Meet Popsi, Opal and Pippa
Popsi the Penguin
Popsi notices possibility when things feel uncertain. He can feel hopeful, worried or unsure, and does not always have the answer.
Opal the Owl
Opal likes to pause, ask questions and look from more than one point of view. She can misunderstand, listen again and change her mind.
Pippa the Parrot
Pippa is lively, expressive, witty and wonderfully chatty. She often remembers one more thing, notices quieter voices and never rushes anyone to speak.
More friends to meet
Willow the Whale
Willow makes space for feelings and listens without rushing. She has feelings of her own too, alongside a gently understated sense of humour.
Arlo the Anole
Arlo is small, curious, energetic and slightly cheeky. Discovery draws him in, even when he feels afraid; sometimes one little look, one bit of help or one more wait is enough
Tilly and Tully — Twin Turtles
Tilly and Tully are twins with a close bond. Tilly looks for the next manageable step; Tully listens a little longer and often finds another way.
