raise happy kids,
ready for the world

Growing up in this fast-paced world is challenging, and not just for kids!  

Raising happy, resilient children is every parent’s goal - but how?  The Sociemo book club supports parents to support kids, as they grow into their brightest & best selves.

 

 What is Sociemo?

Sociemo is a breakthrough book club concept that helps parents raise rounded, resilient kids using the proven power of stories.

Discover ways to make your child happier and more confident, with strong friendships and a positive mindset, simply by reading and talking together.  We supply the best books and expertise, so all you need is a little bit of time each week to enhance your child’s wellbeing for life!

we focus on 5 key lifeskills:

Help your child to name their emotions, identify emotional triggers and understand how feelings are linked to behaviour.

1 Understanding Emotions

Help kids understand their bodies and brains. Use fictional stories to explore real-life situations, building a positive mindset and emotional resilience.

2 Managing yourself

Develop your child’s sense of empathy, ability to read people and situations, and to keep an open mind.

3 Understanding others

Help your child to build strong and supportive relationships at home and in life.

4 Building Relationships

5 Making good decisions

Use stories as a way to ‘test’ different options and choices, so that kids can learn to make better decisions for their own good and the good of others.

Sociemo - Big Feelings, Small People
 

Just because you’re small doesn’t mean you don’t have big feelings and just because you’re a grown up doesn’t mean you always know how to approach difficult subjects with your kids

Sociemo helps parents connect with their kids through beautiful books and powerful conversations
