From some of the most remote locations in the world, the compelling cinematography of wide-eyed children just being kids will quickly engage students attention. These children, like children everywhere, live their everyday life with the sweet innocence of youth combined with hopeful dreams for the future. Unlike children of more developed countries, they live in a world of limited modern day conveniences. Yet they thrive in tight-knitted communities with resilience, resourcefulness and a strong sense of responsibility.

The Children Of The World series will help expand children's worldview and understanding of cultural differences while at the same time provide a character building lesson.
