Zara, You’ve Changed Your Hair Again?
Zara, a lively five-year-old, loves changing her hairstyles every week. But when her friends question her constant changes, Zara begins to doubt her choices. Through a journey of self-expression and understanding, she discovers the wisdom in embracing who she truly is and inspires others to do the same.
Zara was a bright and cheerful five-year-old who loved going to school. Every Monday, she’d wake up early, excited for another day of learning and playing with her friends. But Zara wasn’t just excited about school. There was something else she couldn’t wait to do—change her hair! Zara loved how her hair could be different every week, like magic.
Zara’s hair was magical. It could be curly, straight, short, long, braided, or even in a big, fluffy puff. Every other week, Zara would ask her mom to do something new with her hair, and every Monday, she would walk into school looking different. But some friends didn’t always understand why she changed it so much.
One Monday, Zara walked into class with two big, shiny puffs on the top of her head. She twirled around and smiled, showing off her new look. Her friend Mia, who was sitting at her desk, stared at Zara’s hair and raised an eyebrow. - Zara, why did you change your hair again? Mia asked, her face scrunched up. - Because I can! I like to try new things! Zara giggled and shrugged.
The next week, Zara arrived with a long, twisty braid down her back. Her friend Ethan stared at her and said, - Zara, did you change your hair again? It was puffy last week! Zara laughed and nodded. - Yep! My hair can do anything I want it to! But her classmate Olivia tilted her head. - Why do you always change it? It’s a bit… weird.
Zara thought for a moment. She loved how her hair could be so many different things, but her friends didn’t always understand. The next day, during circle time, Zara raised her hand. - Can I share something with the class? she asked. Ms. Reed smiled and nodded. - Sometimes, I like to change my hair, Zara began. - It’s fun to see how it looks when it’s different. And guess what? Everyone’s hair is different.
- I like my hair today because it’s in a big, bouncy puff, Zara continued. - But if tomorrow I want braids, that’s okay too! Hair is like clothes—it’s a way to show who we are! Mia raised her hand. - So, it’s okay to change things if we want to? Zara smiled brightly. - Yes! Change isn’t scary. Change is fun! We can always be ourselves and express who we are however we want!
Ethan grinned. - I think I’d like to change my hair too! Maybe I’ll try a mohawk next week! Olivia smiled, - I could try something new with my ponytail! From that day on, Zara’s classmates started to understand that it was okay to be different and to change things if it made them happy. They began to embrace new hairstyles, new outfits, and new ideas.
Zara was proud that she had helped her friends see that it was okay to be who you are, and change could be wonderful! Every Monday, Zara would come to school with a new hairstyle—sometimes curly, sometimes straight, sometimes big and bold. And each time, her friends would ask, - Zara, what’s your hair like today? Zara would smile and reply, - It’s whatever I want it to be!
