What are best friends?

Best friends are people who enjoy being together and help each other have fun.

Best friends are like your favorite toys, you pick them up when you want to play, and you always know they’ll be there for you. They laugh with you when something silly happens, and they stick by you when things get tricky.

For example, if you're playing hide-and-seek and you’re the one hiding, your best friend might find you first, but then they'll pretend not to see you so you can win. That's how best friends show they care!

When you have a best friend, it feels like having someone who knows all your secrets. You can share your favorite snacks, play the same games over and over, or even just sit together in silence, and that’s okay too.

Sometimes, best friends don’t always agree on everything. But that's normal! What makes them special is that they still want to be together, no matter what.
