Review:

Wanting something we can’t have, something others have, is such a natural part of life, especially when we are younger. Dealing with jealousy is something that all children need to learn. This is often a hard lesson for children to have to learn, but videos such as this one with crazy, talented Frank Peretti as memorable Mr. Henry can do wonders to help you teach your kids how to handle jealousy. This video uses the story of King Saul and his jealousy of David and the story of Cain and Abel to look at jealousy in a way that is easy to understand. This video is completely entertaining as well as highly valuable in the lessons it teaches on jealousy. There was a wonderful message of using contentedness as the answer to fighting jealousy. I loved how Mr. Henry talks about the often heard belief that “the grass is always greener on the other side,” desiring what his neighbor had then turning around and sharing how others often feel the same way about what we have, showing kids that we should be happy with what we have and not be jealous of what others have because they want what we have, too. This is a great video for parents to consider showing their children with a powerful message.
