If your kid has big feelings about going to school you are not alone, in fact you're in good company. This story okays all the feelings. It let's your child know that it's okay to be sad, it's okay to cry, and it's okay to miss your grown ups. It reminds them that their feelings are real, and valid, and allowed. It also reassures them that they're safe and that their grown ups will always come back. Don't we all wish we had this story read to us growing up!? Almost makes me want to go back to school knowing I can feel any sort of way about it...almost. 

Ready to okay all the feelings? All you need to do is download our customizable template, add photos from your photo album, and edit the text to include details relevant to your kiddos routine. No time to customize?? We got you! Use our story with stock photos, it's included in your download!

Pro tip when customizing: don't be too precious about it! Your kid won't care if you repeat the same photo. They just want to understand what's going on. They want to know that they're safe and secure and that it's ok to let your tears out if you need to. Also, we know you're limited on time and trying to be there for your kiddo during this tricky time of year so we made adding a text a no brainer! The parenthesis indicate a section where you need to add personal information, such as the name of your child. The underlined sections include information that you may want to leave, change, or delete depending on your kiddos routine. 

After you've added photos and text you're ready to share the story with your kid.  How you share it is up to you and what works best for your family. You can print and share a hard copy or leave it digital, easy peasy! Now get going, and remember it's okay to be sad, it's ok to miss your kid...or not! All the feelings are allowed!
