Worry Doll Wisdom
October 1, 2009 Posted by The Wanna Have Fun Hen
Every week I go to the library and check out about 15 children’s books to read at night to my children. Well this week, one of the books, Silly Billy by Anthony Browne, had a big impact, quite by accident, with our family. This book is about a little boy who worries a lot. His grandmother gives him some worry dolls to put under his pillow. The story explains that you are suppose to give each doll one of your worries and they will do the worrying for you while you sleep. When we were done reading, my son asked me if we could make some worry dolls. This surprised me. I asked him if he worried about things and he said he did. I had no idea he worried and of course this worried me. You know how us moms can be, I flew into a panic that my son had anxiety issues. After I calmed down, we all agreed to make worry dolls the next day.
