I AM 4 Kids is a wonderful program for implementing a desperately needed tool in the lives of children. Using psychologically sound, and well developed techniques related to identity development and the power of goal setting, Mark Papadas gives schools a way to help children actively develop a sense of who they are, and who they want to become.
I AM 4 Kids combines solid goal setting techniques with tools for identifying and building healthy identities for children. The benefits of goal setting are so well researched and demonstrated that it is a fundamental piece of any self improvement, personal, or professional development system.
To reach a goal, you need to fundamental pieces of information, where you are, and where you want to go. Mark provides solid and engaging tools to help children build a sense of who they are and where they want to go in their lives. If a person is not clear about “who” and “where” they are, they are not likely to achieve their goal.
As a psychologist with over 35 years experience doing therapy, and as a father with two grown children, I can honestly say that I wish my children had the benefit of a program like this when they were in grade school. I highly recommend the I AM 4 Kids program.
