Helping Children Face Fear with Courage and Confidence
Welcome
Everyone feels scared sometimes.
That is part of life.
However, being scared does not mean you are weak.
Being brave means trying, even when something feels hard.
You are stronger than you think.

Fear is a normal feeling.
Everyone feels it.
Sometimes, you may feel scared at school.
You may feel scared at the doctor.
