During this story, Blue learns why it can be essential to take time to consider the needs of others. Remarkably, her older sibling works nights. Blue’s Dad explains that an indoor voice is when we speak quietly and calmly. We do not shout or make loud noises.
At the end of the story blue understands and for the rest of the day, she remembers to use her indoor voice.
We created RainbowSmart with parents and carers in mind. They aim to support you in communicating with your child to help them understand more about the world around them. Each story seeks to help them with different scenarios they may face as they grow.
Within the series of 40 read-to-me, your child will discover how to be a good friend, share, and even help at home. We have also linked each story to the Early Learning Goals, which your child will explore in their educational setting.
In the stories, the characters often need support with their feelings and emotions and will receive help along the way. Equip your child with skills readily transferable to real-life situations. The best time to support your children to self-regulate is early years. You can nurture these qualities with our read-to-me series, recommended for children aged 3 to 7. These stories cover feelings and emotions in the most lovable manner.
How to select the best read-to-me stories
Selecting a read-to-me that links to children’s experiences is a great way to help them process feelings and emotions.
For example, if your child has difficulty managing their emotions, you may wish to explore Orange Feels Worried or Rainbow Feels Angry.
Please support your child to self-regulate, be kind, have positive relationships, and much more as they grow.
