Top Tips on how to make friends -
Pom-Bear has made some lovely new friends in Pom-Bear land, Lilly the clever fox and Criss-Cross the cheeky croc. Yet making new friends can be tough, so Pom-Bear has combined forces with Beatbullying and Kidscape to create some helpful tips for you.
It is not always easy to make friends and some children can spoil the fun for everyone and may make you quite unhappy. Therefore, this month Pom-Bear dedicating his time to help you make friends and speak up if you are being bullied. He is also donating 5p to Beatbullying for every original multipack sold in November to help children across the UK.
Pom-Bear encourages you to be a good friend by following his example – he is always smiling, friendly and kind. He keeps secrets and shares his snacks too. Criss-Cross and Lilly are always involved in his adventures and games. He listens to them if they have a problem and then tries to help them out.
