Naptime Choices

Once upon a time, in a cozy classroom, there was a little girl named Reese. It was naptime, but Reese did not want to sleep. She thought there were too many fun things to do instead of napping. She squirmed and made noise on her mat, making it hard for the other kids to rest.

Reese's teacher noticed her struggle and decided to help. She talked to Reese and together they came up with a 'Choice Board'. This board had different quiet activities Reese could choose from instead of napping. The teacher explained that Reese could pick one activity each day to do on her mat during naptime.

The next day, Reese looked at her Choice Board. She saw options like playing with a busy book, reading a story, water painting, and playing ISpy. Reese felt excited to have these choices. She picked the busy book and quietly flipped through its pages on her mat.

As the days went by, Reese continued to explore the different activities on the Choice Board. She found joy in reading stories, creating beautiful water paintings, and playing ISpy with her friends. She realized that naptime didn't have to be boring.

Reese's teacher was thrilled to see Reese making good choices and enjoying quiet activities during naptime. The classroom became a peaceful place, and everyone felt rested and happy when they woke up from their naps. Reese's good choices were making a big difference.

With Reese's positive influence, other children in the classroom also started using the Choice Board. They found their own favorite activities and naptime became a time of calm and relaxation for everyone. The teacher was proud of the children for making naptime choices.

Reese learned that making good choices could make a big difference. She felt happy knowing that she was helping her friends and the teacher. Naptime was no longer a fight, and Reese felt proud of herself for finding new ways to enjoy quiet time.

From that day on, naptime was a peaceful and happy time in the classroom. Reese and her friends happily chose their quiet activities and rested well. The teacher smiled, knowing that Reese's positive attitude had brought joy to everyone. And they all lived happily ever after.
