Kindness Can Be Taught, And It Should Be Magical.

SPRiTELEES is a beautifully animated book series and kindness cure-iculum created to help children spark kindness in themselves and in the world around them. Through magical stories, loveable characters, and real-world causes, we invite children (and their grown-ups) to read, reflect, and take action.

We believe the best lessons are the ones that feel like play and the greatest adventures begin with a kind heart.

Do Good, Feel Good

When kids help others, they shine bright themselves. That’s the real magic of giving.

Learning Through Play

Kids remember what makes them smile. We use fun, color, and characters to make lessons stick.

Meet the Creator

SPRiTELEES was created by Marcia Stankard, a lifelong advocate for kindness, storytelling, and real-world change. Originally written to raise funds for pediatric brain tumors, her first book sold out in just 15 weeks and won a national parenting award. Now, with animation and new technology, Marcia has reimagined the series for a new generation.

Inspired by her children, the students she met in classrooms, and a powerful personal loss, Marcia's mission is simple: make kindness contagious, and make it stick.

  • Every child deserves stories that lift them up.
  • Every grown-up deserves tools that help kindness take root.
  • Every cause deserves a little more light in the world.
