Asthma can feel overwhelming for kids and for pare Asthma can feel overwhelming for kids and for parents too. But learning how to live well asthma doesn’t have to be stressful. Our new space themed game, Mission Breathe, is a fun, interactive way for children ages 5-10 to learn about asthma, triggers, what to do in an emergency, and to build confidence in caring for their health. Through videos, games, quizzes and fun characters, kids will learn: 🔹What asthma is and how it affects their bodies 🔹How to spot and manage asthma triggers 🔹What to do in case of an emergency 🔹Why it’s important to speak up about how they feel and ask for help Developed with insights from both parents and children, you can work through it together or let them explore independently.

Around 12% of Canadian children, approximately 900 Around 12% of Canadian children, approximately 900,000, live with asthma, making it the most common chronic respiratory condition among kids. When asthma is well-managed, children can remain symptom-free and fully participate in school and physical activities. But when poorly controlled, asthma can lead to fatigue, frequent absences, and academic challenges. In fact, it’s one of the top causes of missed school days nationwide. Each year, more than 20,000 children in Canada are hospitalized due to asthma, with many admissions occurring in the fall. This underscores the urgent need for effective asthma management during back-to-school season, especially during the September Asthma Peak.
