Faith is always full of energy and loves to say "yes" to new opportunities, but she's setting herself up for a disaster! Over- committed and stressed out, Faith must learn to prioritize, delegate, and practice self-care. Will she be able to manage the demands without breaking her commitments? Can you? Understand stress and learn to balance work and rest with our MVP Kids. Faith and her best friend Olivia are excited to be in the drama club's spring play! Faith has landed the lead role and eagerly signed up to help with every opportunity from set building to collecting costume pieces and props. Faith soon discovers that being involved in too many extra commitments is overwhelming! She rarely has time to be a kid, spend time with her friends, or do the things that make her feel relaxed and happy. Bad dreams, poor sleep, and habits of nail biting and hair twirling all point to the fact that Faith is stressed out! Her mom explains the skills of delegating, prioritizing, and organizing her tasks, and friends and family show support by offering their own time to help her complete her commitments. A bit of mindfulness and self-care recharge her for the busiest days, and she learns the value of balancing work with rest.
