Lesson 2: When Families Grow Story: The Best Big Sister Welcoming a new baby can be exciting, but it can also change familiar relationships, routines and the way family life feels. Through Zara’s experience of becoming a big sister, children explore how a positive change can still involve feelings of loss. They learn that Zara can love her baby brother while missing time alone with Mum or Dad, feeling frustrated or wishing some things could be as they were before. The lesson gives children permission to recognise mixed feelings without seeing them as unkind or ungrateful.
