A magical adventure (for 4-8 year olds) in learning kindness, caring, helping and sharing using animals around the world to teach empathy and kindness. Mickey and Molly didn't always make good choices at school. Molly wouldn't share her crayons and Mickey never waited his turn on the swings. They ignored kids feelings. But high above the clouds, Dr. Zip Zap and his long-horned unicorn were watching from their Flying Bubble Machine. And everything changed when they swooped down to take Mickey and Molly on a magical adventure.
Together, they soared around the world learning about kindness and why it matters. In icy Antarctica, a group of friendly penguins showed them how teamwork helps everyone. In Elephant Village, they learned how including others brings smiles all around. In the jungle, they met playful monkeys who stood up to a greedy bully gorilla that wouldn't share his bananas.
By the time the Flying Bubble Machine landed back at school, Mickey and Molly were ready to use what they learned. And soon, their new habits begin to spread through the classroom, filling it with laughter, friendship, and smiles! More than 40 pages of illustrations sparkle with lively color and imagination. The book features a diverse set of colorful characters in classic, painterly style by an award winning artist!
For Teachers, and parents, the book includes a KINDNESS Calendar for children to track kind acts, and offers helpful suggestions for Kind Acts at home, at school, and in the community, as well as a Kindness Certificate to display! A great book to read together with your child and to discuss kind acts and to build their daily habits of being kind, caring and empathetic! In the classroom, teacher lessons and worksheet: modeling and teaching KINDNESS and CARING contributes to the Social Emotional kind culture and wellbeing of the classroom, helping to reduce behavioral issues. This allows for greater academic focus with fewer interruptions. (The animal who helps save the day in one of the adventures is a Teacher Elephant). Tracking classroom kindness acts helps establish that KINDNESS, HELPING, SHARING and CARING are every day values that are important at school, home and in the neighborhood! There are enduring qualitities and values which last long after the last page is read!
