Help children learn patience, turn-taking, and calm communication through story-based play.
This Story + Activity Bundle pairs the illustrated children’s story “Wait Your Turn, Lucía” with a set of playful, screen-free activities designed to help young children practice waiting, asking for turns, and managing big feelings in a gentle, developmentally appropriate way.
Through games, movement, drawing, and guided conversations, children learn that waiting is a skill they can practice, not a punishment — and that cooperation makes play more fun for everyone.
✔️ A rhyming story about turn-taking and patience
✔️ Turn-taking games that encourage cooperation
✔️ Silly movement challenges (no punishments, only fun!)
✔️ Calm-down breathing exercises for waiting moments
✔️ Drawing and reflection prompts
✔️ Role-play scenarios for social problem-solving
✔️ Parent and caregiver conversation guides
✔️ Simple phrases kids can repeat to self-regulate
All activities are screen-free, easy to set up, and designed for everyday moments at home or in the classroom.
