The First Friends Poster Series includes gorgeous photographs of children with diverse abilities, backgrounds and ages playing together in beautiful environments with engaging materials and activities. They offer many opportunities for storytelling and discussions with young children. I also use them with my adult early childhood students because of the high quality settings and developmentally appropriate activities that are so beautifully depicted and the concise teacher’s guide that accompanies the set.

I received ABC Helpers and love it! Along with the need for other books; there is also a need for “really good” alphabet books. In regards to alphabet books, ABC Helpers is far the best I have seen in a long time.

Friends at Work and Play book and poster set is a valuable resource for child care programs and families. I believe the work of all children is playing and learning together in natural environments. Kudos to Rochelle Bunnett for portraying this in a such beautiful, heart warming way! Her book and posters show how everyone can make a difference by helping in their communities.

The posters are beautiful and make truly evident an image of the child as full of potential and marvelous surprises, if we value each and family as they deserve.

Rochelle’s photographs capture the “heart” of children’s lives. The posters are beautifully done-a must for any early childhood professional to include in his/her work with children and families.

As a educator and parent, I look for that expectional book that naturally depicts the truest meaning of friendship- one that transcends differences in ability or color or age or gender and embraces community and compassion. This fun, beautifully produced book ( Friends at Work and Play) is just a find, and belongs in every children’s program and home.

ABC Helpers shows inclusion at its finest! Rochelles’ photographs and overall layout of the book is beautiful. This book definitely promotes the abilities of all kids and is a great teaching tool to get the message across that regardless of differences kids are first.

I recently had to upgrade my classrooms for including diverse and multicultural items. Your posters really hit the mark! They are very colorful to catch the eye of young children and adults. They are exactly what I need to show inclusion.

The posters and books we have purchased from Our Kids Press have really enhanced inclusion in our Head Start Centers. The children and families pictured truly reflect all backgrounds and ability levels in a meaningful context for young children-their everyday lives in their communities and classrooms…The materials have really filled a gap.. I haven’t been able to find this quality for this age-level anywhere else.
