Here is the story about how he learned to overcome his fears and explore the world.
Max the robin loved his family’s nest. It was small and cozy, and he never wanted to leave. However, his family knew he had to learn to explore the world around him. Would Max be able to overcome his fears and leave the nest?
Max loved spending time with his mother, father, and siblings in their nest. The nest was small, but it was comfortable, and the only home he knew.
One day, his parents noticed that Max and his siblings were getting too big for the nest.
“The kids are growing so fast! I think it’s time they learned to leave the nest,” his father said.
Rex’s mother agreed and started giving the kids flying lessons that day. However, Max refused to leave the nest even for a minute.
“I don’t care about flying! I’m not leaving this nest!” Max announced.
His parents and siblings started to get worried. All the birds had to learn how to fly because it was a rule of nature. How would Max learn to survive without leaving the nest?
His family came up with a plan to coax Max out of the nest. First, his siblings showed off their flying lessons and told Max about the amazing things they saw outside of the nest.
Next, his parents brought Max little souvenirs from their explorations to show him what he was missing.
Max started to get curious and wanted to see where to get the juicy berries that his parents found.
“Those were the best berries I ever had, and I must find them again,” Max said.
Max got more and more interested in exploring the world around him. He finally agreed to take his mom’s flying lessons and step out of the nest.
The scared little robin took his first trip to a nearby berry bush to search for the same delicious berries his parents found. He was overjoyed to find them and spent the entire afternoon exploring the amazing forest.
“Wow! I don’t why I was so scared before to leave the nest,” Max said.
Max and his family continued to grow and find new and amazing things to discover.
Moral: Don’t be afraid to leave your "comfortable " nest and explore the world around you.
