This is a gentle follow-up mini episode to the story Periwinkle Struggles and the Grudge Pebbles.

Grandpa Banjo Bill speaks directly to the listener, inviting children to have a quiet little think about the story and the emotions it explored. Together, we reflect on grudges, why they can feel heavy, and what it might feel like to gently let them go.

This mini episode offers simple questions and space for reflection, helping children build emotional awareness and understand that their feelings are valid, and that peace can begin when we choose to set something down.

There is no right or wrong here. Just calm conversation, curiosity, and kindness.
