Hello, little friend! Are you ready to hear a fun story? Let’s get started!
Once upon a time, there was a little bunny named Benny. Benny loved to hop around quickly. He would say, “Quick, quick, quick!” as he hopped through the meadow. Benny was always in a hurry because he loved to explore and see new things.
After a long day of hopping and playing, Benny felt very tired. It was time for him to rest. Benny found a cozy spot under a big tree and snuggled up. He closed his eyes and whispered, “Thank you,” to the beautiful day he had. Then, he fell fast asleep, dreaming of more adventures.
From Benny’s story, we learn that it’s fun to be active and explore, but it’s also important to rest and sleep. Sleeping helps us feel strong and ready for another day of fun!
Can you think of a time when you were very active and then needed a nap? What fun things did you do? Remember, just like Benny, it’s okay to rest when you’re tired!
Thank you for listening to the story. Have a wonderful day full of fun and rest!
Bunny Hop Race: Let’s pretend to be Benny the Bunny! Find a safe space where you can hop around. Set a timer for one minute and see how many times you can hop like Benny. After the timer goes off, sit down and take deep breaths. How do you feel after hopping? Talk about why it’s important to rest after being active.
Dream Drawing: Just like Benny dreams of new adventures, let’s draw a picture of what you dream about when you sleep. Use crayons or markers to create your dream world. Share your drawing with a friend or family member and explain your dream adventure. Discuss why dreaming is a fun part of sleeping.
Rest and Recharge: Find a cozy spot in your home, just like Benny did under the tree. Close your eyes and imagine you’re in a peaceful place. Think about what you hear, see, and feel in this place. After a few minutes, open your eyes and share what you imagined. Why do you think resting helps us feel better?
