How to Mind My Manners featuring Sparkelina is an easy-to-use tool that uses Kinderwise(R) characters to demonstrate proper AND improper behavior and the consequences of each.

KINDERWISE(R) was founded by a mom based in Southern California. She noticed that much of what she taught her child could be described as "The How-To's of Life!" She wanted to present these subjects in a way that children would remember.

With this in mind, she developed an EQ book series and other products featuring SPARKELINA(R) (a young girl), BUSYBEE (a giant bee), and SOPHIE (a pink elephant). This dynamic trio suddenly find themselves having to get along in the world for the first time. The friends learn valuable lessons in this wonderful new place. Experiencing life through the eyes of these characters allows children to learn in a fun and interactive way. This is the central concept of Kinderwise(R).

Parents and educators may also use their reading time as a conversation starter and delve into the real-life experiences of their children by using the "Suggested Reading Methods" outlines at the beginning of the book. How to Mind My Manners featuring Sparkelina can be used just for fun or as a teaching tool in a classroom setting, therapy group, or home.
