About TFT

Where one child’s story becomes every child’s possibility.

Toolkit for Thinking (TFT) Global is a non-profit initiative that seeks to empower pre-teen children through the medium of short compelling video stories. Designed for ages 4–12, TFT uses peer-to-peer storytelling to spark problem-solving, critical thinking, and basic human values in young minds.

We collect, curate and share inspirational real-life stories from children around the world that showcase problem-solving, spark critical thinking, and celebrate universal values. Uniquely, these stories are told by children, for children in their native languages, creating a powerful peer-to-peer learning experience. Our stories plant seeds of creativity, compassion, and resilience in young minds – and we make them freely accessible to every child, with a special focus on  reaching those who need it most. At its core, TFT is built on a simple idea: real children’s stories can inspire real change in any child, anywhere.
