A video has gone viral of turtles helping each other. One turtle in on his back, clearly in trouble and not able to flip over. Gradually, the other turtles in the pool swim toward the flailing turtle and manoeuvre it so that it can swim upright.

The video in the link above is just 16 seconds long but has been viewed millions of times over the weekend.

What are they doing? The picture shows two friends enjoying a football match. There is something different about how they are enjoying the match; can you guess what that is? One of the friends is blind. During the match, the friend on the left is explaining what is happening on the pitch. Soon both friends are jumping up and down with happiness - why? People on social media are praising the photo because  it shows how friends can support each other. One person write about his Grandad who was short-sighted and couldn't see the match like everyone else. He would take a radio and earphones with him and listen to the game as he was there. - How do you think it feels to be in a football crowd and not be able to see what is happening? - perhaps the blind man should not

Sue took in 6 kittens that needed rescuing. Within hours, Teasel started allowing the kittens to drink her milk and cuddle up to her. Initially, Sue expected to have the kitten for just one night but as Teasel is looking after them, she is keeping them a little longer; "My dog decided she was going to look after them. She was cleaning them and making milk." "She stays cuddled up to them all night. If anybody comes in who she doesn't know, and the kittens have gone astray, she'll pick them up and put them back to bed." "She has assumed the role of mum." - What is unusual here? How do dogs and cats normally react to each other? - How do you think the kittens felt when they first arrived at Sue's house? - How do you think Teasel felt when six kittens turned u

Kamden uses a wheelchair and one day Paul was horrified when he saw his friend's chair tip up and Kamden fall out. The problem was Kamden had grown too big for his chair, but his family could not afford to buy a new one. Paul said, "His wheelchair has fallen forward so many times and that sucks. Also he has a really hard time pushing it because it's so heavy." Paul decided he needed to help his friend so he investigated ways to raise money. Paul asked his Mun to set up a Go Fund Me page to raise $3900 for a new chair. In 26 days the page had raised $5935! Kamden's mum said, "What really contributes to their friendship is that Paul does not see Kamden as someone who has a disability. He sees him as Kamden. Because of that, Ka
