Heroes Around the World
What does it really mean to be a hero?
You don’t need superpowers, a cape, or the ability to fly.
Heroes Around the World is an interactive character education assembly for elementary schools and libraries that uses magic, puppetry, storytelling, books, comedy, and audience participation to teach children that ordinary people can do extraordinary things by making good choices.
Throughout the show, kids explore six important character traits:
Responsibility • Citizenship • Fairness • Trustworthiness • Caring • Respect
Children meet fascinating people and characters from around the world while discovering that anyone can make a positive difference.
And they’ll be having so much fun, they may not even realize how much they’re learning!
Teaching Kids What It Means to Be a Hero
Heroes aren’t only found in comic books and movies.
Heroes can be people who help others, keep their promises, accept responsibility, treat people fairly, show respect, and make their communities better.
Heroes Around the World turns those big ideas into simple, memorable lessons elementary-age children can understand.
Fast-paced magic, colorful puppets, storytelling, comedy, and audience participation bring each character trait to life.
Instead of simply telling children to have good character, the show helps them understand what good character can look like in everyday life.
The message is simple:
You don’t have to be famous to be a hero. You just have to make heroic choices.
Six Character Traits Kids Can Use Every Day
Responsibility
Heroes take responsibility for their actions.
Children learn about making good choices, doing what they’re supposed to do, admitting mistakes, and understanding that their actions have consequences.
Citizenship
Heroes make their communities better.
Kids discover that good citizenship can begin with simple actions such as helping others, following rules, taking care of shared spaces, and contributing to their school and community.
Fairness
Heroes try to treat people fairly.
Children explore the importance of taking turns, listening to others, following agreed-upon rules, and considering how our choices affect other people.
Trustworthiness
Heroes can be trusted.
Kids learn why honesty, keeping promises, doing what you say you’ll do, and making the right choice even when no one is watching are important.
Caring
Heroes care about other people.
Children discover how kindness, empathy, compassion, and helping someone who needs it can make a real difference.
Respect
Heroes treat people with respect.
Kids learn the importance of listening, using kind words, respecting differences, and treating others the way they would like to be treated.
Together, these six traits give children practical ways to become heroes in their own classrooms, families, and communities.
Character Education Through Magic, Puppets & Storytelling
A character education assembly shouldn’t feel like a 45-minute lecture.
Heroes Around the World keeps children engaged through:
Magic • Puppetry • Comedy • Storytelling • Books • Audience Participation • Visual Lessons
Children help with the magic, respond to questions, meet hilarious puppet characters, and become part of the stories.
These visual and interactive experiences help turn abstract concepts such as citizenship, fairness, trustworthiness, responsibility, caring, and respect into ideas children can understand and remember.
Kids laugh. Kids participate. Kids learn.
Discovering Heroes & Cultures Around the World
Being a hero can look different in different places—but qualities such as courage, kindness, responsibility, and respect can be found all around the world.
Heroes Around the World introduces children to people, stories, and cultures beyond their own experiences.
Through books and storytelling, kids are encouraged to become curious about different countries, traditions, people, and perspectives.
That makes the program not only a character education assembly, but also an opportunity to encourage cultural awareness, curiosity, and learning about the world.
Encouraging Kids to Read
Want to discover more heroes?
Open a book!
Heroes Around the World introduces children to books and stories that reinforce the show’s themes, including:
Seeds of Change • The Jungle Book • The Legend of the Bluebonnet • Charlotte’s Web • Too Many Mangos • Mulan
These stories give children opportunities to explore courage, friendship, responsibility, caring, difficult choices, different cultures, and what it means to help others.
The show encourages children to visit their school or public library and discover even more stories about people, places, cultures, and heroes.
Learning to Find Books in the Library
Heroes Around the World also introduces children to the Dewey Decimal System.
Kids discover that libraries aren’t just filled with great stories—they’re also places where they can find information about almost anything they want to explore.
Learning how books and information are organized encourages independent research, information literacy, and curiosity.
Want to learn more about another country?
There’s a book for that.
Want to discover someone who changed history?
There’s a book for that too.
Character Education, SEL & Citizenship
Heroes Around the World reinforces concepts commonly found in character education and social-emotional learning (SEL) programs.
The show encourages children to think about:
Making Responsible Choices • Understanding Consequences • Showing Empathy • Respecting Others • Building Positive Relationships • Being a Good Citizen • Solving Problems • Appreciating Differences
Instead of presenting these ideas as a list of rules, the program demonstrates them through stories, characters, magic, and situations children can understand.
The goal is for children to leave asking themselves one simple question:
“What can I do to be a hero today?”
Reading, Social Studies & STAAR Connections
Heroes Around the World also reinforces skills elementary students encounter in the classroom.
Reading Comprehension & Literary Analysis
Stories and children’s books help students explore characters, themes, sequencing, cause and effect, motivations, problems, and solutions.
Children can examine the choices characters make and how those choices affect what happens next.
Vocabulary & Communication
Storytelling, puppetry, and interactive dialogue expose children to new vocabulary while encouraging active listening, speaking, and communication skills.
Research & Information Literacy
Learning about the Dewey Decimal System helps children understand how information is organized and how they can locate books and resources about subjects they want to explore.
Social Studies & Citizenship
Lessons about responsibility, fairness, caring, respect, and citizenship connect naturally with elementary social studies concepts involving communities, civic responsibility, culture, and the roles people play in society.
Critical Thinking & Problem-Solving
Magic, stories, and interactive challenges encourage children to make predictions, draw conclusions, evaluate choices, recognize cause and effect, and solve problems.
These connections reinforce skills students encounter in Texas TEKS and STAAR assessments while keeping the experience fun and memorable.
Perfect for Elementary Schools & Libraries
Heroes Around the World is a great choice for:
Elementary School Assemblies • Character Education Programs • SEL Programs • Citizenship Programs • Respect Week • Kindness Week • School-Wide Celebrations • Public Library Programs • Reading Events • Family Nights • Educational Children’s Events
The program is designed especially for elementary-age children and combines important educational messages with the kind of magic, puppetry, comedy, and audience participation that keeps young audiences involved.
