    What the stories are made of

    Kindness, curiosity and courage

    Every episode has one of these underneath it. We are not subtle about it, but we try not to be preachy either.

    • Kindness

      Noticing when someone needs a friend.

    • Curiosity

      Asking one more question than yesterday.

    • Courage

      Trying the wobbly thing anyway.

    • Friendship

      Showing up, every single time.

    • Imagination

      A cardboard box is never just a box.

    • Togetherness

      The best days are shared days.

      Why we made our slowest episode on purpose

      Most children's content is engineered to hold attention. We wanted to make something designed to release it.

      Seven tiny adventures for a flat afternoon

      For the days that have gone sideways by two o'clock. None of these need a car, money, or more than ten minutes of your attention.

      The surprisingly hard business of waiting

      Patience is not a personality trait children are born with or without. It is a skill, and like every other skill it is learned by doing it badly first.
