This isn’t just a journal. It’s a back-and-forth Hide-and-Seek game of connection that turns ordinary days into a secret adventure of laughter, reading, and togetherness.
Hide the journal, find it, write back, and repeat! Little ones can draw; bigger kids (and grown-ups) write back. Read aloud together when it’s found. Each turn lifts everyone up and helps make encouragement a natural habit.
Children thrive on connection. This journal creates simple moments where they can be truly involved with someone they love, whether a parent, grandparent, sibling, or friend. They leave notes or drawings, receive replies, and feel seen. As they read the messages (aloud together or on their own) and write back, they naturally strengthen writing and communication skills and build confidence, knowing their words are noticed, valued, and answered.
Habit helper: Research suggests new habits form in about 21 days. This journal includes 42 pages (+2 bonus), about 21 back-and-forth swaps, so by the time you finish, encouraging each other feels natural.
