“My Never Get Lost Guide”
Just like Toula, you too will be able to find your way home!
Inside this downloadable PDF are fun ways for you to select your personal landmarks, just like Toula’s mother did for her. Kids can even make their own maps with photos and drawings too!




Every child deserves a place where they feel safe, loved, and cared for —wherever that may be.
That’s why we’re dedicated to helping families, children, educators, and communities by providing the knowledge and tools to guide children in safely finding their way home.
It’s our mission in Toula the Toucan Finds Her Way Home and the included digital Parent-Teacher Guide.
