Moxie for Kids

Moxie for Kids Children spend their days learning academic skills—but many moments that shape social-emotional development happen after the school day ends.

Moxie helps turn these moments into opportunities for growth. Follow along for insight on raising resilient kids.

Researchers followed children from kindergarten into adulthood and found that social-emotional skills measured at age five predicted a range of outcomes nearly two decades later—from education to employment to mental health.

It's a remarkable finding that highlights something important: Social-emotional development can't be separated from long-term success, happiness, and well-being. Rather, it's the very foundation for it.

For families, that foundation is built long before anyone is talking about college, careers, or adulthood—and it develops through relationships, repetition, and everyday experiences.

🔔 Social-emotional learning has largely been built into the school day—and schools have done important work in this area.

But research from the EASEL Lab at the Harvard Graduate School of Education points to something broader: Children’s emotional development is shaped significantly through their interactions with caregivers, especially in the early years. That work continues outside the classroom.

There’s a gap between what schools can provide and what children experience at home—especially in the hours after school ⚽

Moxie is being built for that space 🌟 Follow along as we share practical insights to help raise resilient kids—and send us a DM if you'd like your school to make Moxie available to families like yours! 🎒

🫶🏻 Decades of research from Harvard’s EASEL Lab point to the same conclusion: children build emotional skills through repeated interactions with the adults they trust most.

😵‍💫 That development takes shape over time—in moments of frustration, conflict, disappointment, and trying again after something doesn’t go as planned.

💪🏽 These everyday interactions may seem small, but they’re where children learn how to stay calm, recover, and move forward.

🧠 Moxie translates this research into short, parent-led activities that help families build emotional skills together at home.

📚 In a study published by the American Journal of Public Health, researchers followed children from kindergarten into early adulthood and found that the social and emotional skills they developed through ages 5–6 were linked to outcomes 13-19 years later—across school, work, and mental health.

The early years matter, and so much of that foundation is built at home, in the interactions children have with the adults around them.

A lot of what shows up later starts earlier 🚸

How kids handle frustration, recover, and interact with others doesn’t begin in one moment—it builds over time.

A lot of parenting happens in parallel.

Supporting a child through frustration while managing your own response, and holding the moment together while also trying to move the day forward.

It’s a skill set that doesn’t get talked about much—but it shows up everyday.

When does this feel hardest in your day?

Most of what shapes a child’s emotional development doesn’t happen in a single moment.

It builds over time, through the same situations showing up again and again: Frustration, conflict, and trying again after something didn’t quite work.

How parents and caregivers respond in those moments—what we model, how we guide—starts to add up. Over time, those patterns shape how a child learns to handle challenges, navigate relationships, and regulate their emotions.

What’s something you’ve seen your child get better at over time?

70% of parents say they could use more support for their child’s emotional well-being ❤️‍🩹

The opportunity to fill that gap is significant—and it shows up in regular, everyday moments; after school, during dinner, the bedtime routine, and in situations that require flexibility or don’t have clear answers 😵‍💫

❓ As a parent, where do you need the most support right now?
