Teaching children to make good choices.

Did you know that the Characters of Character earned a National Promising Practice Award? Although it was back in 2005 after piloting the characters, they have grown leaps and bounds. How? Joni has taken her experience from the Reading Team, building school Music Programs and Bulletin Boards to writing over 30 books now available on Amazon and other outlets. Joni wrote a grant and brought all nine of the Characters of Character to life in costume. Her imagination and creativity continue to grow as much as her passion, "Making A Difference One Child At A Time" If you haven't met Joni or heard about this organization, I encourage you to check them out. http://charactersofcharacter.org/index.php/testimonials/

Meet Behavior Bear, Do'er Duck, Friendship Frog, Healthy Hippo, Manners Monkey, Respectful Rabbit, Responsible Rabbit, Self-Esteem Elephant and Warm-Hearted Walrus, they would love to meet you!
