Picture stories
Short, calm stories that show a child what will happen and what they can do, one idea per page. Read them aloud, print them as booklets, or make them your own with your child’s name and photos.
Make a picture story
Using the potty
Sitting, wiping, flushing and washing hands, one step at a time.
Keeping hands to myself
Gentle hands, asking first, and what my hands can do with big feelings.
Personal space
Leaving a little space around other people, and asking for it too.
Fire drill
What happens in a fire drill, from the loud alarm to going back inside.
Sharing
Taking turns with toys, and what to do while I wait.
Following directions
Stopping, listening and doing what comes next.
Taking turns
Playing games together: my turn, your turn, and waiting in between.
Accepting no
Hearing no, having the feeling, and finding something else to do.
Calming down
Big feelings are okay, and here are things that help my body feel calm.
Riding the bus
Waiting at the stop, finding a seat and getting to school.
Going to the dentist
The waiting room, the big chair and counting teeth.
