What Our Clients Are Saying

Today my 5 year old and I met the Behavior Bear (who was very sweet) in a special program at our library. We also painted a creative picture and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves with Joni’s kindness, patience & creativity. Great experience for both parent & child. ❤️
​​Dear Ms.Downey,
"Super thanks for the great program you gave to all kids at Vernon Area Public Library today! My daughter learnt a lot and cannot stop discussing with me topics of good manners on our way home. She also asked me how to say all polite words in our native language. And she just hung the manners chart on her room. I really appreciate all positive impetus you promoted." Ivy Liu
"Great program for kids. Joni is amazing with kids, and so positive. I wish more kids would experience Character of Characters." Bet Mondroski
What an amazingly fun evening we had with Joni!! My 4th and 5th grade Girl Scouts had such fun making their snowmen!! Joni was great with the girls, she explained every step and helped the girls if they were having a hard time. Joni is very encouraging, patient and helped boost confidence!!
