Once upon a time in Country where imagination could run free. We find ourselves in the fairytale of tiny feet and magical hands. The story comes alive with excitement, as the Bush Babies filled with curiosity, take their first steps toward a new path, led by the Praying Mantis. The babies climbed upon the back of the magical creature, and it spread its vibrant wings, whisking them away on a journey of a lifetime. With the magical Praying Mantis, the protector of Country, they travelled through space and time to explore the unknown hidden tales that exist all around us. It whispers in the magic of fairytales to guide us to explore far beyond our imagination. An invitation to embrace the magic within the babies to capture nature, reminding them not to fear, but to sense the joy of Country in miniature miracles.
