Buddie teaches important lessons

[My son] says Buddie is his cool new friend who teaches him important lessons. I’m a single mom who’s still working full-time from home and has a baby on my hip all day. Even though I can’t be Kyle’s journaling buddy I’m grateful that Buddie is! Buddie keeps my son wanting to learn and become a confident big life buddy to his friends. Thank you!

We love the episodes!

Buddie’s there for my daughter to be her journaling buddy when I can’t. She loves Buddie’s stories and ways of explaining things in ways that encourage her. She plays episodes over and over again and is actually working through the book! Thank you.
