Roots of Empathy - Theme 3
Theme 3 - Caring and Planning for Baby
In this theme we are learning about caring and planning for the baby, with a focus on teething. Growing new teeth happens with babies and also with children of their own age.
Teething is a traumatic time for many babies and can affect mood changes and sleep patterns. A baby getting its first tooth is a 'milestone' a part of growing up.
Mrs Elliott came and told us the story of 'Sasha and the Wiggly Tooth'.
This story was about a little boy Sasha who lost his first tooth.
- Was it painful?
- Did you feel embarassed / Scared / worried or happy?
The children drew a picture of how they felt when they lost their first tooth.
