Axel's Playground Adventure
Axel and his friends navigate a day at the playground filled with challenges, learning the difference between empathy and sympathy to solve their conflicts and become better friends.
Axel loved playing at the playground, but today was different. His friend Mia was upset because Axel wouldn't share the swing. Axel felt angry because he wanted the swing too. They both shouted, unable to understand each other's feelings. The problem was that they didn't know how to be kind when they both wanted the same thing. The playground wasn't fun when friends were upset.
Axel tried to take turns, but he was still grumpy. Mia didn't want to wait and sat on the swing next to his. Axel frowned and crossed his arms. The other kids kept playing, but it wasn't fun for Axel or Mia. They both wanted to be first, and nobody wanted to give in.
Axel's best friend, Leo, came over and tried to help. But when he asked them to play together, both Axel and Mia just shouted "No!" Leo felt sad and walked away. The playground felt big and lonely. Axel didn’t like feeling alone, but he didn’t know how to fix it.
Axel sat on the grass, feeling like he would never have fun again. He thought maybe it was better to just stop playing. Mia sat on the other side, feeling the same way. Axel sighed and looked around. He missed laughing and playing with his friends. He thought about giving up on having fun today.
Just then, the playground teacher, Miss Lily, came over. She smiled and explained the 'pillow method' to Axel and Mia. " - You need to listen and understand each other's feelings," she said. " - Imagine holding a pillow, and talk softly." Axel and Mia looked at each other and nodded. They decided to try it.
Axel and Mia took deep breaths and sat down together. " - I'm sorry for not sharing," Axel said softly. Mia smiled and said, " - I'm sorry too. Let's take turns from now on." They both giggled and ran back to play. The playground was fun again, and they knew how to be better friends.
