Relationships go through 6 stages, just like how you grow from a tiny seed into a big tree, sometimes it’s fun, sometimes it’s tricky, and it all changes over time.
Like Going on a Playground Adventure
- The Spark, It's like when you first meet someone and everything feels new and exciting, like getting a brand-new toy.
- Getting Close, You start spending more time together, like playing your favorite game with your best friend every day.
- Fun Times, Things feel really good, like when you're both laughing and having the most fun on the swings.
- Trouble Time, Sometimes things get tricky, like when you argue over who gets to ride the slide first.
- Working It Out, You try to fix things, like when you agree to take turns on the swing so everyone is happy.
- Growing Together, You become really close, like best friends who know all of each other’s secrets and always have fun together.
Every relationship goes through these stages, it's just like playing a game that gets more interesting as you grow!
