Frankie the Hippo - Happiness Toolkit

Frankie the hippo loves rock-climbing and having dance competitions with friends.  But sometimes Frankie gets visits from their sad monster “Gloob”.

Made in consultation with child psychologists and teachers, Frankie & Gloob helps kids know what Frankie does when Gloob shows up.

The perfect read for any child in your life with his or her own sad monster. Help give them the social-emotional learning tools they need, together with Frankie.

Frankie the stuffed animal has extra-long, weighted arms—perfect for giving hugs. A small, soft blanket is tucked in their back pocket so when Frankie and their child friend can’t be together, they can always feel Frankie’s comfort.

Frankie helps children understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, develop a growth mindset, while developing supportive relationships with one another.
