presentations, workshops and "Kindness In Covid" programs

Children in Kindergarten through 3rd grade obtain a clear education on acceptable and non-acceptable behaviors, identifying and understanding 6 types of bullying, having compassion and understanding towards children with different abilities and different races as they learn about non- judgment, forgiveness, kindness and friendship. This can be done with puppets as well (in collaboration with Once Upon A Season Puppet Show) and is recommended for this young group as we engage children further and offer solutions with our unique talents of story-telling that identify all 6 types of bullying and offer solutions.

Children in 4th & 5th grade obtain the same information as k-3rd grades plus a more in-depth training on 6 types of bullying specially cyber bullying, practicing the “6 Pillars” of character, accepting diversity, respecting peers with different abilities and learning practical peaceful solutions to work out differences, specifically for the bully, the bullied, and the bystanders. Videos further engage children to learn more about friendship and inclusion as well as show visual and scientific impact of kindness within our circles and beyond. We encourage a teacher from this group to lead a Kind And Safe Schools Club with our support.

Middle school kids are more seriously subjected to cyber bullying besides struggling with peer pressure. This group’optains a more in-depth education on how to protect against cyber bullies and the right course of action when it happens. Encouraging those who get bullied to be strong and secure with who they are, those who bully others to be more respectful, kind and compassionate towards all and the bystanders to invite diversity into their groups so no student is left alone without a friend. This group is also encouraged to form a Kind And Safe Schools Club to continue the momentum all year long with our support.

Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among young adults 15-24 years of age. This group is also presented with criminal bullying, the short term legal consequences as well as long term effects of bullying on bullies and their victims as they are stepping into adulthood, how their choices of what they let into their body and mind as well as their friendships now can affect the rest of their lives, while encouraging them to say no to drugs and violence, learn to love and believe in themselves, use their abilities to become our next generation of leaders and peacemakers, come together as one, embrace diversity to build a stronger and healthier future for themselves and others.

Less than 30% of children getting bullied go to an adult to inform them about the incident and when they do, the responsible adults need to know how to handle the situation in the best way possible to minimize the damage. Also, children do what we do not what we tell them to do! This presentation provides insights into how parents can be who they want their children to become, accentuate the positive in their child, stay connected and always leave the line of communication open as they help raise a generation that values peaceful negotiations, respecting all and accepting diversity and differences. Parents also learn about the proper response and course of action to take when their child bullies or is bullied at school or online.

This presentation provides the latest research and information available on prevention, effective intervention techniques, legal responsibilities, procedures to follow during and after a bullying incident.  As educators, your role in helping to identity, help and stop bullying is crucial. About half of children live with a single parent who are most likely juggling a busy daily schedule and may not have the time to provide daily guidance if their child is experiencing bullying at school. In some cases, you are the most important influence for a child that can help them heal their pain and get themselves out of a bullying situation. We provide a practical guide to provide a bully-free and safe environment for all at your schools.
