Beetle appears in our new book “Yak’s Garden Party.” When Yak hosts a party for her friends, her perfect plans quickly unravel. Families can use this mini as a visual reminder of the story’s lessons in flexibility, turn-taking, and being kind to ourselves when things don’t turn out the way we expected. It’s very common for children (and adults!) to have an idea of how they want plans to go, especially on big events or holidays. When our plans aren’t followed or when friends have different ideas for the day, it can be challenging for kids to be flexible and problem-solve when they’re feeling disappointed.
