5.0 out of 5 stars A must for all families with kids of all ages!, October 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Kids for Character: Learning Right From Wrong Has Never Been so Much Fun (VHS Tape)

This is an absolute must for all families, schools and CHURCHES! Not only does my 2-year old daughter love it (and literally ask to watch it everyday), but I have shared it with my Children's Ministry at church. It's fabulous! As parents, we want our children to have good character, but it is not always easy to explain the concepts in a language they can understand. This video is a great tool because it is in a language that kids not only understand, but it is delivered to them through some of their favorite TV personalities. It is never too early to start teaching your children about the six pillars of good character -- trustworthiness, respect, fairness, responsibility, caring and citizenship. "Train up a child in the way they should go, and when they are old, they will not part from it." Believe me, you will NEVER regret this purchase!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best kids videos we've ever bought., December 14, 1998

This review is from: Kids for Character: Learning Right From Wrong Has Never Been So Much Fun! (VHS Tape)

Kids for Character is one of the best kids videos we've ever bought. Six leading children teach us that "There are six simple words that you can use, to be a better person, if you choose." Those words are the pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. Six different kids shows do a short segment on each of the six pillars, which is a good introduction to a particular TV show if you've never seen it. If your child already likes a certain TV show, the familiarity is there, and if the show annoys another family member, the segment doesn't last very long anyway. Noteworthy is the terrific "fairness" segment presented by Shari Lewis and Friends. The segment on "responsibility" presented by The Magic Schoolbus seems to stray from the point, but the other segments are great. Quick clips of comments from real kids keep the pace up, too. Sponsoring organizations include teaching groups, sports groups and public service organizations, rather than a specific religious organization with a religious message, which is why I can recommend this video to any household.

5.0 out of 5 stars Five stars on my list of children videos, March 18, 2001

This review is from: Kids for Character: Learning Right From Wrong Has Never Been So Much Fun! (VHS Tape)

This is an amazing video for young children and adults alike. It teaches the six pillars of characetristics in an easy way. In each pillar there is a skit to go along with each pillar, which makes it easier for the children to understand. I would recommand this video to all parents.
