Author, Karen Correll, of Rutland, Vermont graduated in 2021 from SNHU with her bachelor's degree in Communications with a concentration in Public Relations, following a 30+ year career in business operations. While taking a class in the summer of 2020, she was researching childhood anxiety. The findings and data impacted her deeply, pushing her to find a way to help children struggling with the stress of worries, fears, and anxiousness. She knew she needed to do something to help children learn to take back their control over big emotions, like anxiety. Shortly thereafter, Niko Discovers the 5 Senses Game was born, all while fulfilling a dream of one day becoming a children's book author. Through a story about a game, Correll found a way to impact families, using a reconstructed "game", teaching parents along with their children how to play. Her dream is that parents use the story to start conversations about big emotions and use the game in everyday life when anyone in the family is struggling. Correll is continuously building on the Niko story, offering ways to practice at home. Plans for the next book are in the works to help children with separation anxiety.
