I have made a child based CBT product called Animal Agentz for ADHD, and other kids issues

Hi
I like "Squidoo" web site but the adverts around my text are not in any way my recommendations or choice. Squidoo is a great way to find out about things.

My Background: Dr Mark Jones has self funded and developed a series of learning products
that help to reduce pain, fear and anxiety through CBT (cognitive
behavioural therapy). The child appears to play with cartoon characters
called Animal Agentz but each of these characters teach a unique CBT skill.

For example, if you tell a child to relax, the meaning is not understood.
After using the Animal Agentz product the child can use relaxation actions
which they have seen.

Animal Agentz provides a series of supporting medical animations, aimed
broadly at 4 to 11 year old children, to help them deal with a range of
issues and stressful situations through an interactive media format,
internet and also possibly DVD.

The reality is that these skills are not taught for many reasons in
hospitals and by medical doctors e.g. staff availability, time, skills
etc. The product resolves these issues and can also be used at home. This
is where the children themselves have asked to play with the Animal Agentz.

We have been approached by medical doctors (UK and USA) to use the product for medical issues such as asthma, ADHD, injections (immunisation), sickle cell
disease pain to palliative care (children with short life spans).
Non-medical applications include examination nerves and bullying etc. I
have received great support from the medical fraternity in the UK
(references available from Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital & Bath University & National Health Service).

The product is cost-effective and will save money for hospitals and
general practitioners by reducing medical staff time and reduce the length
of time spent in hospital. Parents like the product because they have a
role to play, and empowers their child. The product is made so it could
work in any language (English at present) and could be used as a way to
standardising many medical methods for children around the world.

The principles behind the way these coping skills; are
delivered in the product form the basis of a UK (granted) and international patent application.

Positive market research for the product was conducted at the London
Business School.

The product is free to hospices etc
We are on line (may 2008) but are oringal funding has now stopped.
