In today’s Whimsywood story, Hazel visits Oliver after a long week of brave moments for them both. Hazel brings Mistake Muffins to share and tells Oliver about her lunchtime bravery at her new school… while Oliver gathers up the courage to show her the dragon drawing he worked so hard on.
With Grandma’s help, the two friends play the Bravery Board Game — a gentle game that guides children through tiny brave steps like naming feelings, taking wiggly breaths, doing brave poses, and giving high-fives. Each square helps their brave hearts grow a little stronger.
And as they play, something magical happens…
A tiny shimmer appears on the Whimsywood map, reminding them that little acts of courage never go unnoticed.
