You Can Do It! | Donkey Hodie

When I feel afraid, I can think about all the people who I have to cheer me on.

Purple Panda faces his fears with the support of his best pal, Donkey Hodie. Like many young children often do, Purple Panda experiences fear and anxiety when he feels alone while trying something new. Having a photo nearby can remind young children that even when they can’t see special grownups during school, they are always cheering them on.

In this Donkey Hodie craft, students will create their own “You Can Do It!” photo frames to keep at school or nearby during virtual learning.
