Just try your best, and remember: this is your special time to explore feelings, just like exploring a new playground.

Sometimes, it helps to bring something that makes you happy, maybe a toy, a sticker, or even your favorite snack! It’s like getting ready for your favorite game, you want to know what to bring and how to play so you can have fun and learn new things.
