Synopsis: When Chester the raccoon is reluctant to go to kindergarten for the first time, his mother teaches him a secret way to carry her love with him.

Craft ideas:

  • Trace your hands for a bookmark. Decorate it as a Kissing Hand for someone special.
  • Draw a picture or write a story about a time that you did something you were nervous about (your first sleepover?) what did you do?
