Send a pocket hug along for the day.

The idea at the heart of Lola's and Nolan's stories, ready to print and cut out at your kitchen table.

How it works

Four hearts. Keep one, give one.

Print the sheet, cut along the dotted lines, and tuck a heart into a backpack, lunchbox, or coat pocket.

  1. Print the sheet on plain paper or cardstock.
  2. Let your child pick a heart and color it in.
  3. Fold it small and tuck it into a pocket before the day begins.
  4. Keep one for yourself, so you are carrying the same hug.

Tell us where to send new printables and event dates, and the sheet unlocks right here.
