ThriveLandia is an online resource filled with fun learning activities for kids and teens (ages 10-17) to help them thrive at school and at life; in other words to be resilient. It’s been adapted by Strong Minds Strong Kids, Psychology Canada from the well-known, Toronto Metropolitan University program, ThriveTMU, which helps post-secondary students develop abilities for thriving that will serve them throughout their lives.
Based on her research in the field of Positive Psychology, Dr. Diana Brecher’s Five Factor Model of Resilience comprises five fundamental aspects of thriving–mindfulness, gratitude, optimism, self-compassion, and perseverance–which are the core pillars of ThriveTMU and have been used to create the lands of ThriveLandia.
