The Manadoob Program for Self-Esteem
at
Fort Riley
• The Manadoob Program for Self-Esteem ran a pilot which reached 150 children
at the Fort Riley Military Base in Kansas.
• Training and support was provided for 20 staff members
• Eight individual classes were conducted combining various age groups
Juanita Smalls
School Age Center
Fort Riley
“When I first started reviewing the Manadoob material I was very hesitant about
exposing the children within my program to the information contained on its well
printed pages. My hesitance was derived from the use of mystical stones, awkward
looking creatures, and heavy content. But after I started implementing the program
I actually liked it and gained a better overall understanding of its concepts. As the
facilitator expressed to the caregivers during our initial over the phone training session,
‘You have to make Manadoob your own’ and in doing so I was able to experience good
results. Because of techniques taught in this program a child that I knew who suffered from
extreme shyness is now able to express himself in a positive manner. He needed to
believe in himself, that people wanted to hear what he had to say, and he was valuable.
I honestly believe due to the positive interactions during our group sessions he was able to
overcome being extremely shy. He was always the first one in my classroom when we
met for group time. He was eager to discuss any topic. The children in my group were
very interactive and showed no signs of fear or distress with discussion topics listed in the
Manadoob textbook. I like this program so much I’ve talked about it with a close friend of
mine who directs a BCGA program in Kentucky. I conveyed to him it would be a nice
addition to implement Manadoob in his summer program.”
“ [It] Benefits by having staff members own the program [which] can be quite helpful;
especially to military children. The associated characters represent stepping stones
towards understanding what exactly is involved in the positive reinforcement of self -
esteem and coping with loss.” Richard Schott , School Age Center, Fort Riley
“My group for this Manadoob Program really enjoyed it. The children took turns
reading the book and with each assignment in the workbook they also took
turns telling their stories. We talked about all different feelings and talked
about how to share them in a positive way. The children in my group still share
things in a positive way.” Amanda Jaymes, School Age Center, Fort Riley
“The Manadoob Program was a great way to teach
students about believing in themselves. My favorite
part of the program was watching the students reaction
to the animal therapy sessions. We had a great in-depth
discussion about how animals make us feel better. The
students were eager to learn about therapy animals and
the impact they have on people. The students really took
great interest in the animals and how they impact us
everyday.”
Meghan Ajac
School Age Services Center
Fort Riley
The Moobia Stones are the Manadoob’s FUN and insightful gift of
guidance and clearly a favorite for the children at Fort Riley!
Joan Keating
School Age Center
Fort Riley
“Manadoob proved to be a positive experience for adults
and children alike. The program allowed children to ‘open a
window’ to others and share parts of their lives and feelings
that they may not have normally done. The children were
intrigued with the Moobia Stones. Older children liked
using the Reference Guide to better understand the words
from other cultures. Younger children enjoyed the many
opportunities to share and do creative projects. Adults liked
using a program that was easily adjusted to the maturity of
the group to which they were assigned. Thanks for
something new in which to engage with the children!”
We are very proud and honored
to bring
The Manadoob Program
for Self-Esteem
to the very special
Kids of the Military!

The associated characters represent stepping stones towards understanding what exactly is involved in the positive reinforcement of self - esteem and coping with loss.” Richard Schott , School Age Center, Fort Riley
  • 5. “My group for this Manadoob Program really enjoyed it. The children took turns reading the book and with each assignment in the workbook they also took turns telling their stories. We talked about all different feelings and talked about how to share them in a positive way. The children in my group still share things in a positive way.” Amanda Jaymes, School Age Center, Fort Riley
  • 6. “The Manadoob Program was a great way to teach students about believing in themselves. My favorite part of the program was watching the students reaction to the animal therapy sessions. We had a great in-depth discussion about how animals make us feel better. The students were eager to learn about therapy animals and the impact they have on people. The students really took great interest in the animals and how they impact us everyday.” Meghan Ajac School Age Services Center Fort Riley
  • 7. The Moobia Stones are the Manadoob’s FUN and insightful gift of guidance and clearly a favorite for the children at Fort Riley!
  • 8. Joan Keating School Age Center Fort Riley “Manadoob proved to be a positive experience for adults and children alike. The program allowed children to ‘open a window’ to others and share parts of their lives and feelings that they may not have normally done. The children were intrigued with the Moobia Stones. Older children liked using the Reference Guide to better understand the words from other cultures. Younger children enjoyed the many opportunities to share and do creative projects. Adults liked using a program that was easily adjusted to the maturity of the group to which they were assigned. Thanks for something new in which to engage with the children!”
