Recognizing and Practicing Core Values

Imagine a group of afterschool children who kindly welcome a new peer, include everyone when playing basketball and comfort someone when they've had a bad day.

Two by Two Character Development can help you bring this vision to life in your educational setting.

We know that educators want hands-on curriculum that will teach social and emotional skills and have fun at the same time! Two by Two's year-long program, Kindhearted Kids Make a Difference, offers children a chance to recognize and practice core values, such as fairness, kindness, respect, responsibility, empathy, cooperation, perseverance, and citizenship.

All Kindhearted Kids programs are designed to capture a child's attention, imagination and heart by including animals in the curriculum. When a child's head and heart are engaged in learning, life-long knowledge takes root!

With many of our children forced to grow up so fast, Two by Two's research-based programs offer a playful and engaging way for children to learn positive behavior traits that will help them succeed in school, work and life.
