What is Be Honest and Tell the Truth about?

Learning to be honest starts with understanding the difference between what is true and what is not. Through simple words, colourful pictures and relatable situations, children explore how truthful words and actions help people trust one another. They discover that telling the truth can sometimes feel difficult, especially when they have made a mistake, and learn ways to speak honestly with courage and kindness. Discussion questions, role-play scenarios, skits and games provide opportunities to practise these important social skills.
