Cheery’s Affirmation Adventure
Lesson: Cheery showed Gus that using positive affirmations and a cheerful attitude can turn a bad day into a brighter one.
There lived a friend named Cheery. He was known for his cheerful spirit and his ability to spread positivity wherever he went.
One sunny day, Cheery noticed his friend, Grumpy Gus, sitting alone on a park bench with a frown on his face.
“Hey, Gus,” Cheery greeted him with his usual bright smile. “What’s got you feeling so glum today?” Gus sighed. “I just had a bad day, Cheery. Everything seems to be going wrong.”
Cheery sat down next to Gus and said, “I have an idea, Gus. Let’s go on an Affirmation Adventure!” Gus looked puzzled. “An Affirmation Adventure? What’s that?”
Cheery explained, “It’s a journey where we use positive affirmations to turn our frowns into smiles! We’ll say kind words to ourselves to change our attitudes.”
With a shrug, Gus agreed to give it a try. They closed their eyes, took a deep breath, and began repeating affirmations like, “I am capable,” “I am strong,” and “I can handle challenges.”
At first, Gus felt a little silly, but Cheery’s enthusiasm was contagious. Slowly but surely, Gus started to feel a shift within him. His frown began to fade, and he felt a glimmer of hope. Cheery encouraged him, “See, Gus? Positive affirmations can help us feel better about ourselves and our day.”
As they continued their Affirmation Adventure, Gus found himself smiling. He realized that even on tough days, he had the power to change his outlook. Gus thanked Cheery for the adventure, and they both walked away from the park bench with smiles on their faces, ready to face the day with a more positive attitude.

Two best friends, Cheery and Joy, loved spending time together. One sunny afternoon, Joy wasn’t feeling very joyful because she had a pile of homework to do.
Joy looked at her books with a sigh. “I don’t want to do my homework, Cheery. It’s so boring!”
Cheery, always ready to bring cheer, thought for a moment. “Let’s make it fun, Joy! We can turn this homework time into a Homework Happiness party!”
Joy raised an eyebrow. “A party with homework? How?” Cheery grinned. “We’ll start by decorating your study space with colorful posters and stickers. We can even wear funny hats and play cheerful music.”
Joy’s eyes lit up with curiosity. “That sounds…different.” They got to work, making Joy’s study space bright and fun. They added colorful decorations and turned on some happy tunes.
As Joy started her homework, Cheery said, “Let’s make a game out of it. See how quickly you can finish each task. We’ll time it and try to beat our own records.” Joy giggled. “This is more fun than I expected!”
Cheery cheered her on, “You’re doing great, Joy! You’re turning your homework into a happy adventure.” They took short breaks for quick dance sessions and enjoyed snacks together. Before they knew it, Joy had completed all her homework with a smile.
Joy hugged Cheery. “Thanks for making homework so much fun!” Cheery beamed. “See, Joy? With a little cheer and creativity, even homework can be a happy experience!”

Cheery's Laughter Yoga Adventure
Lesson: Cheery showed his friends that laughter yoga and exercise can release happy endorphins, making them feel cheerful and full of energy.
Cheery was known for his cheerful ways. He loved helping his friends discover the joy in everyday activities, especially when it came to staying healthy.
One bright morning, Cheery gathered his friends at the park. “Hey, everyone! Today, we’re going on a special adventure: a Laughter Yoga session!”
His friend, Sunny, asked, “Laughter Yoga? What’s that?”
Cheery explained with a grin, “It’s a fun way to exercise by laughing! When we laugh, our bodies release something called ‘endorphins.’ They’re like tiny happiness boosters that make us feel cheerful!”
The friends sat in a circle as Cheery led the session. He began with a deep breath and said, “Let’s take a deep breath in, and as we breathe out, let’s all give a big, hearty laugh!”
They all laughed together, and it sounded like a room full of giggles and chuckles. Cheery encouraged, “Now, let’s pretend we’re laughing like different animals. First, laugh like a monkey!”
The friends laughed like playful monkeys, swinging their arms and making funny faces. Next, they laughed like roaring lions, quacking ducks, and even buzzing bees. They couldn’t stop laughing!
After the laughter yoga session, Jolly Jake felt energized. “I feel so cheerful, Cheery! What’s in those ‘endorphins’ again?” Cheery explained, “Endorphins are like little happiness helpers. When we laugh and exercise, our bodies release them, and that’s why we feel so happy and cheerful after.”
The friends left the park with smiles on their faces, feeling more cheerful and energized than before.

His friend, Sunny, asked, “What are you making, Cheery?” Cheery replied with a grin, “I’m making a get-well card for Rosie. When someone is sick, a cheerful card can help them feel better.”
Sunny wanted to help too. She grabbed some crayons and joined in. They made a card filled with happy drawings and kind words. When they finished, Cheery said, “Let’s add some jokes to make Rosie laugh!”
They wrote funny jokes inside the card. Cheery read one aloud, and they both laughed. Cheery placed the card in a bright envelope and addressed it to Rosie. “Now, let’s send this card to Rosie so she knows we care.”
A few days later, Rosie called Cheery. She sounded happy. “Thank you for the card, Cheery and Sunny! It made my day so much brighter.” Cheery beamed with joy. “I’m glad you liked it, Rosie. We wanted to bring some cheer to your day.”
The get-well card had worked its magic, bringing cheer and smiles to Rosie’s heart.
