Kindness is easier to learn from a story than from a rule. When a child watches a character notice that a friend is sad, help without being asked, or make up after a quarrel, they get a picture of what kindness looks like, and words for it they can use the next day.
These Gudiya Stories picture books are written by S.V. Bharathi, an early-years teacher in Tirupati, for children aged about 6 to 8. Each one is short enough for one sitting and ends in a natural place to stop and talk: how did she feel, what would you have done, who helped?
Ages 6 to 8. Younger children enjoy them read aloud; older children can read them on their own.
Cheers to Monday if your child is nervous about school; Spread Love for siblings or friends who are often compared; Rainbow's Birthday Bash around a birthday. The Kindness set of 3 has all three.
Yes. They're written and printed in India, with Indian names, school uniforms and settings children here recognise.
