Do your kids love to read?
The books present moral dilemmas to the readers as the members of the Spruce Street Six face difficult situations. The books work well, because they allow the readers to view the thought processes that the kids go through as they make decisions. In addition, at the end of each book there is a section called “Something to Think About from Zaki” that is a review of the important lessons parents and kids can talk about. But to the kids they are just fun interesting books.

As our lives get busier, opportunities to engage in conversations about building strong character seem to happen much less often. Life’s Building Blocks has created tools to help create these conversations on a regular basis.  Our team includes prominent ethicist, award winning writers and illustrators, and individuals who were involved with the product development for companies like Leapfrog®, Baby Einstein®, and Sesame Street®, so as you’re teaching, the kids are just having fun.

Life’s Building Blocks products are based upon a group of kids called the Spruce Street Six: Honest Jake, Jessica the Brave, Calm Carlos, Lauren Never Quits, Jarrett the Just, and Kind Shawnie.  Your children will also be introduced to Zaki the Character Chameleon who helps the Spruce Street Six recognize morally charged situations and helps them make good decisions.  This makes the learning experience fun, easy to relate to, and positive.
