WWF Together helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Flexibility: Trying something new. 

A great way for kids to practice flexibility is learning something about a previously unknown topic. WWF Together features several different animals ranging from Siberian tigers to Monarch butterflies, providing a great range of creatures to research. Once the user has chosen an animal, the activities and information provided are unique to that animal, providing for further opportunities to practice flexibility. Users can use their phones camera to explore a bison’s habitat, track and compare their speed to that of a jaguar, and cut down bamboo to learn facts about a panda’s eating habits. All of these activities allow for the user to try something new, thereby strengthening their flexibility skills. 

Focus: Getting started and then maintaining attention and effort to tasks. 

There are many different animal options on the WWF Together app, but learning about one animal at a time can allow for the user to practice focus. Even though there are several activities to try, if they revolve around the same animal, the user can maintain their attention on learning about one animal before moving on to the next. The activities and facts are short and high interest, allowing for users to practice their focusing skills in short bursts.
