How it works
We put things away, and they are easy to find next time.
Gentle hands help things last a long, long time.
We wash what we use, and old things are special too.
Worked examples
Put it away
- Kit puts his blocks in the box, plop, plop, plop.
- His books go on the shelf, standing up straight.
- Next day, Kit finds his yellow block fast.
Gentle hands
- Kit puts his toys down gently. He never throws them.
- He turns the pages of his book slowly, with dry paws.
- He hugs his teddy softly, and not too tight.
Old things are special
- Dot's old teddy has a patch on its ear.
- Kit says, your teddy is lovely, and Dot smiles.
- Old things hold lots of hugs.
