​Let’s revisit Becky’s scenario and discuss how you might change things knowing what you know now. 

Becky is 3-years-old and she is new to Shining Time Daycare Center. Her family has just moved from out of state and this is her second day care center. Today is her second day at Shining Time and she seems fairly comfortable and confident. She has made new friends and enjoys playing dolls with them. Lunch is over and it’s nap time now. Becky is learning the routines, but she is so excited about playing with her new friends that she keeps getting up from her mat to go talk to them. This is disrupting several of the other children who are trying to nap. 
​

1. What are your thoughts about this scenario? How could this have been avoided in the first place? How would you react as her teacher? How can you make nap time a positive experience for all of the children even with these types of challenges?
