When Your Mobile Devices Are Putting You on the Sidelines

Rocketoons Episode 11: Riding the Pine - Avoiding the Social Media Crab Pot is a look at what happens when our mobile devices absorb all of our attention. Too much social media and screen time can bring us down or keep us from participating in the things we really love to do. And we may not even realize it!

This engaging cartoon is designed to encourage thinking and discussions about what happens when you spend too much time on social media and cell phone apps.  This episode helps lead discussions about the difference between participating in life and posting on social media. Watch the trailer below and for full episodes visit Rocketoons.com - Rocketoons are always FREE for everyone. No memberships or subscriptions are required.
Have you ever tried something new? Of course you have! Everything you have ever done was brand new to you at some time, right? Maybe it went well, maybe it didn’t, but getting up off the bench and giving it a try is a great first step to take.

What about trying social media? Well, it can be a great way to connect with new friends and old friends, but it shouldn’t replace playing and learning. These are the things that Coach Hampton and her team are about to find out – and they would like you to join them!

Learning to Talk About Mental Health

Mental health issues can be hard for children to understand. We can’t always see if someone is mentally healthy or unhealthy, but understanding that mental health issues are very real health concerns can help us support loved ones who struggle with them. Understanding mental health issues can also give us the courage to speak up when we don’t feel as well as we could.

​This illuminating and humorous cartoon is designed to encourage thinking and discussions about how to support people with mental health challenges.  Rocketoons Episode 9: Marv or Myth - Talking About Mental Health can start Cartoonversations to help kids talk about how mental health issues are very real and what we can do to be good listeners and friends.
As our mythical creatures point out to us, they are very real – and so are mental health issues. We can’t see mental illness the way we see other illnesses, so we have to be on the lookout to make sure friends and family (and ourselves) get the right support to be mentally healthy.
