I Tried Something New

My name is {{childName}}. This is a story about a time I tried something new. New things can feel big. I was not sure how it would go — and I gave it a go anyway.

I felt unsure at first. Lots of people feel unsure before something new — that feeling is normal. I tried anyway. Trying is the brave part. It matters more than getting it perfect.

After I tried, I knew something I did not know before. Maybe I liked the new thing, or maybe I did not — both are fine. Either way, the new thing is not a mystery anymore. Next time something new comes along, I will remember that I am someone who has a go.

Trying something new took courage, and I did it. The people who care about me are proud of me. I can be proud of myself, too. Hooray for me!
