Jerry the Bear makes learning fun!

By taking care of Jerry's diabetes, children gain hands-on practice with counting carbs, monitoring Jerry's blood sugar, and dosing Jerry with insulin. Kids care for Jerry using the virtual diabetes tools and the digital pantry in our app!

Jerry’s virtual diabetes toolkit

Glucometer

Check Jerry's blood sugar by lancing Jerry's finger and adding a test strip to the glucometer!

When Jerry's blood sugar goes high or low, Jerry speaks symptoms, encouraging kids to recognize how they feel.

Insulin pen or pump

Use Jerry's insulin pen or pump to dose insulin. Learn about injection site rotation by using the injection sites on Jerry's arms, legs, belly, and butt.

CGM

Attach a CGM sensor to one of Jerry's patches and monitor Jerry's blood sugar in real-time as you play!

Watch as the CGM shows Jerry's blood sugar changing after feeding or dosing Jerry insulin.

Jerry's Kitchen

Feed Jerry a healthy diet or give him junk food! Either way, kids learn about the impact that carbs have on blood sugar, and learn carb counts for basic foods in Jerry's virtual kitchen.

Stories and Tasks

Follow along with Jerry's journey to train for the All Stars Games! All 21 interactive story books are paired with care tasks to reinforce important diabetes lessons. Our curriculum is co-designed with doctors, educators, and families to create educational content that kids love.
