This week we started to realize that that people might have different feelings about the same situation, and that's OK! This helps us build empathy and awareness of others' feelings.
Reflecting back on our first day of school was a perfect way for us to see that we all might not feel the same way.
Try these scenarios with people in your house and see if you would react the same way:
- A new puppy arrives on your doorstep
- Your family is giving out candy for Halloween instead of Trick or Treating
- The school announces a Snow Day
- You are first up at bat in a baseball game
- You're the first to perform in a dance recital
- The family is going to live somewhere different for the summer
- A friend wants you to hold a pet iguana
Do you have the same feelings as someone else at your house?
What are some other good scenarios to demonstrate that it's OK to have different feelings about the same event?
Have fun thinking about it!
