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.
  It is not always easy to accept everyone at first glance. Children sometimes have fears and apprehension about situations or people they are not sure about. Teaching them about the importance of looking beyond what someone appears to be is one way of helping them understand themselves and others. Listening to children's thoughts and discussing their feelings will help them form opinions about what's best for them when they are unsure or afraid.
