Playground Powers
Ellie loves playground games, but sometimes things don't go as planned. A friend might choose a different game, the rules might change or the game could change. When plans change, Ellie has to learn how to stay calm and what to do next.
Ellie the Elastic Elephant teaches flexible thinking, helping children cope when plans change, games shift, or things don't go their way. Through stories, videos and playful practice, Ellie helps children build the confidence to adapt to new situations and find another way forward.
Helping children practise flexible thinking through real everyday moments of play.
when your plan is stuck on something different.
when you're playing a game and someone changes the rules.
when a game is underway and then the game changes.
and the game needs to change to let them in.
when the equipment is in use or a friend is playing with someone else.
when the bell rings but the game isn't finished.
Playground Powers was created because many children struggle with social situations, but skills are rarely taught these skills in a clear and supportive way.
