Made For This adopts a playful yet profound approach to addressing fear and anxiety through the story of a young otter named Ozzie.
Ozzie has a terrifying fear of drowning and being separated from his Mama. He faces the same challenges many children face, such as comparison, feeling overwhelmed, and fearing inadequacy. With the support of his Mama and his new friend, Chip, Ozzie learns to confront his fear with compassion and kindness, discovering techniques to soothe himself and develop important coping skills.
Made For This provides a non-direct way for caregivers, teachers, and children to engage in conversation about fears, fostering an environment of open dialogue, acceptance, and self-compassion.
