Clifford is excited to celebrate his 50th Birthday with you! He is asking all of his fans to give him the best gift ever to BE BIG! Being Big is about being Big-Hearted. It's about having a Big Spirit. Being Big is something we should all do more often.
It only takes a little to BE BIG.
Clifford's BIG Ideas (Share, Help Others, Be Kind, Be Responsible, Play Fair, Be a Good Friend, Believe in Yourself, Respect Others, Work Together and Be Truthful) were borne out of the curriculum developed for the award-winning animated television series - which airs on PBS KIDS. The goal of BIG Ideas is to support children's growing understanding that the actions they choose make a difference to themselves and others. The BIG Idea present value-based content that engage children in important life lessons.
  Learning the concept of acceptance is so important for children. Becoming aware of the similarities and differences among people is just the beginning of a child's experience in social growth. Opportunities to understand that diversity makes people unique and individually interesting can help a child to appreciate others early in life. Acts of kindness are not easily forgotten and one of the most wonderful qualities that a person young or old can possess.
