SKIDOS announced a strategic partnership with SmileyWorld to launch digital games designed to build emotional intelligence in children. Launched in December 2025 across iOS, Android, and web platforms, the games teach essential emotional skills, including empathy, gratitude, kindness, and resilience.
By blending SKIDOS’ learning technology with the iconic, positive visual language of SmileyWorld, we’ve created a vibrant new experience centered on creative expression. We are giving kids the opportunity to explore their artistic side and the tools to paint, color, and create without boundaries. It’s a place where learning meets pure imagination.
“This partnership is like adding a burst of sunshine to our quest for building resilient kids with rock-solid emotional roots,” said Aditya Prakash, Founder & CEO of SKIDOS. “SmileyWorld infuses that irresistible positive vibe, empowering children to spot, share, and celebrate their feelings while forging stronger bonds through playful discovery.”
