:00:16.140 --> 00:00:19.440
follows five animal friends
learning valuable lessons

00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:20.718
in their magical world.

00:00:20.718 --> 00:00:21.961
"Oh yeah!"
"Woo-hoo!"

00:00:21.961 --> 00:00:24.060
Talk about a great watch
for preschoolers!

00:00:24.060 --> 00:00:27.120
Not only are the puppet
characters all kind and

00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:29.640
generous towards one
another, they also show

00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:32.220
emotional intelligence
and take ownership for

00:00:32.220 --> 00:00:34.800
their thoughts, feelings,
and actions.

00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:37.440
"Is it okay that we're
feeling different things?"

00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:40.200
The show does an excellent
job highlighting the

00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.500
importance of self-esteem,
compassion, and empathy,

00:00:43.500 --> 00:00:46.500
and teaches little ones
social and emotional skills

00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:49.533
around problem-solving
and perseverance.

00:00:49.533 --> 00:00:51.006
[Character laughs]

00:00:51.006 --> 00:00:54.120
