The Character Network Presents: Beginning of a Hero by Jim Lord
Kids & Family Podcasts
The Beginning of a Hero™ is a series of two-minute audio presentations for use on elementary school intercom systems. These stories work in conjunction with The Beginning of a FAMOUS Hero™ to portray a wide variety of realistic scenarios in everyday student life, whether in the classroom, on the school grounds, in the neighborhood, or at home. Through these stories, students vicariously learn: PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY • POSITIVE PERSONAL VISION • POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS Hundreds of elementary schools are currently playing these stories on the school intercom twice a week during morning announcements as a part of their character education and pro-active bully prevention efforts. Be sure to see what many of them are saying by clicking here! (These stories are available in video or audio-only formats to best suit your needs.) The Beginning of a Hero™ also serves as a POWERFUL PROACTIVE BULLY PREVENTION PROGRAM and much more! Each story introduces a negative or challenging situation that, through the power of choice (often introduced by a teacher, principal, counselor, parent, or peer) is turned around for a positive ending. The common language throughout the program is that HELPING is the opposite of hurting, and that a person who HELPS is known as a HERO, whether HELPING others or HELPING one’s own future self. Each of these stories opens with the words “A HERO is a person who does special things to HELP others. Every HERO starts out as a child and every child can CHOOSE to become a HERO.” And each story ends (music up and under) with the words: “That’s what I know about the beginning of this HERO, and I know that you can become a HERO, too!”
