For the child who wants to know if their bed is coming

Moving house is a lot of grown-up fuss around one child-sized question: does my bed come, and my bear. In this story your child, by name, packs one box that is theirs, rides with it on their lap the whole way, and finds their bed already made in the new corner with the bear in the right spot. Watch it in the weeks around the move, and the new house already has their things in it.

  • Your child in every scene, made from the details you choose
  • One box they pack themselves and never let go of
  • The bed question answered by seeing it, not by promises
  • The marks on the doorframe come too
  • Finn hides three times, with a question at the end

Why we made this one

A preschooler's real question about moving is not sentimental, it is practical, and it is about ownership. They frequently do not understand that the furniture is coming, or that their toys are coming, and a toy inside a taped box has, to them, simply gone. That is why every reassurance in this film is an image rather than a sentence.

So the child packs one box themselves, decides each thing that goes in it, and keeps it on their own lap in the car. And when they ask whether the bed comes, nobody says yes. They go outside and watch the bed go up the ramp into the truck, because at this age that is the only kind of answer that lands.

At the far end the bedroom goes up first and goes up the same. The advice everywhere else is to surprise them with an exciting new room, and the research says the opposite: sameness is what settles a small child, and novelty is what unsettles them.

It is honest about the ending too. The film finishes on a first morning, not on a settled life.

Three moments from the story

Every scene is made from scratch for your child, so these are written here rather than shown.

My box

One box that is theirs, with a big wobbly star on the side so it can be found in any pile anywhere.

Does my bed come?

The real question, and instead of an answer they go outside and watch the bed go all the way up the ramp.

Already made

The new room is empty and strange, except for the bed, already in the corner, with the bear sitting exactly where it always sits.

Questions parents ask

When should we watch it?
In the week or two before the move, and again in the first few days after. The second watch is often the one that does the work, once the new house is real.
Our child keeps saying they want to go home, in the new house.
That is ordinary and it can last weeks. The story does not treat it as a problem to be argued with, and it ends on a first morning rather than pretending everybody is settled.
Does it work for an apartment, or a move to another country?
Yes. The spine is one box, one bed and one goodbye, none of which depend on the kind of home or the distance. A van works as well as a truck.
We are moving after a separation.
This story stays gentle and does not touch that directly. Two Homes is our story for a child living between two houses, and the two work well together.
Who is Finn?
Finn is our little fox. He hides three times in this story, and at the end the film asks how many times you spotted him, then shows where he was.
How long is it and when does it arrive?
About two and a half minutes. It is ready within 24 hours, usually much sooner, and you get an email the moment it is done.
What does it cost?
$14.99 USD, one time. During launch it is $9.99. Prices outside the United States are shown in your own currency.
