The Playdate Pals series is designed to teach children about good behaviors. Each story focuses and explores on one particular behavior. Playdate Pals Hamster Learns to Help focuses on the importance of helping others. The stories are written in clear, simple text, and the beautiful illustrations will keep children engaged and entertained as they read. At the back of each book, there are questions about the story. This gives adults an opportunity to discuss and build upon the issues presented in each book. Alison Walker (BEd) is an early-years teacher with more than 20 years’ experience running a preschool for children aged two to four years old. In addition, Alison also leads several other educational groups, ranging from toddlers to under five years old. Sarah Davis (BA Hons, MA) is an experienced writer and editor of children’s fiction and nonfiction with an M.A. in integrative child and adolescent psychotherapy. As preschool consultants for Playdate Pals, Alison and Sarah have advised on all aspects of the text and illustration, drawing from their extensive experience working with the target age group.
This teaches helping is good. And I also like how it kinda helps them learn to clean which is a huge struggle in our house for our kids. I like to make hamster sound really obnoxious to show the kids how acting like hamster is not nice. Its just so helpful and written so well. I love it!
