kids on the block excerpts
The following are excerpts from two of our many programs; please see the list below to find out what programs are available in your region.
"What's the Problem?"
Brenda and Melody have purchased a video together and are about to watch it when an argument breaks out over who actually owns the video. Hearing the argument, Melody's older brother Shaun helps guide Melody through the problem solving process.
"You're Not the Boss of Me!"
Eddy is being harassed by a school bully and is unsure how to resolve the situation. When his friend Clare insists he talk about it, Eddy lashes out in frustration. With Clare's help, Eddy learns that problems with a bully are not something to be ashamed of or embarrassed about-nor are bullies a problem which must be dealt with by an individual.
Pre-School Program for 3-5 year olds: Early Childhood Program on Aggression
A 1/2-hour program for younger children is also available in each region. A puppeteer will visit Head Start or preschool groups and bring along a puppet friend, a video and some music and talk with the kids about getting along, sharing and resolving problems without hitting.
