Feeling left out
I just found out that there’s a party happening in my child’s class, complete with entertainment, and it seems there’s no limit on the number of guests. Unfortunately, my child hasn’t received an invitation. It really makes me sad to see this happen to a 5-year-old!

In the meantime, maybe you could plan a fun activity or playdate to lift your child’s spirits!
