When a friend has a toy you want

Mar 5, 2026 · 7 min · Ep 9

Sometimes, a friend has a toy that you want, but you can't take it out of their hand! In this story, Javi and his friend Oscar learn that if someone has something they want, they can either wait or choose something else. 

Grown-ups, try this at home!
