Teacher's Pet...You BET!
Filmore's Mission is to Both Entertain and Educate Kids at the Pivotal Pre-Adolescent Stage, Giving them Clear Lessons Regarding Coming-of-Age Personal, Character, Moral and Social Issues. To help educators and parents accomplish this mission we have created the following free download resource page with teaching materials like coloring pages, word searches, crossword puzzles and quizzes that reinforce the lessons and act as a springboard to good healthy discussions about these important topics:
A Note to Teachers and Parents of Mid-elementary Aged Kids:
Filmore's 'life lessons' are aimed at a very specific pre-adolescent window of personal development that begins around 6 years old until just about 9 years old, during which 'kid's aren't kids anymore' as far as their ability to grasp more nuanced concepts like the importance of moral character, individual purpose in life, the value of personhood and complex subjects like objective truth and the real deeper guiding meaning and power of love. This is an often-missed age range in children's books and thus a missed opportunity to help kids intentionally grasp foundational and propositional directives that they can develop and hold on to before the peer pressure, faddish social-engineering (that often starts in middle school) and the challenges and changes of puberty set in. The picture-book format, hilarious illustrations and straightforward messages are just perfect to bring these lessons home to kid's hearts and minds.
