Between trainings in how to curtsey, four princess friends catch a sneaky Duke trying to trap deer in the King’s forest.

Possible Concerns:

  • Magic. One of the princesses is skilled at giving gems special powers: detecting metals, glowing, and communicating between proncesses.
  • Sneaking away at night. The princesses sneak away from a ballroom dinner to go play on a jungle gym at night.
  • Anti-hunting. Families that value hunting may wish to know rhe villain wants to trap deer for hanging their antlers in the wall.
  • Romance. The purpose of the final ball is to introduce princes and princesses. It was fun that when asked to dance by the strongest prince candidate, the main character says, “Maybe later!” and goes to dance with her friends.
