• You can take three slow breaths.
• You can talk to the teacher.
• You can look at the clock for pick-up time.

Tips for reading it

Read it together 2 to 3 times a day for several days before the event, in a calm moment (not right before it, and never as a surprise). Read it once more the morning of.

• Create a short, predictable goodbye ritual and do it the same way every time; do not sneak away.
• Tell your child exactly when pick-up is (after snack, after nap) rather than clock time.
• Check the real details with the place or person (what will really happen, how long it takes) and edit the story to match.
