The kit for Volume 1 includes Co-co the Wonder Bear puppet and illustrated storytelling figures. Co-co is used throughout the series. The storytelling figures change from volume to volume.

Celebrating My God-Self is a Bible-based, six-book series of 72 lessons. The themes are matched to What a Wonderful World! preschool series. Lessons are divided into two age levels: 6-8 and 9-10.
