SUPPLY, NC, January 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) In the modern age of technology, many grandparents feel left behind, unable to connect in a meaningful way with their grandchildren. Bedtime stories, fairy tales and books were once a core activity in regards to connecting with grandchildren, but much of that has been lost as technology has taken center stage. Trenna Daniels believes that technology can actually enhance communication. She has created a full line of bedtime stories available for download in electronic format.
These award winning bedtimes stories form a series of highly entertaining adventures, filled with engaging music and sound effects, that help children cope with growing up. The ideals and values imparted are time-tested, and the stories are delivered in a way that children get the message.
"I know I don't stand alone," stated Ms. Daniells, "in the outlook that our children are becoming ever more connected through TV, videos, cell phones they are being more disconnected. Unfortunately many of the values that children are formulating today are not providing them with the foundation they need to become functioning, well-adjusted, responsibly independent adults. As parents and grandparents we need to actively instill good values and promote strong family bonds. I think we all remember the wonder, magic and value of bedtime stories. By sharing stories in which characters survive and prosper while facing adversity and challenges, it helps children to understand that they will survive too. By sharing these stories in a format in which children have a natural affinity, we not only open the channel of communication and reconnect, we allow young minds to engage their creative imaginations! Sounds like a good old fashioned storybook to me."
"As our lifestyles change," she continued, "and more families have both parents working outside the home, grandparents are more actively involved in rearing grand kids. It becomes incredibly important to reinforce and reestablish strong family ties. We must approach our child-rearing with a new and different spirit. We must create a family atmosphere that doesn't center on passive activities such as watching videos, TV and playing video games. I can't overly stress the importance of building this kind of foundation and it is never too early or too late to start. Stories open a door of communication where children are more comfortable to talk about situations in which they are having difficulty coping. Audio stories open that magical world where we can realize we all create our own life's story.
The One To Grow On Audio Series has won numerous awards and has been recognized by some of the country's most prestigious children's organizations. The series was awarded the Seal of Approval by the National Parenting Center. Creative Child Magazine gave the series the 2010 CD of the Year award. The series was named among the best in family-friendly media, products and serves by the Mom's Choice Awards. 'Exercising Good Relationships' received Dr. Toy's Best Children's Vacation Products Award in 2010.
More information including a no-charge kid's audio bedtime story and numerous samples are available at the company's website. Trenna Daniells is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below or by email at trenna@kids-audio-stories.com.
Trenna Daniell's formal education was in art and music. A life-long student of philosophy and metaphysics, she won a national reputation as a Human Potential Seminar trainer and lecturer. She has appeared on more than a hundred radio and television programs throughout the United States, including Good Morning America. Braille International of Stuart, Florida translated many of Trenna's stories into Braille books and cassette stories for the blind.
When not writing children's books, Trenna uses her education at Mt. Hood College and the UCLA Design School in California to express her art. Among her credits: a series of greeting cards for Island Heritage. Her work has appeared in Aloha Airlines Magazine and Artists of Hawaii, and in the Collectors Galleries on Maui and Kauai. The Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas commissioned Trenna to produce southwestern pastels for its hotel. Her work also hangs in numerous resorts around the world, including Sandals Resort on Negril Beach in Jamaica. She currently shows in galleries in both Vail and Aspen, Colorado.
