Described as 'the easy way to teach moral values to children', the Values Friends books, since their launch in 2005, have been finding their way into schools and homes as a way to teach good citizenship, spiritual, moral, social and cultural education. They consist of quotations and poems on each of the values; Truth, Love and Peace.

Example of 'Truth'

The sun shines bright in the blue sky
Sometimes it rains and I don’t know why
But the Earth needs rain like it needs the sun
And makes food grow to feed everyone.

Example of 'Love'

Arms that hug
Eyes that shine
Hearts that sing
Just like mine.

Example of 'Peace'

A big smile on my face
Means peace is in place.

I am happy and free
I like being me.

The books, available in or paperback from or all good book shops, can be used on their own or as part of the innovative product 'Values Friends', a set of two doll puppets, and are for children up to the age of 9 (2 books available for age 3-5 and two books for age 6-9). Pre-school nurseries and primary schools are using them in creative ways and you can read some testimonials below.

The Values Friend is an educational doll puppet, available in both genders and two ethnicities, with other ethnic friends joining in the future. A door flap on the chest of the doll puppet opens to reveal the values printed inside, symbolically showing that the values are within every human heart.
Teachers have welcomed this friend into the class to join in with circle time discussions using the poems and quotations . Children have welcomed the friend as someone wise and friendly, who confirms to them what, as young children they already know; that innate goodness is within every human heart regardless of outer appearance. The Values Friends doll puppets will be available to buy in shops in the near future, or can be purchased at www.ItsAllLight.co.uk

The author has a background in promoting values education material to primary schools in the UK and developed this product as a way to counter the influences of an increasingly disordered society and a culture driven by material values, by helping children to understand and integrate universal values.

Testimonials

“The books are priceless gems for our children. They have been used at a primary school in south London for four years to help children remember how fabulous they truly are. The books bring joy, fun, truth and comfort to the child. When the short poems are read a peace descends and the children's faces reflect joy and calm. The books are small, simple and inexpensive and should be in the possession of every child and school.

We love them ! They are a wonderful extension to the Values Friends which comprises of a boy and girl doll, known as Values Friends, that are equally inspiring and comforting to the children and appreciated by boys and girls alike.

These little books are an essential alternative to the sometimes negative and often pointless merchandise available to our children.”

Louise Collins - Shaftesbury Park Primary School, London , Volunteer Human Values Teacher

“Poppy and Todd were introduced to the nursery children as two children new to the district who had no friends and this provoked lots of discussion about being kind and friendly and thinking about how children feel……..We have found the dolls provide comfort and also increase a child’s confidence. The words in the poems are also easy to understand and some we know off by heart. We want to continue using Poppy and Todd in our young children’s social development and look forward to how this will go.”

Winchburgh Primary School, West Lothian, Scotland.

“Felt comfortable using puppets – they fitted in well to our puppet family. Children had a lot to say/ask about them. Thought they were twins regardless of different skin colours! Could be used for race, humanity lessons, R.E., bullying, etc."

Holy Family Primary, West Lothian
