Neel clapped softly. “There is your song!” he said. The cat stretched. The dog wagged. The duck paddled. And the little bird sang again. “Cheep, cheep, cheep!” “Neel listened carefully and heard that animals and birds make different sounds. The cat meows, the dog barks, the duck quacks, and the bird chirps. When we watch and listen kindly, we can learn about animals and birds around us.” 6 Use distinct voices and actions for each animal, then pause for children to copy one sound or movement. Keep the focus on noticing, listening, and enjoying animal differences rather than asking children to recall every animal sound For Practitioners

Inside were red tomatoes and green cucumber pieces. “Look!” said Maya. “Red and green!” Maya held it in her little hand. It was round and shiny. Then she ate it. Pop! “Mmm,” said Maya. “Juicy tomato!” Then Mama asked, “Would you like one tomato?” Maya pointed. “One red tomato, please!” Mama gave Maya one tomato. 3Level 1: Wonderful Super Senses
Keep the focus on choice, not finishing food. Use real or pretend food and repeat “one,” “more,” and “no, thank you” so children can practise taking a small amount and expressing what they want For Practitioners After a little while, Mama asked, “Would you like another?” Maya shook her head. “No, thank you.” Mama smiled. Maya waved to the box. “Bye-bye, tomatoes. See you tomorrow!” “Maya took one tomato and ate it. The other tomatoes stayed clean and safe in the box for another day. Taking a little at a time helps us care for food.” “That is okay. The other tomatoes can stay in the box.” Mama closed the box with a little click. “Tomorrow, we can have them again,” she said. 6

Join-in actions The Vegetable Basket’s Busy Morning One morning, Isha found a brown basket near the kitchen door. “What is inside?” she asked. Mama lifted the red cloth. “Look!” she said. Inside were vegetables. A round red tomato. A long green cucumber. An orange carrot with leafy hair. A shiny purple brinjal. And a little potato at the bottom. “Hello, vegetables!” said Isha. The carrot gave a wiggle. “I am crunchy!” The tomato gave a bounce. “I am juicy!” The cucumber stretched long. “I am cool and green!” The potato rolled over. “I grow under the soil!” Isha laughed. “Vegetables are all different!” 3Level 1: Wonderful Super Senses
Read with surprise and delight as each vegetable appears. Keep food talk positive and pressure-free; children may look, touch, smell, or talk about vegetables without being expected to taste them. For Practitioners Mama washed them in water. Swish, swish, swish. At lunch, Isha saw colourful vegetables on her plate. She tried a carrot piece. Crunch! Then she ate a cucumber piece. Munch! “My plate has lots of colours,” said Isha. Mama smiled. “Vegetables help your body grow strong.” Isha stood tall. “I am growing too!” “Isha saw vegetables in many colours, shapes, and sizes. Vegetables help our bodies grow, play, run, and stay strong.” 6
