About Our Curriculum
“Catching the attention of young children to teach them manners will
be so much easier with this video and matching story book. It is a
short, entertaining, and will be great tool for both parents at home and
teachers at school. Do some more!”
Ranay Roth
Principal of Early Childhood
“The enthusiasm and personality Travis and Presley bring to an
important topic makes learning fun! Children always learn a concept
better when it is brought into a context that they enjoy.”
Dr. Susan L. Stansberry
Associate Director of Professional Education
Oklahoma State University
“The Travis and Presley duo actively instill the value of good manners
into an adventure that kids will remember.”
Ann Houston
Oklahoma Career Tech Educator
“We have really loved using the kit. The children absolutely loved
the video and the teachers enjoyed the sight words and hand writing
activities. I was able to easily add to a lesson to talk about compound
words such as doghouse and playground. Great curriculum!!”

“Adventures With Travis and Presley and the Good Manners
curriculum have become a BIG HIT here at Wilson Elementary in
Bartlesville, OK. This is such a fun way to teach our students the basic tenet of good
manners as a part of developing positive character.
“In a decade where more and more students are beginning school
with little exposure to the social graces of good manners, this
curriculum meets a critical educational need with a very practical,
engaging approach.”

it greatly! You really have an ability to instill hope as you speak. Our
kids need that!”

“Wow! What an outstanding presentation! Travis and Presley related
their experiences with each other to learning and made strong
connections to use in the classroom. Our teachers loved them and
thought they were very connected to the affective side of teaching.
Travis and Presley are well worth the time and the investment in
concepts and ideas that will definitely have long term influences on
teaching.”
Shelley McDowell
Assistant Superintendent

“The principles taught by Travis and Presley break the mold of
ordinary 'in service and professional development meetings'. They
are fresh, fun, and specific! The most engaging and endearing "in
service" that we've had in years! Loved them!”
Stephen Smallwood
Oklahoma's Teacher of the Year
“The presentation from Travis and Presley captured our hearts and
minds. The duo kept us captivated by incorporating multiple learning
strategies while being engaging, unique, relevant, and inspirational.”

“Boxer Presley and sidekick, Human Travis, have both overcome the
odds. Their unique partnership and energy engages the audience from
the word ‘go’ through real-life stories and interaction that show the
value of taking a chance, a positive attitude, building relationships, self-
motivation, determination and setting goals.”
