Show Your Kids How to Appreciate Kasambahays With the Help of 'Chenelyn! Chenelyn!'

Next to mom (and okay, dad, too), kids rely on yaya or the household help the most. We moms know what a big help they are around the house — we depend on them for almost everything and entrust our kids to them when we can't look after them ourselves! And because we are so comfortable with them and the job they do for us, it can be easy to take them for granted.

Kindness, gratitude, and recognizing the good qualities of a person are just some of the important lessons in Chenelyn! Chenelyn!, a children's book written by Rhandee Garlitos and illustrated by Liza Flores. Find out what happens to the household when Chenelyn, the trusted kasambahay, goes "missing" one day in this "Read Aloud" version of the story.
