Great for school psychologists and educators
ispsych
As a practicing school psychologist I use this with all of my elementary school students. During our sessions we focus on de-escalation techniques, mindful practices, cognitive distortions and realities, solution-oriented approaches, and conflict resolution. This app teaches ALL of that in a child-friendly and engaging format. I have recommended this app to many of my colleagues and recommend it to any educator or parent wishing to enhance the aforementioned skills.
Frozen

It keeps freezing and only play the audio, I had to delete and reinstall it every time. Needs updating, the concept is great, my 18month baby loves when the monster is upset and he has to rub his belly. Please update it.
Great concept

My four year old loves the app, but it does have some bugs. It will close spontaneously or freeze.
Was nice when it worked

This app keeps crashing just a few moments into each video now. it worked a month ago when I first got it but now my daughter wants to check it out again and looks like I'll just have to delete it
Wow! Great app for teaching self-calming & thinking of solutions.

I just finished doing all of the activities in the new "Breathe, Think, Do" app from Sesame Street. Fabulous app! I love that the app includes examples of self-directed solutions as well as seeking help from an adult. And that 3 ideas for solutions are shown for each situation (helping kids see that there can be multiple alternatives). It's really cool how the app depicts the monster calming down as he breathes and thinks. The "Parent" section of the app has fabulous tips too. Most of the kids on my caseload have Autism or closely related diagnoses and high levels of anxiety. This app will be great to use with them.

Constantly crashes on iOS 5

I have an original iPad iOS 5 for my 2 year old. Sadly as promising as this app seems we are not able to use it due to it constantly crashing.
Incredible!

Breathe, Think, Do with Sesame is an incredible interactive app on learning to self regulate by using the medium of the breath, then brainstorming a plan of action. I love how this teaches children that calming is within themselves and not through an external mean. There are 5 different situations familiar to kids in their everyday lives - dealing with frustration, fear, impatience, etc. Helping the monster come up with a plan of action, models making decisions or plans of actions. As a child becomes more involved in the decision making, they grow more confident and capable and willing to try alternatives to habitual patterns. There are 3 alternatives to explore in helping the little monster overcome his obstacle. Exploring each, demonstrates that there are no right or wrong answers to solving many problems...and that we may have to try a couple of things to help us calm down. Once a decision is made, you get to see the outcome play out, insuring further exploration of other choices. You are also reinforced by the narrator tellin you how helpful you've been. The hardest lesson for me as an adult has always been, that I do not have to follow habitual patterns, and that I can change on the spot. This is a valuable app for parents and clinicians, and one that should be reinforced as situations come up. Highly Highly Recommended.
