The Happy Days Tool
Tools to teach and ignite the practice of giving and receiving respect, one day at a time.
What Is Respect Today?
Respect Today is a kid‑powered movement that turns respect into a daily superpower by linking fundamentals to the days of the week. With The 7 Happy Days we help kids build positive habits through playful puppet characters, colorful stories, and simple choices that make life happier at home, school, and in the community.
Kids don’t just learn respect—they live it. And they pass it on to others!
The 7 Happy Days Program
Each day has its own theme or respect core principle along with a fun, interesting animal pal to explore and learn with. Meet Respect Today’s main cast of characters. Each is a fabulous friend with personality, flaws, and challenges. They all come to life in the classroom and at home via the popular Folkmanis puppets.
