When teaching the English alphabet, we usually associate a letter with objects that start with such letter. This effective strategy lets the kids identify and remember the letters in a snap.

Meet a curious little explorer
The Prodding Child is the curious, diaper-wearing child who approaches a strange new thing with a question ready. The character celebrates curiosity, discovery, and our instinct to investigate the unfamiliar.
Can you imagine a world without questions?
What the child does – and why
When The Prodding Child meets something strange, enormous, imaginative, or simply new, the child does not just accept what is there. The child moves closer, looks carefully, prods, explores, and begins asking questions.
Those questions might be silly, factual, philosophical, imaginative, or completely unexpected. The point is not always to reach an immediate correct answer. It is to stay curious, imagine possibilities, investigate the unfamiliar, and think creatively.
A prod is a symbol of curiosity. Children poke, touch, and test the things that catch their interest, learning what may hurt, what feels delightful, and what leads to another discovery. Adults carry that same inquisitiveness whenever we refuse to let a good question disappear.
How The Prodding Child came to be
The character began in Dan’s sketchbook. While looking through his drawings, he noticed a recurring little child in a diaper encountering monsters, aliens, and other peculiar imagined creatures.
In the earliest drawings, the child kept some distance. In each new scene, that distance became a little shorter. Eventually the child became brave – or curious – enough to reach out and prod the creature. That recurring behavior grew into The Prodding Child and opened the way to more stories, questions, and adventures.
