Wind, is being recognized as one of those "must have" resources for busy parents to help them impart to their techy kids the art of social graces.

The SMART Playbook can be an important tool for parents; teachers and especially the kids of today who are spend most of their time behind computer, smartphone and television screens. Busy parents need a little help teaching kids social skills and manners because nowadays kids are surrounded by technology which at times limits their face to face social interaction with others and hampers their ability to learn social graces and manners.
The SMART Playbook is not a parenting guide but a workbook designed for kids to learn social skills and manners. Suzanne explained her inspiration for the book: "As a mom of three kids (ages 11, 9 and 4), it quickly became apparent that my kids were not born with the ability to act politely. The onus is on me (and my husband) as their parents to teach them how to behave in society". Her book The SMART Playbook is an affordable easy fun solution to involve techy kids with game-changing workbooks. The book has been specially designed for kids with busy parents who can depend on the book to engage kids and allow kids to learn independently through the book's fun and engaging layout which includes over 100 games and exercises. Five SMART topics are covered designed to help children succeed, these include:
- Social Skill Basics – The principles of modern manners
- Mealtime Manners – A guide to mealtime etiquette
- Art of Conversation – Eloquent face-to-face conversational skills
- Restaurant Behavior – The finer points of restaurant conduct
- Technology Talk – Internet safety and responsible usage
"The 'gamification' methods included in The SMART Playbook is intended to help children ages 6-12 gain confidence, character, integrity and empathy in face-to-face situations and technology usage," said Ms. Wind.
Social skills and manners are critical for kids to help them stand out for all the RIGHT Reasons. The modern world puts children in many places and situations that may be new and unfamiliar to them and their parents. Also kids don't know the basics today and they are vital skills that can help them stand out as they grow older and interact with people and different situations. The SMART Playbook involves the kids with fun affordable award-winning workbooks that are an easy simple plan for busy parents to ensure that the kids learn and use the basics which are an essential part of leading a successful life.
