The start of a new year is the perfect time for families to dream, imagine, and set meaningful intentions together. And no Breadcrumbz character loves planning for the future more than Whitney Wheat—the calm, thoughtful friend who believes that when families dream together, they grow together.

Whitney knows that every child has hopes tucked inside their hearts—new things they want to learn, adventures they want to try, friendships they want to build, and ways they want to grow. But sometimes kids need a fun, creative way to bring those dreams out into the open.

That’s why Whitney Wheat invites your family to try something special this year:

Host a Family Vision Board Night!

A Family Vision Board Night is an easy, playful, together-time activity that helps kids (and parents!) think about their goals for the year—big or small.

Whether a child wants to try a new hobby, practice kindness, bake new recipes, or make one new friend, a vision board turns these dreams into pictures they can see every day.

Whitney says:
“When you picture your goals, you’re already on your way to reaching them.”

How to Create Your Family Vision Board Night

1. Gather Supplies

Grab magazines, markers, scissors, glue, stickers—anything your kids will love using.
Whitney recommends adding a few sparkly touches (because imagining new dreams should always feel magical ✨).

2. Ask Dream-Starting Questions

Kids sometimes need inspiration! Try questions like:

• “What is something new you want to learn this year?”

• “How do you want to be a better friend?”

• “What big dream makes you excited?”

• “What adventure do you hope to try?”

Whitney encourages kids to think about goals that make them feel brave, happy, and proud.

3. Cut, Glue, and Imagine

Let everyone create their own section—or make one giant family board!
Encourage kids to include:

• Activities they want to try

• Books they want to read

• Places they want to visit

• Traits they want to grow (confidence, kindness, courage)

Whitney Wheat says:
“There’s no wrong way to dream.”

4. Share and Celebrate

When everyone is done, take turns showing off the boards.
This builds connection and helps kids talk about their hopes in a safe, supportive space.

5. Display Your Dreams

Hang your vision board somewhere visible—maybe the kitchen, hallway, or a child’s bedroom door.
Seeing their goals each day keeps kids motivated, curious, and confident.

Why This Activity Matters

A Family Vision Board Night helps children:

• Practice goal setting

• Strengthen creativity and imagination

• Build confidence

• Feel supported by their family

• Understand that dreams grow over time, just like wheat in a field

And for parents, it’s a beautiful opportunity to learn what matters most to your child—and how to nurture their dreams throughout the year.

Whitney calls it:
“A night of hope, color, and connection.
