Trying new things can feel scary especially when you feel safest staying right where you are. The WorryWoo Squeek, The Monster of Innocence Kit gently supports children as they explore feelings of shyness, hesitation and social confidence through story and emotional connection.

Meet Squeek, a monster who lives inside a cosy bubble. From there, he dreams of doing amazing things making new friends, climbing great mountains and even flying to the moon.

Through the picture book The Monster in the Bubble, children are encouraged to reflect on their own experiences with fear, confidence and trying something new learning that growth often begins just beyond their comfort zone. The WorryWoo – Squeek, The Monster of Innocence Kit offers a compassionate way to support children as they build social confidence helping them take small, brave steps beyond their bubble and discover the joy of new experiences.
