Starchild: Why Malaysian kids love their best friends


Hannah Chan Yue Bei, 8

Friends are a very important part of our lives. Having friends makes school, playtime, and even everyday activities more fun and enjoyable. Friends are the people who understand us, share our interests, and stand by us through thick and thin.

Friends also teach us valuable life skills. By playing and interacting with friends, we learn how to share, take turns, and listen to others. These are vital skills that help us get along with people not just in school, but throughout our lives. Friends can also help us with schoolwork, encourage us to try new activities, and motivate us to do our best.
