Bee a Buddy, not a bully!

 
Alice’s Pawfect Tea-Party ™ teaches
Bee a Buddy, not a bully!
 

Storybook Tea Kit Company  is aware of the epidemic of children being bullied by their peers. Just as manners were taught to Alice, so too, our children must be taught how to be inclusive with their classmates. Exclusion is a behavior which should have zero tolerance in our schools      Bee a buddy, not a bully!
 
When reading Lewis Carroll’s, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, there are numerous bullies throughout the story. Alice comes in contact with several of them at the Mad tea-party. When Alice approached the table the guests all cried out, “No Room, No Room!”  This is the very essence of a bully to exclude, and Alice’s Pawfect Tea-Party, shuns this behavior.
 
Alice, in this story of Alice’s Pawfect Tea-Party lovingly explains to all tea guests, that there is plenty of room for everyone. She teaches this lesson very cleverly. She states the word mad is exactly the same word as paw. All you do is turn mad upside down, reverse the letter a, and it becomes paw.
 
Alice goes on to explain that the letter P stands for peers or friends; A is for always; W is for welcome. Your peers, friends, classmates are always welcome; which to Alice is truly a “pawfect” tea-party.
 
This is the moral that children learn in Alice’s Pawfect Tea-Party; a moral that Storybook Tea Kit Company embraces for each and every child.
 
There is room for everyone!
 
Storybook Tea Kit Company will donate $1.00 on every purchase of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland to the National Bullying Prevention Center™ A project for PACER — A Champion for Children in the United States.
