One morning, Liko decided it was time to share his knowledge. He packed a small bag with just a bowl and a cozy blanket. Waving goodbye to his friends, the birds and the trees, he began his journey with a heart full of joy.

Liko starts his journey with simple belongings, saying goodbye.

Liko walked and walked until he found a village. The people there were arguing and not sharing. Liko sat down, and with a warm voice, he told a story about sharing being like planting a seed that grows into a big, fruit-filled tree.

Liko teaches villagers about sharing, using a story.

In the next town, Liko saw kids being mean to each other. He showed them a game called 'Kindness Tag,' where instead of touching, you shared a compliment. Soon, laughter filled the air as the kids played and learned to be kind.

Liko introduces 'Kindness Tag' to teach kids about kindness.

Liko reached a city where everyone was in a hurry. He gently rang a bell, and as people listened, they slowed down. 'When you rush,' Liko explained, 'you miss the beauty of now.' And so the people learned to be mindful and enjoy every moment.

One evening, Liko came to a forest where animals were scared and hiding. He sat down, closed his eyes, and breathed in peace. The animals felt his kindness and came out to listen. Liko taught them about living together without fear.
