Once upon a time, there were two friends named Jack and Jill. They decided to go on an adventure up a big hill. They wanted to get a pail of water from the top. Can you imagine climbing a hill? It can be lots of fun!
As they were climbing, something unexpected happened. Jack slipped and fell down the hill. Oh no! He hurt himself. Right after, Jill also tumbled down the hill. It was quite a bumpy ride!
Jack got up and hurried home as fast as he could. He needed to rest and feel better. Sometimes when we get hurt, resting helps us heal. Jack went to bed with some special remedies to help him get well soon.
Even though Jack and Jill had a little accident, they were brave and learned to be careful. When we play or go on adventures, it’s important to watch our steps and stay safe. Remember, it’s okay to ask for help if you need it!
Let’s pretend to be Jack and Jill! You can practice climbing a pretend hill in your room. Make sure to step carefully and have fun. Maybe you can even draw a picture of Jack and Jill’s adventure!
Build Your Own Hill: Gather some pillows, cushions, or soft blankets and create a small hill in your living room. Pretend to climb it like Jack and Jill. As you climb, think about how you can be careful and safe. What would you do if you were Jack or Jill? Share your thoughts with a friend or family member.
Safety Adventure Walk: Go on a short walk with an adult around your neighborhood or a park. Look for things that might be slippery or tricky to walk on, like wet leaves or uneven paths. Talk about how you can stay safe, just like Jack and Jill learned to be careful. Can you find three things that help keep you safe on your walk?
Story Time with a Twist: Draw a picture of a new adventure for Jack and Jill. Imagine they are going somewhere different, like a forest or a beach. What might happen there? Think about how they can stay safe on this new adventure. Share your story and drawing with your class or family.
