Description

It is finally time for Hadley the hedgehog to go back to school!

Even though Hadley knows things will be different this year, she feels ready. What she soon realizes, however, is that it will be harder to understand and communicate emotions while wearing facemasks. Masks will help us contain the virus, but they don't have to contain our emotions! "Hadley's Hidden Smile" seeks to help children recognize cues that will tell them how others are feeling and aide them in communicating their own feelings.

Join the Compassionate Critters as they embark on a journey of emotional understanding and come up with creative and compassionate ways to communicate feelings.
