Once upon a time, there were the most delicious strawberries in the world! Everyone wanted to taste them. One by one, friends lined up to get a strawberry.
Everyone was excited to get their turn. “I’ll take one! I’ll take one!” they said. But remember, it’s important to wait your turn and not cut in line!
Guess what? With special seeds, you can grow your own yummy strawberries at home! Isn’t that amazing? You just need to plant the seeds, water them, and watch them grow!
Oh no! Someone took the special seeds without asking. That’s not nice! But don’t worry, Chef Labrador is here to help. He is very smart and can solve any problem!
Chef Labrador looked everywhere and found the thief hiding up high. “Stop right there!” he said. The thief tried to run away, but with teamwork, they caught him.
The thief learned that taking things without asking is wrong. He promised never to do it again. It’s important to always ask before taking something that isn’t yours.
Chef Labrador has an important message: Never put small things like beans, nuts, or marbles in your nose or mouth. It can make it hard to breathe and is very dangerous. Always be safe!
Always wait your turn, ask before taking things, and stay safe by keeping small objects out of your nose and mouth. Have fun and enjoy learning!
Strawberry Planting Activity: Let’s grow our own strawberries! Gather some strawberry seeds, a small pot, and soil. Plant the seeds together and water them. Watch them grow over the weeks. Talk about what plants need to grow and how taking care of them is important. Ask the children, “What do you think will happen if we forget to water our plants?”
Role-Playing Game: Create a line with your friends and practice taking turns. Pretend you are all waiting for strawberries. Discuss why it’s important to wait your turn and how it feels when someone cuts in line. Ask, “How can we remind our friends to wait their turn nicely?”
Safety Sorting Game: Collect various small and large objects (like beans, toy blocks, and balls). Have the children sort them into two groups: safe to play with and not safe to put in the mouth or nose. Discuss why some objects are dangerous and what to do if they find something small. Ask, “What should you do if you see a friend putting something small in their mouth?”
