Research-Backed Books & Activities
that help families raise connected kids (ages 3 to 7)
Developed by Dr. K, Parent & Educator
As a kindergarten teacher, I saw how much more meaningful storytime became when children were invited to participate—not just listen.
That inspired me to create Teddy in Trouble, a series about Teddy, a curious and lovable little boy whose everyday mishaps invite kids to think, talk, laugh, and problem-solve alongside him.
By turning reading into a conversation, we can build literacy and critical thinking skills while helping children feel heard, engaged, and excited to read.

Parents & Experts Love Teddy
As a kindergarten teacher for 27 years, I’m always looking for new ways to make teaching sight words meaningful and exciting. Your Sight Words Box takes a holistic and play-based approach. I would definitely recommend it to any parent or teacher of emergent readers.
After reading about Teddy’s troubles, we can chat about why he made certain choices and what we might do in a similar situation. It helped me connect with my kids at a deeper level. I highly recommend this book series.
Teddy in Trouble supports the positive behavioral development kids deserve to experience during childhood. Through fun exercises and stories, this thoughtful brand supports the socioemotional development of children.
