ONE-DAY BOUNCE-BACK CHALLENGE Families and homeschoolers, take five minutes today to talk about resilience. Ask your child: What helps you bounce back when something feels difficult? Draw it, write it, or talk about it together. Then ask: Who or what helps you keep moving forward? This activity is inspired by The Bayou Bounce, a children's story about family, Louisiana culture, music, empathy, and learning to keep moving forward.

DAY 1: BOUNCE BACK Resilience is a skill children practice, not a trait they are born with. Today's activity takes five minutes: ask a child to draw or write one thing that helps them keep going after a hard moment. This is Day 1 of the free 3-Day Bounce-Back Challenge, inspired by my children's book The Bayou Bounce. If you work with families, educators, or care teams, the challenge is free to share. Start the story here: https://a.co/d/02WHDSfd
Day 2
DAY 2: FEED THE STORY Family traditions are a resilience asset. Today: choose one food, recipe, song, or tradition that brings people together, then ask who taught it to you and what memory it holds. Day 2 of the free 3-Day Bounce-Back Challenge, inspired by The Bayou Bounce. Share it with a family or classroom that would enjoy it. https://a.co/d/02WHDSfd
Day 3
DAY 3: MAKE A SOLUTION Problem-solving is where resilience becomes agency. Today: name one small problem in your home or neighborhood and draw one solution. That completes the free 3-Day Bounce-Back Challenge, inspired by The Bayou Bounce. Thank you to everyone who joined.
