🎨 How to color it

Give the giant heart balloon a bright cherry red, the striped shirt sunny yellow and white, the star shirt sky blue, and the flowers pink and purple. Use chunky crayons for the big heart and shirts, and let little hands color right over the bold lines if they want. Try making every star on the smaller child’s shirt a different happy color, like tiny shared smiles.

Under the soft park clouds, Benji hugged a red balloon string. He had made a little challenge: keep one happy puff all to himself. Puff, puff, puff went the wind. The balloon grew warm and round.

Then Tavi ran up, smelling like grass and daisies. “Share?” she asked. Benji gave one tiny nod. Their giggles bumped together—ha, ha, hoo! The balloon pulled into a heart and floated over both heads. Ever since, the biggest joy makes a heart when two friends stand close. Can you spot their shared happy puff?
