Tales of a Preschool fibster

February 2nd, 2007

I’ve been hearing quite the stories from Miss PJ after school over the past few weeks. She tells tails of kids getting in trouble for not including others in their play, kids getting time outs for not being nice and still others being spoken to for just plain old ill behavior.

As we were talking I started to inquire if any of these kids just so happened to be her. “OH NO” she said and went to list four or five classmates that clearly were misbehaving in school, each with their own story.

Seeing that “we” happened to have a few problems with including others in the past, it was not too off the mark for me to think that she was projecting. So last week I told the teacher of PJ’s exciting tales, what she was saying and that I was wondering if it happened to be her and not her classmates at all.

That sweet teacher looked at me, shook her head and said, “Yeah, she’s been having some problems with that.” And then proceed to give us some new reading materials:

Share and Take Turns
Join In and Play
Talk and Work It Out

I decided to add Be Polite and Kind and the one on manners while I was at it.

Can’t hurt, right?
