Boy with Tourettes syndrome. Explaining what he wishes other people would understand on the first day of school to his class. Explain what tics are. A tic is an uncontrolled sudden, repetitive movement or sound that can be hard to control. Tics involving involve movements are called motor tics. Tics involving sounds are called vocal tics. Tics can be either simple or complex. The type of tics a person has may change over time. How often tics happen also may change. Tics often come and go and can get worse when a person is stressed or anxious. It's perfectly normal to worry that a tic may never go away. Fortunately, that's not usually the case. Most tics are temporary. They tend to not last more than 3 months at a time. Many times, people with a tic can think that their tic is the worst one ever. Of course it isn't, but it's still a concern for many people with tics. And those worries can cause unnecessary feelings of embarrassment and actually make the tic worse. Nobody wants to make tics worse, but is there any way to make them better? While you can't cure tics, you can take some easy steps to lessen their impact: Don't focus on it. If you know you have a tic, forget about it. Concentrating on it just makes it worse. Try to avoid stress-filled situations as much as you can — stress only makes tics worse. Get enough sleep. Being tired can makes tics worse. So make sure to get a full night's rest! Let it out! Holding back a tic can just turn it into a ticking bomb, waiting to explode. Have you ever felt a cough coming on and tried to avoid it? Didn't work out so well, did it? Chances are it was much worse. Tics are very similar. A tic? What tic? If a friend of yours has a tic, don't call attention to it. Chances are your friend knows the tic is there. Pointing it out only makes the person think about it more.

In the quiet village of Lumina, the stars in the sky glimmered brighter than anywhere else in the world. Legend said it was because of a magical lantern kept in the center of the village, which absorbed the light of falling stars to keep darkness at bay. The lantern was cared for by the Star-Gatherer, an elderly woman named Miren, who was the only one who knew how to collect the falling stars. One day, Miren’s lantern began to dim, and the village feared that the stars might stop shining. Miren, too old to climb the Starry Peak where the brightest stars fell, sought help. A curious and brave child named Alina volunteered to go. She had a secret: she had always talked to the stars and believed they listened. Armed with a tiny shard of starlight given to her by Miren, Alina embarked on her journey. Along the way, she encountered challenges: a mischievous wind that tried to blow her off course, a grumpy mountain spirit guarding the path, and a river of glowing water that demanded a toll of kindness to cross. Alina’s courage and compassion turned each challenge into an ally. The wind carried her higher, the spirit gave her a map of the peak, and the river gave her glowing water to refill the lantern. When she reached the summit, Alina found the largest, most radiant star ready to fall. She whispered to it, asking for its light to save her village. The star replied, "If you promise to share my light with the world, I will fill your lantern." Alina agreed, and the lantern was restored, shining brighter than ever. When she returned to the village, the lantern’s light not only kept the darkness away but also allowed the stars to be seen in every corner of the world.

A positive mindset book for kids

The smell of boiled crawfish filled the Louisiana kitchen, mixing with steam rising from the big silver pot. The wooden table was covered in newspaper, already stained with seasoning, and piled high with bright red crawfish, steaming potatoes, and golden corn. Gage sat on his knees, eyes wide as he stared at the mound of crawfish in front of him. His little brother wiggled in his high chair, smacking the tray while Daddy leaned back with a grin, beer in hand. Momma rolled up her sleeves. “Alright, cher, time to learn how to peel a crawfish.” Gage hesitated. “What if I mess up?” Momma laughed, grabbing a fat crawfish. “Ain’t no wrong way, long as you get the meat out. But I’ll show you the right way.” She held the crawfish up. “First, grab it where the head and tail meet—right here. Now twist.” With a quick motion, she popped off the head. “Some folks suck the head for the good juices.” Gage gagged. “Ew, no way!” Daddy chuckled. “More for me, then!” Momma shook her head, smiling. “Alright, suit yourself. Now, pinch the end of the tail, squeeze a little, and pull.” She slid out the perfect piece of meat and dipped it in butter. “See? Easy.” Gage copied her, his fingers fumbling at first—twist, pinch, pull. Out came the juicy meat. “I did it!” Momma clapped. “That’s my boy! Now try it.” He dipped it in the butter and took a bite. His face lit up. “Mmm! That’s good!” His little brother babbled, reaching for the pile. Daddy laughed. “Looks like we got another crawfish lover.” The kitchen filled with laughter as they peeled and ate, passing corn and potatoes around. Gage wiped his hands and reached for another. “Momma, I think I’m getting good at this.” Momma ruffled his hair. “Told you, cher. Crawfish season ain’t just about eatin’. It’s about family.” And that night, under the warm glow of their Cajun kitchen, Gage became a true crawfish peeler.
