Putty Plains · The big-feelings friend
Boom
"Big feelings need soft landings."
Boom is loud, generous and a little chaotic — the friend who shows children that anger, frustration and bigness aren't bad, they just need somewhere soft to land. He stomps, he laughs, he shakes the dust off, and then he sits down for a hug. On the Putty Plains, every roar is welcome and every wobble ends with someone catching you.
