A weighted dragon for Katalaya to find comfort during her move

Katalaya, 10 years old, MI

Wish submitted by:

Orchards Children's Services

Katalaya is the oldest of four siblings, all paced in care. She enjoys taking the lead and spending quality time with her younger brothers and sisters. Katalaya loves reading, especially stories about dragons and fairy tales. During family visits, she often shares her excitement about her latest book or the imaginary worlds she has been exploring.

Katalaya is a bright and imaginative child who experiences big feelings and has a special love for dragons. Unfortunately, she will be moving to a new placement, one where she won't be with her siblings. To help her navigate this transition, she has a weighted stuffed animal that will provide comfort and a safe space as she adjusts to her new home. This cuddly companion will be there to support Katalaya, helping her regulate her emotions on challenging days and offering a sense of security during her journey.
