Scenario

Mia reaches across and scribbles on Gemma's writing.

"I dont care", says Mia. "I dont like you anymore!".
Answer:
I would ask Mia to apologies for drawing on Gemma's letter then proceed to ask both of the girls what they really like about "Dora" and then really get excited they have things in common and that its good for everyone to "love" who they like and then set an example of..."you and dad love mummy, nana and pop love mummy, its ok that you both love Dora, i think Dora would feel extra special knowing you both love her lots and lots!"..
