When it comes to difference, children see things differently. Retweet if you wish more adults were like this. #CBeebies

What makes you two different from each other? Everyone's Welcome

These genuine best friends know what’s important – friendship, openness & respecting each other’s differences, a lesson we can all learn from & qualities that lie at the heart of CBeebies.
