Sometimes little worries feel big.

Benny the Bear has a busy mind. Tiny worries buzz around his head like "worry bugs," making it hard for him to relax and enjoy his day. He worries about tomorrow, about small mistakes, and about things that might happen.

As Benny's worries grow louder, he feels nervous and restless. With gentle reassurance from a loving parent and the help of kind forest friends, Benny learns simple ways to calm his thoughts-slowing down, sharing his worries, and focusing on what feels safe right now.

Little by little, the worry bugs grow quiet, and Benny feels peaceful again.
