A Real Parent's Story
My shy kid finally talked to a camel
“My 3-year-old is painfully shy. At the petting zoo, a camel sniffed her hand and she said Soft! First word to a non-family member in months.”
Read full story
We moved to Marrakech last year and my youngest has struggled with the transition. At the zoos petting area, a camel ambled over and gently nuzzled her palm. She said, Soft, Mama. The camel is soft. She talked about that camel for a week.
