Why We Exist
Children do not simply read books ; they live those experiences when they see themselves within a book. The experience that is created for children as a result of seeing themselves in literature can be profound. They begin to build self-confidence. Their ability to identify and express their emotions becomes safer. They perceive challenges as being much smaller than before.
At Maple-Kids we bridge the gap between the imaginative world of childhood and the reality of today by transforming a child’s world (their family, their culture, their concerns, and their talents) into meaningful stories which help create an environment of emotional development.
Our personalized storybooks help children:
- assisting your child in understanding and identifying their feelings
- developing strategies to manage issues such as anxiety, transitioning from one situation to another, dealing with siblings
- helping them develop pride in who they are and where they came from
- Strengthen their relationship with family
Our Values
Emotional Intelligence
We believe that emotional intelligence is just as important as academic achievement. In our storytelling, every single one of our maple-kids Stories gently teaches children about the importance of developing their ability to empathize with others, develop resiliency, become aware of how they feel, and develop the skill to manage their emotions — all in an appropriate way for their developmental stage.
Inclusion & Cultural Respect
Every family comes in a different form. Families come in different cultures. Families speak different languages. Families have different traditions. And so do their children. At maple-kids, we take great pride in creating Stories with a deep respect for the diversity of our families’ Values and traditions. This ensures that every time you read a maple-kids story with your child, he or she will know that there is a place where they are represented, valued, and celebrated for being who they are.
Family Connection
Reading books to your child is more than reading. It’s connecting. Reading books to your child creates opportunities for conversation, strengthens bonds between parents and children, and provides special memories that families will cherish forever.
How Our Stories Are Created
Maple-Kids combines structured story frameworks, age-appropriate personalization, educational content direction, and automated technology to create personalized stories for children. The platform and content process are led by the company’s co-founders, Hessam Mohammadi and Dr. Sareh Jaberi. Where specialized services are required, Maple Kids may work with independent contractors and service providers.
