Blogging assignment

Brand or business name:

Clever Tykes

Please tell us about the product or company you would like the blogger’s help with?

Clever Tykes is a series of three storybooks for children ages 6-9 to inspire them to be positive, resourceful and enterprising.

The Clever Tykes books promote important values through morals and role models whilst being fun reading books. Perfect fiction for bedtime reading, home learning and character building.

The main characters are Walk-it Willow, Code-it Cody and Change-it Cho. Each character realises that there is something they are especially good at or passionate about, and they set about making this into their own venture. The stories incorporate the target literacy and numeracy skills for the specific age range and the entrepreneurial messages are subtle whilst important characteristics such as innovation, independence, goal-setting; hard work and resourcefulness are promoted.

This review perfectly sums up everything the books are trying to achieve:

“Personally, I think these books are fantastic. Eva’s attitude has changed since reading them. She has started putting a lot more effort into everything. Challenges no longer end in tears since Eva read the Clever Tykes books. Eva is stopping to think of ways she can solve problems rather than getting upset and feeling defeated. Definitely a sign the books have helped instil positive enterprising behaviour.”

What is the blogging assignment?

We are seeking independent reviews of our storybooks to help generate awareness of the Clever Tykes series and the accompanying online resources.

Your blog could include:

– an in-depth review of one or more of the individual stories
– feedback and quotes from the reader on what they thought of the story
– any changes in behaviour that you have noticed since your child read the storybooks (or a change in the questions they asked!)
– ideas on how parents and/or teachers can use the books to their best effect
– comments on the ideas we share on the Clever Tykes website, about creating a generation of resourceful, creative and positive individuals.

What type of blogs are you looking for?

We are looking for bloggers in the parenting or education sectors. Ideally, bloggers have a child ages 6-9 or are a primary school teacher.

We are looking for bloggers with:

– authoritative websites (page rank, trust flow, page authority)
– good engagement with the blogs written (well-commented and shared online)
– strong social media presence (high levels of engagement, not just follower numbers)
– respect and influence in their field

Extra credit is given for blogs that aren’t primarily product review sites. We want to be represented by exciting, influential and knowledgeable bloggers who clearly know about children’s reading and/or these areas of education.

Preferred geographic location of the blogger:
