For the toddler who bites when the feeling gets too big
Almost every toddler bites at some point. It is not badness, it is a feeling with no words fast enough to carry it. In this story your child, by name, feels the biting feeling arrive, and a grown-up gets there first with one steady line, a hand to put up, words to say, and something they are allowed to bite. Watch it together, and the line and the hand become theirs.
- Your child in every scene, made from the details you choose
- Nothing lands: the bite is stopped and the friend is never hurt
- One line to borrow, said the same way every time
- A hand up and a chewy on a hook, which travel anywhere
- Finn hides three times, with a question at the end

Why we made this one
Almost every toddler bites at some point, and it peaks between two and three. It is not badness and it is not a warning sign. It is a strong feeling arriving in a body with no words fast enough to carry it, usually when a child is tired, crowded or hungry, which is why it so often happens ten minutes before snack.
So nobody in this story is called a biter. The bite never lands. A grown-up is close enough to put a hand in the gap and say one short thing without shouting: I will not let you bite, teeth are for food. Then the child gets the two things that actually change what happens next. Words for the moment, a flat hand and back up please. And a legal job for the mouth, a chewy on a hook by the door and something crunchy at the table.
The end is the part to watch for. The pressing feeling comes back on another day, and your child goes to the hook on their own. Nobody says a word.
Three moments from the story
Every scene is made from scratch for your child, so these are written here rather than shown.
The hand between
A grown-up gets there first, quick and calm. I see you want to bite. I will not let you. Teeth are for food. No shouting, just sure.
Back up please
The words your child did not have yet, handed over and tried out. A flat hand, three words, and the friend backs up. It works.
All by themselves
Another day, the same feeling, and this time they walk to the hook and the chewy on their own. A grown-up sees it and gives one small nod.

Questions parents ask
- Does a child get bitten in the story?
- No. The bite is stopped before it lands, the friend is never hurt, and there is nothing on screen that a small child would find frightening or worth copying.
- Is my child shamed in it?
- Never. Nobody is called a biter or naughty, nobody is sent away from the group, and there is no forced apology. The story treats biting as a feeling with nowhere to go, which is what the research says it is.
- What does it actually teach?
- Three things a family can keep using. One short line said the same way every time. A flat hand and the words back up please. And somewhere for the feeling to go: a chewy that lives on a hook and something crunchy at snack.
- What age is it for?
- Two to four, the years when biting is most common. It works just as well for a child in daycare as at home.
- 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.
