Let's take an emotional journey with seven-year-old Acire and her heavy-felt feelings as she learns about healing, forgiveness, and courage.
After an upsetting day at school where she overhears hurtful words from a close friend, Acire rushes home, packs up her toys, and goes on a walk through her neighborhood. Led by her special butterfly friend, Omni, she arrives at a very unfamiliar mountain. It is huge, beautiful, & frustratingly tiring to climb with all she's packed. Omni gently guides her as she climbs, teaching invaluable lessons on emotions and how to rise above them towards healing.
But will Acire be able to release what she has packed to reach the mountain's top?
Emotions can be so hard to handle but even harder to let go of, especially when our feelings are hurt. Acire and Omni's journey is here to ready children before, during, & after hurt is felt, teaching them how to question, identify, accept, learn from, and best handle their emotions.
