Aesop's fables encourage children to think before they act, to control impulsiveness, and to demonstrate helpfulness. They teach children to be wary of smooth talkers and other trickery. The fables also teach the value of hard work and creative thinking, and they promote self-reliance and the ability to make the best of adversity.
