Terrance the Giraffe Teaches Kids and Wins Mom’s Choice Award®

Terrance the Giraffe
Growing up can be challenging. Kids understand this better than anyone, but sometimes they need a little more convincing that they are not alone. As they learn about and navigate the world around them, kids respond and react to literature and other forms of media that directly relate to their lives and interests. As kids deal with adversity, whether they feel different or face difficulties for being a little different, having a friend and a story to relate to can help them develop the self-confidence they need to overcome their personal obstacles by becoming stronger and more self-assured. Terrance the Giraffe, a personalized book from KD Novelties, aims to help kids better understand differences from within themselves and with others, and has earned a Mom’s Choice Award in its endeavor.
The Mom’s Choice Awards® (MCA) evaluates products and services created for children and families. The program is globally recognized for establishing the benchmark of excellence in family-friendly media, products and services. Parents, educators, librarians and retailers look for the Mom’s Choice Awards Honoring Excellence seal of approval when selecting quality materials for children and families.

4th of July and Summer Reading Challenge

We all look forward to summer, especially kids. Time spent away from the classroom and outdoors is a healthy way for kids to explore and expand their social health but it can also detract from their reading skills. Reading is important when it comes to academics and has been shown to have a direct correlation with academic success.
This summer, don’t let your kids slack in their reading by showing them that reading can be fun too. Incorporating books with upcoming holidays, like the 4th of July, can help get kids interested in reading. Whether kids are looking forward to a big barbecue, a family picnic, a weekend getaway, or simply watching the fireworks on the 4th of July, a book on the subject is sure to get them reading. Not only does it motivate kids to read by appealing to a holiday, it is also a great vehicle for introducing kids to our nation’s history.

Incorporating books with summer activities is a great way to get kids to read. It can also get them excited to partake in the activities they read about. If your family is planning any sports activities like going camping, playing baseball, football or soccer on the 4th of July, we have a series of personalized books that can get them excited to participate. “Football Star”, “G-o-o-oal!”, “Homer & Me” are all great personalized sports books that can help get your kids geared up to play ball. Other personalized books like “My CampingAdventure” and “My Fishing Adventure” can mirror the summer spirit and help inspire kids to read just as much as it inspires them to get outside and explore.
