I am a . . . Preschooler SPIRITUALLY • I like stories from the Bible, especially when you teach me in different ways (listening, acting, puppets, etc.). • I think God is like you. When you love me and make God’s house a nice place to be, you are teaching me about God. • I like to imitate adults who are showing me how to pray, worship, and obey God.
PHYSICALLY • I have lots of energy. • I like to run, climb, and move around. • I am getting better at using my hands to color, do puzzles, practice stirring, and pick up small things. • I am learning to use the restroom independently.
SOCIALLY • I am learning to obey, but I can’t always remember the rules. • I understand more than I can say, and I communicate through body language. • I like to say “no” when asked to do something. Let me choose between two options. • I am learning to share.
INTELLECTUALLY • I am curious, and I like to use my senses to explore my world. • I like being challenged with a variety of questions. • I have a short attention span for each activity, ideally 1 minute for each year I am old plus 2 (3 years old = 5 minutes). • I can remember simple facts, songs, and finger plays.
EMOTIONALLY • I am usually happy, but I can have strong feelings. • I might be afraid to leave my parents, meet strangers, and try new things. • I want you to like me.
