Our Story

Playtime holds challenges for many children – whether it is because a regular playmate is missing for the day or because a child has not yet developed the social skills he or she needs to be successful. As parents, we try to give our children the tools they need to have successful friendships and to grow into compassionate adults – and the Buddy Bench is one more tool we can add as a visual reminder that sometimes we all just need a buddy. By teaching children that anyone can benefit from a Buddy Bench with our inhouse #ItsCool2BKind program, we can help children to release the stigma of asking for help, celebrate students who act with compassion and kindness and foster students in developing conflict-management skills, thus relieving anxiety, stress and feelings of isolation.
