Efficacy at Moshi Kids
The Moshi Kids app offers a positive way for kids to consume digital entertainment with games and stories that inspire fun, exploration, relaxation and sleep. We’re committed to creating safe and developmentally appropriate digital experiences for kids. All of our research has kids at the center of our focus.

Why Moshi Works
Research-backed content for kids.
Moshi Supports:

SELF-REGULATION: The sound of the stories, meditations, and music helps kids feel calm just by listening. The content teaches kids specific strategies for decreasing stress and anxiety and increasing prosocial skills.

ATTENTION: When kids are more regulated, the better they are able to focus and concentrate. With Moshi Play, kids practice their self-regulation skills and put their attention on building cognitive skills.

SLEEP: A good night’s sleep starts with a calm mind and body. Moshi lulls kids to sleep by helping them regulate and decrease negative thinking in order to fall asleep and stay asleep.
Mindfulness-Based Social & Emotional Learning

Moshi is a tool that helps teachers incorporate social and emotional learning (SEL) in the classroom. It encourages a systems-based approach to student achievement and growth, making it ideal for educators who want to make a real impact. Moshi is developmentally appropriate for children ages 4-8 and seamlessly integrates into the classroom routine, without requiring special training or external resources. With Moshi, teachers can ensure their students are receiving age-appropriate content that will help them grow and thrive.

Better Together:
The power of partnerships to increase student self-regulation strategies

Lori Northrup, a health instructor at Fremont Elementary K-2, reached out to Moshi for an app that could help students learn how to self-regulate, and found Moshi to be the ideal solution. In January 2023, Lori noticed that “Students are on their way to independently assessing their feelings and now (after using Moshi) are able to incorporate the strategies they are learning in their daily lives.”
