Does this sound familiar?

"But that's not what we planned!"
"I don't want to do it a different way."
"It's not fair!"
"I can't do it now."

When plans change, little feelings can get very big.

A cancelled outing. A different plan. A favourite toy that isn't available. Something that simply doesn't work the way they expected. For young children, even small changes can feel frustrating, disappointing or overwhelming.

This adventure helps children learn that plans can change — and they can handle it.

What happens in this story?

Add a story illustration to complete this preview.

Litchi and Lime have planned the perfect adventure. They have their map, their backpacks and know exactly where they're going — until a fallen tree blocks their path.

Lime wants to stick to the plan, but Litchi wonders if there might be another way.

Their unexpected new route brings muddy puddles, slippery stones, uncertainty and plenty of problem-solving before leading them somewhere even more wonderful than they imagined.

Sometimes the best adventures are the ones we didn't plan.

THINK • FEEL • TRY

Every Little Grove Adventure helps children THINK, FEEL and TRY.

THINK

THINK IT!

What else could I try? Look around, think of another idea and remember — there may be more than one way.

Flexible thinking • problem-solving • finding alternatives

FEEL

FEEL IT!

How do I feel about the change? It's okay to feel disappointed, worried or frustrated when plans change.

Emotional awareness • naming feelings • coping with disappointment

TRY

TRY IT!

I can try another way. Take a small step, ask for help or give a new idea a try.

Resilience • adaptability • confidence to try again
