UW-Madison's Center For Healthy Minds is providing its "Kindness Curriculum" to preschool teachers. Thousands of teachers have requested the curriculum, including Sesame Workshop. The researchers at the Center For Healthy Minds consulted on kindness episodes for the 47th season of "Sesame Street" premiering Sept. 18 on Wisconsin Public Television. We'll learn about how children who went through the curriculum have showed signs of improved academics, mental flexibility, attention, sharing, and delayed gratification.
