The Jungle Buddies help build a connection with home even before the first school day.

The preschool box includes two weather-resistant posters in A1 format.

A SCHOOL GATE LABEL THENDGaaa

This quality label showcases that your school actively promotes social-emotional skills. Being a Jungle Buddies school is synonymous with a child-centered environment where every child matters.

The preschool box includes one school gate label.

A CONVENIENT BAG GBDVFYUVFUK

All the materials are delivered in a practical carry bag with a zipper.

The Jungle Buddies foster a connection with the home front throughout the entire program.

Skills are best developed in a broad context, which is why we focus on bridging the gap with home. Each theme includes at least one feedback moment for parents. They receive a (digital) backpack note and access to an activity they can do together with their child at home—everything ready to go!

The backpack notes are conveniently available on the online platform.

ON THE ONLINE PLATFORM YOU FIND

TRAINING - SIX COMPREHENSIVE WEBINARS WITH WORKBOOKS

To support the method, webinars have been developed. These webinars teach you the theory behind the method. Additionally, each webinar is accompanied by a concise workbook.

Each teacher can go through the materials individually, but they can also be used during a professional development day. With this approach, we aim to foster a Jungle Buddies climate throughout the entire school.

Would you like to independently explore the Jungle Buddies stories or display them on the big screen?

The picture stories are also available as audio stories! Through the online platform, children can access and enjoy the story on their own.

In addition, the illustrations can be displayed on a smart board for group interaction and storytelling.

ONLINE GAMES

The online games provide additional depth for the children. They can enjoy these activities independently or work together in groups!

MATERIAL FOR THE QUIET CORNER

Throughout the program, the lesson cards guide you in creating elements for a calm corner. Over time, children learn to recognize when they need a moment to themselves, helping to prevent conflicts.
