The Busy in Me: When Plans Change by Lisa Vivian is a warm, reassuring children’s book about what happens when a child has pictured the whole day in their mind — and suddenly the plan changes.
When a much-anticipated playdate at the park is cancelled because of rain, our young character isn’t ready to simply move on. While his friend Maya quickly begins thinking about what they can do instead, he needs a little more time for his feelings to catch up.
With patience, understanding and one small next step, he discovers that a changed plan doesn’t have to mean a ruined day — and sometimes the unexpected can bring a different kind of fun.
Part of The Busy in Me Series from My Granny’s Bookshelf, this gentle story helps children explore:
- changes in plans and routines
- difficult transitions
- disappointment and big feelings
- emotional regulation and flexibility
- the need for extra processing time
- finding a manageable “next step”
Created for children who may experience ADHD, sensory sensitivities, neurodivergent traits, strong emotions — or simply find unexpected change difficult — When Plans Change never defines the child by a diagnosis. Instead, it helps children feel understood while giving parents, caregivers and educators simple ways to support them.
Includes supportive pages for both grown-ups and children, with practical ideas for navigating changes calmly and compassionately.
Because sometimes the busy feeling just needs a little time to catch up.
