What to Say When Someone is Sad by Aryani Siti. Illustrated by Msdotdoodles.

This story came from a small idea: instead of saying “Stop crying,” we can say kind words. We can listen and stay close. I wanted to show that when children feel sad, they can feel safe and understood. Even grown-ups can feel this, too.

Sometimes we all need someone to listen, to sit near us, or to give a gentle hug. I hope this story makes you feel comforted and reminds us that a little kindness can help hearts feel better.

Little girl feels sad, but Mum’s gentle words, listening ear, and hugs help her feel safe and understood. This story shows children—and even grown-ups—that kind words, listening, and staying close can help hearts feel better when someone is sad.

Naming Objects Activity

I made this activity by crochet the object and sew them in the cardboard. Through object play, children are learning about how the world works through trial and error, and develop their problem-solving skills. They also learn about the shapes, colours, and different objects in their environment. The area I am developing through this activity is to supports children's cognitive growth, motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction.
