Welcome to Life as a Leaf
A Simple Approach to Character Development
Life as a Leaf: Growing Integrity in Children is a simple effective program for helping children realize
their connection to others in the larger world at a very early age. It is based on the perspective
that every decision we make has consequences, no matter how small, because we are all
connected. Our actions impact the world and those around us which, in turn, affects us as
individuals. Therefore, to the best of our ability, our actions should always positively, rather than
negatively, impact society. This is what integrity and character are all about. The earlier children
internalize this, the better and more sound their decisions will be, positively impacting all areas of
their lives.
Life as a Leaf: Growing Integrity in Children stresses that integrity can be learned just like any other
skill and is written for those caring for children in the home. As you will find, it is extremely
practical, utilizing existing effective mental techniques and combining them into a package that
children of all ages can understand. It is easy to read in a short time and is uniform across all
religious, cultural, and racial backgrounds.
