Every night, a boy and his 32 stuffed animals have a visitor come by--a scary one that wants to eat them! Monsters can feel real and our fears feel like they can get bigger and bigger. But there are loved ones who will stay with us and we can face them together. And who knows, maybe our monsters are ticklish, too!

Parents, here are 4 powerful ways to connect with your little one during the story: 1) Say, "Hello fear, I see you. It's okay that you are here" when prompted by Steffani. 2) Pretend to blow up a balloon and tie off the fears inside with your child. 3)Let go of the balloon and model imagining it float into the sky as prompted. 4) Give your child a reassuring hug.
