Professor Mentchee, parent and educator of young children, grew increasingly more discouraged
trying to reinforce strong morals, and refined character traits in her young charges.
Teaching through play is effective, she knew, but what would do the trick?
Pondering her dilemma, she sat down at her desk and wrote a wish list for the perfect toy …
This is what she wrote:
Loveable, colorful,
and fun to hold,
are absolute musts.
They should be cute,
easy to cuddle
with faces children trust.
Each doll must shine
for its own reason,
show its own trait,
offer something to share
in exchange for
a snuggly play date.
They must be
plenty in number,
a joy to collect,
something
for children to
have, hold and respect.
Each one must be
special, unique
and outstanding,
like the children
who will be gaining
such understanding.
Setting down her pen, she turned off the light,
Professor Mentchee went to bed with an idea in sight.
The next morning she awoke to 84 smiling faces.
The Mentchees were born. Her dream had come true.
Special toys for children to love and tools for a parent or teacher to use,
the dolls were ready, they had work to do.
The Mentchees are know available at select Toy, Gift and Educational stores in
New York. You can also purchase some Mentchees
right now. They
are waiting to be taken to homes where children will love them and they can love
them back by imparting huggable nuggets of wisdom Professor Mentchee planted in each
character before sending them on their own way.
