Tabitha Philen, Homeschooling Parent
"[What] separates this product from any other like it is the fact that through the use of the personality profile they are giving us {parents and teachers} the tools to successfully teach any child...A tool so valuable, it's worth it's weight in gold!"
Carlie Kercheval, Homeschooling Parent
"Peanut went back to swim lessons for one extra class. Armed with tools obtained from her Kidzmet Playbook, we approached this swim lesson a little bit differently...When the lesson was over, the teacher commented how amazing this turnaround was—a special one-of-a-kind 180. My only reply—Kidzmet...Thank you Kidzmet. You've armed us with knowledge that has truly changed our lives."
Kathy Gossen, Homeschooling Parent
"The things I had already figured out about my children had come from over five years of teaching them, using trial and error. Yet every single thing I found out on my own was included in their Playbooks—and even more that I hadn't discovered yet! (Now, all the work is done for me! I will just use the suggested strategies.)"
Jennifer A. Janes, Homeschooling Parent
