With the advance of technology, rapid globalization, diversified and multifaceted stimulants, children and young people are commonly intelligent and quick-minded.

It is a common belief among educators and theorists that successful careers and happy lives depend less on intellectual and cognitive intelligence, but more on emotional intelligence.

This series of Little Mushroom: Emotional Intelligence for Children aims at fostering emotional intelligence among younger generations, helping them to be more competent in knowing and managing emotions, motivating them to try their best, recognizing emotions in others and having better interpersonal relationships.

It is believed that emotional competence can be learned, acquired, practised and internalized. It can become a habit and a way of life, which can enrich personal experience and life quality. Most important of all, when these skills are widely practised, it can lead to a more harmonious and better world to live in.

These Little Mushroom Series contain emotional intelligence instruments that can be self-read, shared among parents and children and used in an educational context.
