Zuri's Brave Star Sky printable chart with fifteen blank stars on a night sky to colour in for brave moments

About this activity

Courage is easier to grow when a child can see it. This sheet turns every brave moment — a first sleepover, a new food, speaking up, sleeping with the light off — into a star that gets coloured in.

It follows Zuri, who learns that the smallest light still counts. By the end of a week, an empty sky is full, and your child can point to exactly why.

What's on the page

  • Fifteen large stars to colour, one per brave moment
  • A night-sky panel that fills up as the week goes on
  • A 'My bravest moment' writing and drawing space
  • Simple instructions a new reader can follow alone

How to use it

  1. Step 1

    Agree what counts

    Decide together at the start of the week. Trying counts — it does not have to go well to earn a star.

  2. Step 2

    Colour it in straight away

    The star means more when it is coloured in the moment, not at the end of the day.

  3. Step 3

    Let them narrate

    Ask your child to tell you the story of each star. Retelling is what makes the courage stick.

  4. Step 4

    Finish with the drawing box

    At the end of the week, draw the bravest moment of all and stick it somewhere visible.
