WarmHearts

WarmHearts
WarmHearts is a Doggietopia celebration that's a bit like Christmas. The big difference is the story behind the celebration.

The WarmHearts Story
It all started on December 20th, 1560, the year when Doggietopia was created by a spirit from space, known as Paden. He was the last of a doggie-like spirit species. He was bored and used a swish of his paw to create a brand new planet, and decided to make living beings there that are similar to his own, but not the same. This planet became Doggietopia, and the beings became Doggies.

However, they weren't very nice to each other at all. They shouted and yelled and they were mad all the time. They screamed at each other for every tiny thing they did that wasn't like themselves. Luckily, a Doggie called Lumica stepped in and told them all that shouting wasn't the answer. She said that everydoggie is different and nodoggie is the same, and that they should try to respect that.

Lumica was unfortunately hated for this. Until 5 unknown Doggies decided to put on a play showing the others that Lumica was right. After the play, the other Doggies understood and apologized to Lumica. From then on, all Doggies did a pretty well job of showing respect.

Why Paden couldn't help, however, will always be a mystery. When he created the planet his energy and magic might have been used up. Or he could have fallen from space and is maybe still falling today.

Celebrating
The Doggies celebrate Doggietopia's first peace by playing traditional WarmHearts music, which is made up of drums and flutes.

They decorate their room with shiny things like tinsel and glass ornaments. Some parties are held in the local Hall and some are held at home.

Noodle soup is the international WarmHearts food. The pudding is usually fruit pie. After dinner it's dance time and gift time!

White, pink and yellow are traditional WarmHearts colours. White represents peace, pink represents love and yellow represents happiness. Decorations are traditionally these three colours and it's also tradition to wrap presents in these colours.
