About Us

Encouraging Character in Kids was designed by two teachers, a mother and daughter team from the Midwest, who have a passion to build character in children . Together, they have over forty-five years of teaching experience teaching children in preschool through middle school.  Their experience also includes a Master’s Degree in Education and over fifteen years of experience developing learning products.  They also own their own publishing company.
 
They saw the need for parents to have the tools to help teach kids character-building traits and the traits needed to be a responsible, respectful citizen who can get along with others.  All kids will make mistakes (and parents too), but the important thing is that kids grow and learn from their mistakes.  ​Children are far from perfect, and that is why they need parents to help them learn!  

They also saw the need to cultivate a stronger family structure by providing tools to parents to teach our future citizens the qualities that comprise good character.  The future of our nation depends on strong and loving families.
 
Their hope is that Encouraging Character in Kids will help to foster the development of good character in many children’s lives, strengthen the family structure, raise awareness regarding character and values, and make the world’s toughest job, parenting, a little bit easier.
