Creating Resources for Children’s Emotional Intelligence

In this rich conversation, Kylie Mort, an author, teacher,
and app creator from Victoria, Australia, shares her passion for helping
children navigate through their learning and emotional difficulties. Her book,
‘Little People, Big Emotions’, as well as her app, ‘How to Write with Kylie
Mort’, provide tools to help children express themselves, face their
‘monsters’, and hone their writing skills. Kylie and host Ed Watters delve into
education’s vital role in imparting emotional intelligence and fostering resilience
in young people. Kylie also shares her journey from using literature as an
escape from her traumatic childhood to creating a positive impact in the life
of young learners today.
