do you think I can know if i'm an age regressor while almost 18? I relate to a lot of agre posts and the wants they express, but is it just the fact that I am autistic and have a lower emotional age? but then again I only feel this way on specific occasions

i think this is a very nuanced question! i knew i was an age regressor since i was about 14-15, but it's important to do a ton of research specific to yourself! many autistic folks speak about feeling age stunted, which could also be something you can look into!

i can't give you a definitive answer on anything seeing as i'm not a doctor or extensively knowledgeable on the logistics of age regression, but i do think that it'd be beneficial to try stuff out! self discovery is all about trial and error. i wish you the best on your journey and if you ever need some advice, don't feel afraid to reach out! <3

Hi miss leaf :3

My favowite animals ar foxes and whales, what are yours? :D And do you know any funfacts about it?

Ps, can I be 🦊 annon pwease? :33

hi there foxie!!! i also love foxes and whales a ton! my favorite animals are cats and jellyfish as well!

did you know the scientific name for the red fox is vulpes vulpes? i learned that from watching fantastic mr. fox (which is one of my absolute favorite movies!) foxes are also pretty solitary animals, but mama foxes usually live with about 6 babies and they are called a "skulk"! baby foxes are also born blind, deaf, and unable to walk! they are so cute and tiny ^^

did you know a baby whale can grow to be 200 pounds after only being a day old? plus, despite being the largest animal in the ocean, blue whales can't swallow anything bigger than a grapefruit! this is because they don't hunt or capture prey, but rather feed passively through krill!

Teacher leaf!! If I brought a ninja turtles backpack to daycare, would you think it was cool?? -Nico

i would think it's SO COOL!!! ninja turtles are so awesome!!! my favorite is michelangelo cause he's so silly! who's your favorite?

[little-leaf-daycare]

Miss leaf! I got a shark bed now sharkys all over it!!

🐾

wow! that is so cool!! congrats on your new sharky bed, little one! i love sharks so much!

thank you so much dear, this message warmed my heart! i'm glad you have a little safe space here <3 i absolutely love this blog! getting to talk with you and provide a helping hand all brings me so much joy! i hope you are having a nice day/night wherever you are! <3

[little-leaf-daycare]

hiii miss leaff!!!!! M noht feelin gooed :< I tink is cuz I not gitin goood seep n I dunno what yuh do bout ittt :(

-Lav

oh no, i'm so sorry you're not feeling too good darling! sleep is very important! our brains need time to rest and recharge so we can function as our best selves!

when miss leaf is struggling to get good sleep, i turn on some nice ocean sounds! or stream sounds when i wan't something a little quieter! i hug a plushie really tight and do some deep breaths until my body starts to relax!

a fun method i like to do is "turning off" my body from my toes to my head. i close my eyes and imagine turning off my toes for the night, and then my legs, and then my fingers and arms, and then my head! it's a form of mindfulness that lets you check in with your body before falling asleep to make sure you're not tense or holding any stress somewhere!

i hope you are able to get some better sleep, honey! drink lots of water, stretch a bit before you lay down, and count sheep until you drift off! <3

-🍋 anon :3

i'm sure you'll do well on your tests, sweetie! make sure to review the night before and a tiny bit in the morning to keep the information fresh in your head! but don't forget to take breaks and eat something yummy so you have lots of fuel in your body, okay?

i'm curious... what is your most favorite food? was it super yummy?

i'm glad you had a good day! you deserve it!

[little-leaf-daycare]

I found all my fun peeps even the s’mores ones!! At 5 below!! Maybe you can check there if you have one close!! I sure hope you get the ones you want!!

I’ve decided to call the giant peep plush, peepzilla! XD

He’s a world renowned baker, whose specialty is! Rainbow cloud sweet bread!!

Would you come to peepzillas cafe?? There’s tasty drinks too but that’s a different plushies job !!

oh goodness!!! there isn't a 5 below where i live, but i'm gonna go hunting for them!

and peepzilla is such a fitting name for such a big plushie! i would totally go to peepzilla's cafe and order 100 rainbow cloud sweet breads!!! peepzilla sounds super duper talented!

I like the hungry caterpillar tooo!! Me too!!!!

🎀

isn't the hungry caterpillar the best?! what foods do you like to nom on, just like the caterpillar?

[little-leaf-daycare]

hi!!

how are you?

Is it ok if I have 🦴 anon?

hi! i'm having a really great and productive day :D how are you doing? and welcome 🦴 anonie!!!

[little-leaf-daycare]

oh to have a real agere daycare!

everyone would have hooks with their names above to hang up their coats and little cubbys to put their belongings in! carers could sign their babies in or regressors could do it themslves with the help of a carer on staff! <3 it'd be such a warm, welcoming, judgement free place where everyone can safely be themslves...💭

there would be a quiet, soft and safe room for baby regressors to crawl around and play with toys! so many foam blocks to build with and stuffies to cuddle! there would be highchairs for snacks, and little inside tents for the babies that like to play alone and cribs for nap time with little nature themed mobiles above them!

and for the tots and kiddos, there would be baskets upon baskets of toys, from cars to barbies, to action figures! and there'd be a huge playground and field outside for recess! we'd have hopscotch, four-square, jungle gyms, swings, and so many slides... there's be pavement to color with chalk, bubbles to blow, tricycles and scooters to ride! and in the field, kiddos can play soccer and tag with one another <3

there'd be a community garden where our little helpers can pitch in and we'd grow all sorts of fruits, veggies, and plants! and at the end of each harvesting season, our leaflings will all get to take something home with them!

for the middles, they'd have their own room with game consoles, just dance, a computer lab, a craft station, and much more! we'd make super cool crafts like origami, mini plushies, bracelets, and more! there'd be a free library full of picture and chapter books to read, a cozy nature-themed reading corner with bean bags and a fake tree with animal hand puppets to play with!

little leaf daycare would be so amazing, don't you think?

[little-leaf-daycare]

May I have some popcorn pwease? I’m tired ;-;

of course! and don't forget to rest up a bit when you can, okay sweetie? here's some popcorn!

[little-leaf-daycare]

[little-leaf-daycare]

do u knpw ani rwcipes 4 bby litles ?’

-buni

hi buni! i can give you a little list!

- fruit smoothies!

if you make them nice and thick, you can eat it with a spoon and it won't melt everywhere! really yummy, perfect for hot weather, and you can add any fruits you want! i like strawberry, mango, and banana with thick yogurt and a little bit of honey!

- toast bites!

you can make some toast and cut it into little bites, and each bite can have different little toppings! i like to make mashed avocado toast with a little bit of bacon, strawberry cream cheese toast, apple jelly toast, and peanut butter and honey! (you can also use sunflower butter if you can't have nuts!)

- overnight oats!

you can get some jars, add 1 part oats, 1 part milk of your choice, seal it up, and refrigerate overnight! give it enough time to make sure your oats are nice and soft! i like to make a bunch of plain ones so i can add my own toppings to each jar when i'm ready to eat it! this is a good meal prep option too because you can make a bunch of servings at once! you can also find some overnight oats kits at walmart!

- butter noodles

cook some noodles of your choice and add some butter, salt, and parmesean cheese if you want! this is a good choice for picky babies too!

[little-leaf-daycare]

Hai miss Leaf!!!

Do you like peeps!? I love them! My most favorite are the Dr.Pepper flavored ones ! :o so strange to think of a soda as a marshmallow BUTZ it’s very very very tasty! if you like peeps what’s your favorite flavors?!

oh hi bean! that plushie sounds so amazing wow!!!! 42 inches is hugeeeee! congrats on your new bunny peep friend!!!

i do like peeps! i don't have them often unless it's around easter time (which it is right now!!!) and i think my favorite flavor would be the s'mores ones! they are pretty hard to find though </3 i hope to get some soon! and dr. pepper flavored peeps?! i didn't know those existed :O they sound so incredibly yummy! i want to try them!
