“The only way to have a friend is to be one.”
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

    • Friendship is a close relationship between two people marked by feelings of care, respect, admiration, concern, or even love.
    • Friendship is a relationship between people who like each other and enjoy each other’s company.
    • Friendships increase your sense of belonging and purpose.
    • Friendships boost your happiness and reduce your stress.

Kid President is on a mission to meet lots of awesome kids! Sometimes meeting new people can be scary.
What if they’re too different and we don’t get along? What if things get really, really awkward?

Every child has the right to a good night. Every night in America, too many children go to sleep uncertain of what tomorrow will bring, compromising their health, school performance, and emotional well-being. At Pajama Program, we promote and support a comforting bedtime routine to help all children thrive by providing cozy pajamas, inspiring storybooks, and critical resources for caregivers. After all, Good Nights Are Good Days.
