The big ideaSharing is giving some of what we have. It is kind.

How it works

Sharing is giving some of what we have. It is kind.

Pip had lots of apples and gave one to a hungry friend. We can share snacks, toys, books and time.

Sharing• giving an apple• a turn with the ball• a book• playing togetherNot sharing• hiding the apples• keeping every snack• running off with the ball• opening a friend's bag
Sharing, and not sharing.

Example 1: Sharing a snack

  1. Pip's friend has a grumbling tummy.
  2. Pip has lots of apples, plenty for two.
  3. Pip picks the shiniest and says, here, have an apple.

Example 2: Both are happy

  1. The friend says thank you and crunches the apple.
  2. Pip feels warm inside.
  3. The friend feels warm too.

Example 3: Sharing a turn

  1. The next day, the friend has a ball.
  2. Pip and the friend share the ball all day long.
  3. Kindness returns: Pip gave an apple and got a playmate.

Example 4: Ask first

  1. The friend has a backpack, and it stays shut.
  2. A friend's things need a yes first.
  3. So we ask before we share a friend's things.
