3. Play the game, Help - I'm Stuck!
- Take turns with your child being the helper.
- Pretend to fall down (sit down on floor) as you say, "Help, I'm stuck!" Hold out your hand for help. Encourage your child to help you get up.
- Tell your child it's their turn to fall down by saying, "Uh-oh! Fall Down!" Remind them to say, "Help, I'm stuck!" Now, you help them up.
- Wrap Up: "Wasn't it fun to be a helper? Let's keep our eyes open this week for opportunities to help someone." You might consider using that phrase as you go about your week to remind your child when you need their help.
