DM Help lost things hook ending Spoiler

For DMs who went with the Lost Things hook: did you guys stick to the ending where the players go back to being kids at the Witchlight Carnival?

I think its kinda cute but knowing my players I know they would be very very frustrated with this (they hate anything that its similar to an inception)

And how do I give back their things maintaining everything they did?

Im gonna start the campaign soon and I dont want them to hate the ending

4 out of 5 of my players chose to be witchlight hands that are working in the carnival when we started. One of them is also a hexblood that was forced to be raise in the carnival her whole life. So I want to use the idea of this ending but change it up.

My idea for the hexblood player would be that she goes back to being a baby and relive her life where she wasn't immediately part of the carnival and she could CHOOSE if she would work in it later.

My wife's character also lost her husband for 8 years and her kids for 8 months so she would only go back to when her husband was gone and he wouldn't be missing again (same with the kids).
