CREEPY PUPPET FRIENDS

November 2022​

They may look a little unconventional, but these little guys were designed to help children learn maths and English. With engagement and questions like “Can you count all the buttons?” or “Tell us the story of Pebble and where he comes from.”, the off-natured look to these characters is what makes them such great teachers. Research shows that children, and even some adults, create strong relationships with fictional characters and narratives.

Even something seemingly unimportant like helping a character achieve a mission has been shown to contribute to information retention and build empathy in developing children. Archie, Richie, Pebble, and Ike help kids all over the world learn, grow, and become better people.
