Hi there! Sometimes, we might feel a little nervous about going to the dentist. But guess what? It’s important to take care of our teeth! When we open our mouths wide, the dentist helps keep our teeth strong and clean. Don’t be scared; you can do it! You’re doing great!
If you ever feel scared about seeing a doctor, you can go with your family. They will stay close to you, and you can count to five together. Doctors are there to help us feel better, and there’s nothing to be afraid of. It’s not a monster; it’s just a doctor!
When you’re feeling a bit nervous, remember that you are really brave! Taking medicine can help you get better, and it’s okay to feel a little scared. But you are strong, and you can do it!
Playing with friends is so much fun! Even if you don’t like hospitals, your friends can bring you a present and play with you. It’s important to take your medicine so you can feel better and play more!
Let’s talk about feelings! Sometimes we feel happy, sad, scared, or even angry. Everyone has these feelings, and it’s okay. How are you feeling today? When we feel happy, we smile. When we feel angry, we might clench our fists. Knowing how we feel helps us understand ourselves better.
If you have a boo-boo, mommy or daddy can help you feel better. They can clean it and put a bandage on it. It’s nice to have someone to help us when we need it.
Let’s have a race! Who will win, the little car or the little bike? It’s so exciting to see who goes the fastest. Good job, Timmy!
After playing, it’s important to clean up our toys. Let’s put them back where they belong so we can find them next time. Keeping our toys organized is a great habit!
After a fun day, it’s time to say good night. See you in the morning for more fun and adventures!
Role-Playing the Dentist Visit: Set up a pretend dentist office in the classroom. Use a chair as the dentist’s chair and let the children take turns being the dentist and the patient. Provide them with toy tools and mirrors. Encourage them to talk about how they feel during the visit and what they can do to feel brave. Ask questions like, “What can you do if you feel nervous?” and “How can you help a friend who is scared?”
Feelings Matching Game: Create cards with different facial expressions showing emotions like happy, sad, scared, and brave. Ask the children to match the expressions with the correct emotion. Discuss with them what might make someone feel each emotion and how they can help themselves or others feel better. Encourage them to share a time they felt brave and what helped them.
Bravery Badge Craft: Provide materials like paper, markers, and stickers for children to create their own “Bravery Badge.” Ask them to think of a time they were brave, such as visiting the dentist or doctor, and draw it on their badge. Once completed, let them wear their badges and share their stories with the class, reinforcing the idea that everyone can be brave in different situations.
