What is Drool?

  • Learning to live BIG
  • Learning Life Lessons (through the experience of four AMAZING Great Danes)
  • Living more curiously
  • Creating Change and Getting UNSTUCK

Life is meant to be DROOLED over. Our interactive lessons bring SEL to life by combining storytelling, reflection, and practice aligned with ELA standards in speaking and listing. Each story introduces real-world situations that encourage children to explore their emotions, understand their strengths, and make thoughtful choices. Students don’t just read about characters making good decisions — they learn to apply those same principles in their own daily lives.
