This quote from Mahatma Gandhi plainly states the philosophy of The Peace Company regarding children and peace.

To help end the cycle of violence in our world, we must, as adults, parents and teachers, learn to become peaceful and nonviolent ourselves. We must then impart this wisdom of peace to our children and they unto theirs.

To help educate ourselves and our children about peace, and to transform our society from a culture of violence to a culture of peace, The Peace Company is offering a range of parent/teacher, child- and teen-centered materials.

Our newly released Activity Book and CD, How to Raise a Peaceful Child in a Violent World is filled with 40 easy-to-do, fun activities. Louise Diamond, the book and CD author, and Elizabeth Slade the book’s co-author, have geared this material toward helping parents and teachers teach The Four Principles of Peace in a subtle, yet powerful, way. The escalating violence in the world impacts our children at many levels. The information in this wonderful activity book and CD could not be timelier.

Included with How to Raise a Peaceful Child in a Violent World is the first issue of Ask Bess & Bubby, an advice column for parent on how to raise peaceful children in today’s often violent world.
