Apple's Friends 7- 9 year olds
The programme reinforces skills learnt in Zippy’s Friends for 5-7 year olds but children do not need to have taken part in Zippy’s Friends to complete Apple’s Friends; it is an independent programme.
Apple’s Friends is based around a series of stories and the programme has 24 sessions of 45 minutes.
The six modules cover:
- Feelings
- Communication
- Friendship
- Conflict
- Change and Loss
- Moving forward
Children develop their own positive strategies to deal with problems through engaging activities: listening to stories, discussion, games, role-play and drawing. There are also Home Activities to reinforce learning at home with parents and carers.
