We are so excited to introduce you Apple the Anteater with ADHD!!

Apple is a thoughtful anteater who loves math and science! Although her room is cluttered and her thoughts bounce around, Apple enjoys problem solving and finding solutions to her friends’ predicaments! Sometimes, she needs a reminder from a friend to eat or drink water when she gets her nose too deep in her math workbook, but Poppy and Clover bring her plenty of snacks! Apple is a meticulous thinker with a high attention to detail, making her every Critter’s go-to gal when they need help! 

Apple was diagnosed with ADHD later in life because she did well in school and didn’t show stereotypical traits her teachers associated with ADHD. She has her days where she masks for too long and needs to rest, but has been working hard to learn that it’s okay to stay unmasked and that her friends love her for who she is!

Critter Fun Fact: While anteaters eat for 1-2 hours a day, they can only eat for around 60 seconds at a time! They visit 100-200 mounds a day for their food! It takes a lot of focus to stay on task and keep going from mound to mound without getting distracted!
