Their name
Your child is the hero: their name appears in the story and in the narration.
Two houses, a divided heart
Sound familiar?Big changes
That lost little face every time they switch houses...
The two nests
What you’re living
Since the separation they go from one house to the other and struggle: they miss the one who is not there, get muddled and sometimes feel guilty for loving both.
The emotional layer
What your child practices
Your little one understands they can have two nests and the same love in both, without having to choose
The main character lives between two houses and something in them splits: when with one, they miss the other. They discover that some birds have two nests, and in both they are warm and safe. They learn they do not have to choose a nest or love one more: in both houses they are loved, in both they have their place. Switching nests stops being a loss and becomes going from one home to another home.
How it’s personalized
It’s not a generic story with a name on top. Each answer really changes something in the tale:
Their age (2-3 or 4-6)
The text adapts: shorter, concrete sentences for little ones; a touch more nuance for older kids.
What they love
Their interests (dinosaurs, the sea, trains…) weave into the story so they stay hooked.
The situation you live
You pick the exact moment that triggers the overwhelm at home: the story starts there, not in a generic example.
How they show the feeling
Whether they shout, drop to the floor or shut down: the hero lives it in a similar way, so they recognise themselves.
The situation you live, for example: mum and dad live in different houses · it is time to switch from one house to the other · they miss one parent when with the other · they get muddled about where each of their things is · they feel they love one more and blame themselves.
The phrase they keep
«I have two nests. In both I am loved. I do not have to choose.»
How this Moment is built
We do not apply a universal arc. This situation has a specific narrative recipe: Change and belonging.
- 1
Chosen situation
Two houses, a divided heart
- 2
Skill
Your little one understands they can have two nests and the same love in both, without having to choose
- 3
Need
We read behaviour as a signal and identify the need this recipe may support, without turning that working hypothesis into a diagnosis.
- 4
Tilo recipe
Change and belonging. Names the change truthfully, lets mixed feelings coexist, shows what connection remains and offers a concrete role or ritual. The ending neither erases the loss nor promises that everything will stay the same.

Shared anchors
The phrase shown in the catalogue is “I have two nests. In both I am loved. I do not have to choose.”. The final recipe also fixes the adult phrase, child phrase, main response and home practice.

Complete Moment
The same recipe coordinates the illustrated story, narration, song, activity and family guide.
Five pieces, one consistent message
The anchors are checked across all five pieces. If one changes, the complete Moment is reviewed so it never gives mixed instructions.
The pedagogical why
After a separation, children adjust better with predictable routines in both homes, consistency between the adults and, above all, without being caught in loyalty conflicts. They need explicit permission to love both.
