This content can come in different formats and cover a range of topics, but it should promote:\n\n-   ***Looking after yourself and others:*** This content promotes positive behavior, respect, and healthy habits. Examples include demonstrating kindness, good friendship, and self-care routines like brushing teeth and eating nutritious foods.\n-   ***Learning and inspiring curiosity:*** This content gets kids excited to explore, learn and think critically in fun and age appropriate ways. Learning includes school subjects and beyond (e.g. all kinds of hobbies, tutorials, fun facts and more). Thinking critically means helping kids to ask questions when learning about a topic and not just believing everything they hear or read.\n-   ***Creativity, play, and a sense of imagination:*** This content celebrates kids' imaginations and is designed to make kids think and engage with things in new, creative ways. Content might show creating an imaginary world, inventing and telling their own stories, mastering soccer skills, joining a sing-along, building an original game, or getting hands-on with arts and crafts.\n-   ***Life skills and experiences:*** This content includes life experiences (like the first day at school or going to the dentist) and positive role models. It helps kids build life skills like problem-solving and understanding their feelings. It often includes a complete narrative (like character development, plot, resolution) and clear takeaway or lesson.\n-   ***Shows them the world:*** This content shows a wide range of experiences, people, and places in the world which helps kids find stories relatable to their own lives.
