Review: Mrs. P: The Celebrity Role Model For All Children

Its a well-known fact that children are very impressionable and they can idolize celebrities, sports athletes, and media figures. However, sometimes the lifestyle and the persona these media figures embody is something less than desirable for parents. A celebrity who is giving the “right” message to our children is actress Kathy Kinney, who played the ever-lasting humorous, Mimi Bobeck, on “The Drew Carey Show”. Kathy is now known to children and fans alike as “Mrs. P”, bringing the love of reading to the world.

Mrs. P Enterprises, LLC, was founded by Hollywood team Clay Graham (executive producer of The Drew Carey Show), Kathy Kinney, and Dana Plautz (marketing executive for The Jetsons, Scooby Doo and The Flintstones). Mrs. P is an award-winning FREE, fun, educational interactive digital storybook destination. Teachers and parents can encourage children to have a love for reading by watching classic children’s stories brought to life by Mrs. P. Parents and educators will love the fact that Mrs. P’s website contain FREE interactive games, coloring sheets to download, and activity guides to accompany chapter books like “Alice in Wonderland”. Every story also offers read along options so children can see the words, which is helpful to early readers, and ESL students.

Since its inception, Mrs. P has been praised by the LA Times as “a welcome departure from almost any other video entertainment available for kids”, featured on national TV, radio stations and a special on The CBS Early Show. Mrs. P is the ONLY trusted, live-action personality promoting positive educational values, roles previously filled by the beloved Captain Kangaroo and Mr. Rogers.

Mrs. P is also an honorary board member of EveryBody Win! USA, a literacy and mentoring organization. She also works with the Association of American Publishers “Get Caught Reading” program where she has her own poster available to excite kids about reading. The National Parenting Center 2009 Seal of Approval and the American Library Associations Great Site for Kids have both honored Mrs. P with their awards.

Parents, have children who are tech-savvy? Mrs. P’s stories can also be downloaded through http://www.audible.com/, http://www.itunes.com/, and http://www.kidthing.com/ under the “Mrs. P Presents” banner.
Parents and teachers can now share a celebrity that is a true role model for children, Mrs. P.
