'Character Critters' Program Teaches Children Valuable Lessons
[Image: Character Critters Logo]The LSU AgCenter offers a valuable Character Critters program for students. Character or moral education has been identified as a key need for citizens in America. Many believe providing character education for all our children at home, in school and in our communities can help our nation. In keeping with this growing recognition that character education is critically needed for our young children and youth, Character Critters was developed by the LSU AgCenter's Dr. Becky White to provide much-needed character education for students.
The program consists of Character Based story books for children. Each story has a character that promotes good habits and qualities for children. The characters promote citizenship, caring, fairness, responsibility, respect and trustworthiness.
Several schools are participating in the Character Critters program this year. For more information on how you can participate or volunteer in Washington Parish, contact Valerie Vincent or visit Character Critters on the LSU AgCenter Web site.
