The purpose is for very young children to gain a gentle understanding about what bullying means and what they should do if they feel they are being treated this way. Using a classic fairy tale and the use of toys we are able to convey this in an age appropriate fun and friendly way. It is also important that small children understand the difference between a joke, or friendly teasing, and actual bullying.
