Bangalee

A tidy kritter tries to convince his messy friends to clean up their act before the dreaded grunk shows up — but will they listen in time?

For the kid who needs a nudge (or ten) to pick up their toys, this is a gentle push toward tidying up wrapped in a story, not a lecture.

• Big idea: Cleaning up isn't just about neatness — it's about looking out for each other before trouble arrives.
• Vibes: Playful, a little spooky, cautionary in the best bedtime-story way.

• are working on cleaning up after themselves
• enjoy stories with a looming, mysterious threat
• respond well to a gentle cautionary tale
• like to root for a character trying to convince others

• Story & problem-solving: What did Bangalee want the other kritters to do before the grunk arrived?
• Feelings & empathy: How do you think Bangalee felt when his friends didn't listen to him?
• Real-life connection: Do you ever forget to clean up your room? What helps you remember?
• Imagination: What do you think the grunk looks like?
• Story & problem-solving: What do you think might happen if the kritters don't clean up in time?
