Does your child have worries, anxieties, tantrums?

Imagine if an app could teach your child to voice their problems, express their feelings and decide on a plan of action.

Ask Ed is designed to help children deal with real life problems from the smallest annoyance to a 'full blown catastrophe'.

Ed, the Catastrophe Scale cat guides children through the Ask Ed process; asking questions, providing advice and giving encouragement.

Ask Ed uses the Catastrophe Scale to help children put their problems into perspective. Problems may be rated from 0 (no problem) to 10 (worst ever). This helps children understand that some problems may not be as bad as first perceived and can be easily overcome (ratings 0 - 4), while more challenging problems (ratings 5 - 10) need different strategies and help from other people.

Ask Ed is a great way for children to express their problems and share their feelings, empowering them to solve their own problems and feel good about themselves.
