Inside every family, every classroom, and every quiet moment at home — there is a chance to notice when someone needs help. Speak Up Kid™
We don’t need to be doctors to recognize it.
We don’t need big words or grown-up training.
We only need:
– Our eyes
– Our heart
– And a voice willing to speak up
This is where Whimsky Works™ meets Eyes of Sepsis™.
The City Inside the Body (Kid-Friendly Quantum Theory)
Our body is like a busy city.
– The heart keeps the streets moving.
– The lungs bring in fresh air — like open windows.
– The brain helps everyone stay organized — like a city council.
– The immune system is like friendly helpers who protect the town.
When the body is healthy, the city lights glow.
But sometimes, the signals in the city get mixed up — and the lights start to flicker.
This is how sepsis begins.
Not loud.
Not scary.
Just quiet changes that we can learn to notice.
Meet Scoot the Bear — The Comforter
Scoot doesn’t shout.
Scoot doesn’t rush.
Scoot notices.
When a friend is quieter than usual…
When someone breathes differently…
When someone says, “I don’t feel right”…
Scoot gently says:
“Let’s tell someone we trust.
We don’t have to wait.”
Scoot teaches kids:
– Paying attention is powerful.
– Caring is courageous.
– Speaking up is love.
Meet Ms. Pinky — The Nurse / Respiratory Helper
Ms. Pinky is calm, steady, and kind.
She helps everyone breathe easier — in body and in feelings.
She teaches:
“When breathing changes, the body is asking for help.”
Children learn to notice:
– Faster breathing
– Looks more tired than usual
– Skin feels cool or clammy
– Not talking like they normally do
Not to be afraid —
but to tell a grown-up right away.
Speak Up Kid™ Moment
We teach children one simple sentence:
“Something doesn’t feel right. Can you please check?”
That sentence saves lives.
Whispers are powerful.
Whispers change everything.
The Popcorn Theory™ — Courage Pops
Courage doesn’t show up when life is easy.
It pops.
Just like popcorn.
When things get hard, scary, confusing, or surprising —
that is when our inner bravery pops out.
Not loud.
Not perfect.
Just real.
“Your bravery pops from the inside.
Even if your voice is small.”
When Things Go Wrong — Whimsky Works™ Murphy’s Law Twist
Sometimes:
– Grandma is tired
– Mom doesn’t look like herself
– A sibling is breathing differently
We don’t panic.
We notice and we speak up.
Because:
If something can go wrong…
we can still help make it go wonderfully right.
With:
– Love
– Support
– Speaking up
– Getting help quickly
What We Are Building
With Eyes of Sepsis™ + Whimsky Works™:
We are teaching kids to:
– Notice changes in themselves
– Notice changes in the people they love
– Tell a safe grown-up right away
And to know:
This is not being dramatic.
This is being caring.
Final Message
Children are not powerless.
Children are not unaware.
Children feel everything before we ever speak of it.
We are not teaching fear.
We are teaching connection.
We are teaching them to protect love.
And that is how we save lives.
One whisper at a time.
