Imagine Empathy

Create a story centered around an imaginary friend who’s going through a tough time.

Empathy is an important emotional skill to develop from a young age. Imagine a friend, who could be a real person, an animal, or even an extraterrestrial. They’re facing a challenging situation. Write a story of how you interact with them through this time, how you offer comfort, and help them navigate their feelings. This prompt encourages children to put themselves in someone else’s shoes and develop an understanding of empathy and compassion.
