A moment that isn't on the list
Tell us what happened, in your own words. Zubby makes a short "let's imagine" cartoon from your story, to watch together and talk about.
An example story beginning for this moment. It is not a cartoon of your own story.
Cartoons are made with AI. You preview each one before your child sees it. Automatic checks can miss things.
Let's imagine
Example, made with AI
Mia (6) lets go of her red balloon and watches it float away. "I wanted to keep it," she says. Her dad kneels beside her. "It was a nice red balloon." They watch it get smaller. Mia waves. She is still a little sad. Her dad holds her hand.
The characters in this example are made up. Your child can be the hero, with or without a photo.
What happens in the story
In the example above:
- In this example, Mia says what she feels: she wanted to keep her balloon.
- Her dad kneels beside her and says it was a nice red balloon.
- Mia waves. She is still a little sad.
Talk-after card
Here are three gentle questions to talk about after this example. Best watched together, then followed by a chat or a game.
- What happened to Mia's balloon?
- How did Mia feel? What did her dad do?
- What would you like to say to Mia?
Use the ones that feel right. Skip any you like.
What a cartoon can and can't do
- Each Zubby cartoon is made to be talked about together. It can't do the work of routine, patience or your child's doctor.
- If you are worried about your child's sleep, eating, fears or behavior, talk to your child's doctor, nurse or teacher.
