MyVirtuals
Authentic developmental psychology simulations that bring key principles to life.
Foster deep understanding of developmental concepts
MyVirtualChild and MyVirtualLife prompt students to apply developmental principles as they raise a virtual child or live a virtual life.
These authentic simulations show how developmental concepts play out over the course of a person’s lifetime, from childhood through adolescence and adulthood.

MyVirtualChild
An immersive experience in raising a child from the prenatal period through age 18.
MyVirtualLife
Two simulations in one! An immersive experience that spans the entire lifespan. After a student parents a virtual child (by way of the included MyVirtualChild learning path), MyVirtualLife pivots to the first-person perspective of a virtual adult.
“I have been using MyVirtualChild and MyVirtualLife in my Human Growth and Development course for about eight years now. These simulations give my students a place where they can put into practice the theories and concepts we discuss in class. They are forever changed by their adventures in this virtual world. There is no assessment, no discussion, no interaction, in my opinion, that could replace the scope of the students' experiences in MyVirtualChild and MyVirtualLife.”
