Publisher's Synopsis
Do you want your children to learn how to: cooperate, by taking turns and following instructions to stay safe; appreciate, rather than whining and complaining; try their hardest; respect others; and, speak-up before they blow up? Biggie the Bear CARES stories teach these success skills to 5 to 10 year-old children. They also teach how to calm emotional reactions, face fears and tame temper.
Young children often want "their way right away," and they may argue and blow-up when they don't get what they want immediately. Biggie the Bear CARES stories teach children better ways of getting what they want and getting along with others. They also teach how to become a Kid who CARES by: Cooperating, Appreciating, Respecting others, Encouraging efforts, and Stopping to think in order to Speak up appropriately. Video games and other media often teach disturbing lessons about achieving short-term success through conflict and conquest. Many of us wish our children and grandchildren could learn that lasting success comes through self-control and cooperation with others. Biggie the Bear stories teach these life lessons. Stories are an old way of teaching the young. They passed down wisdom from life experiences of previous generations to guide current and future generations. That wisdom is embedded in these Biggie the Bear CARES stories and can guide today's children.
