Little lessons, everyday actions
Choose one guide for the week. Try its activity, then notice what helped and what you might change. There are no scores or perfect-behaviour prizes. Finish with the squirrel’s reminder that different helpers contribute in different ways.
Take one reading at a time. Allow extra time for videos, conversation and activities.
