Taking Care of My Things

I have special things that I love, like my favorite toys and my cozy clothes. Taking care of my things means I keep them safe and clean. This helps me enjoy them for a long, long time. After I hug my teddy bear, I put it back on my pillow so it doesn’t get dirty.

When playtime is over, it is time to help my things go home. First, I find the special bin where my blocks live. Then, I pick up each block and place it gently inside. I do not throw them, because they might break. When the last block is in, I put the bin back on its shelf. Now my room is tidy and I know where to find my blocks tomorrow.

Taking care of my things is important. When I put my toys and clothes away, my room stays neat and safe. It also helps me find what I need when I want to play or get dressed. Caring for my special things helps me feel happy and proud of my space.
