Sharing is giving someone something that you have to show that you care!

Talking Points:

  • You can share by taking turns. Don’t hog all the time in the game or on the monkey bars!
  • You can share by splitting with someone. If you have a cookie, break off half and share with a friend!
  • You can share by spending time together. Include people in your game or other activities.
  • You can share by trading. If you have something that your friend wants, trade what you have for something they have!
