Pip's Play Cards
Cut them out. Pick one after a sheet, or any time!

Tap a pattern on your knees: tap, tap, tappity tap!
Your grown‑up copies it. Then swap.
Knee taps wobble nobody's drawing!

You draw. Your grown‑up taps the table.
Say it like Pip: "I feel cross when you tap the table. Please stop."

Your grown‑up says some words.
Storm words, like "GO AWAY!"? Stomp your feet.
Clear words, like "Please stop"? Stand tall!

Teddy laughs at your wobbly dance.
Tell Teddy: "I feel sad when you laugh. Please stop."
Teddy says sorry. Now dance together!

Your grown‑up does a silly wiggle dance.
Say "Please stop" in a calm, clear voice. They freeze like a statue!
Then you wiggle.

Teddy keeps tapping. You said "Please stop." Teddy did not stop.
Walk to your grown‑up and say, "I used my words. Teddy still won't stop."
