Introduction
Someone who has a sibling is always busy in
a way. So this is a story about all things you need to know about having a
sibling. When you read this story I hope you can make being with your sibling
more fun for you and your sibling. Days before this you were probably saying,
“Why do I have to look after him?” I hope that that will change after you read this
story.
Chapter 1
How to Teach Your Sibling
If
you want to teach your sibling how to somersault, read this paragraph. You can
find a big hill or just do it on a bed or a rug. Tell the sibling to get down
on their knees and then put their head and hands on the ground and push off. If
a baby or toddler can’t push him or herself, give them a little push to start
off.
If you want to teach your sibling how to
talk, sit in a chair with some food and start saying a word you want them to
know. Keep doing it and eventually they will end up being a parrot.
Walking
is something we all learn to do. If you want your sibling to walk you should
read this. Hold their hands and walk with them. Say something like, “You’re
Superman.”
If it’s a girl
say something like, “You’re flying” or something in their ear. Try this until
they are walking.
Chapter 2
How to Occupy Your Sibling
To
keep your sibling busy, you might try some different tricks. Gum will do if you
have any. You can also play a game.
You can take
them to the park or just go outside. If they go to sleep it will save you some
time. But you should be aware that they are going to be moody when they wake
up. If you’re lucky they wont be. You should get some food, play music, or get
a toy. There are some toys out there that really do the trick. For instance, a
small cuddly toy or puppet.
Chapter 3
What Games to Play with Your Sibling
The
tickle contest is a game that your little brother or little sister plays while sitting
in your lap. When they laugh you tickle them. They have to stop laughing
otherwise you can’t stop.
An eye contest is where you look them in
the eye.
Whoever blinks
first loses. There is another game that doesn’t matter how you play it. It’s
house.
This is a game my mom taught me. Get a
dictionary and point to a word without looking. Say someone in your family’s
name. Whatever you point to is what they are. For example, if I land on
“gorilla” in the dictionary and I say “Maddox”, then Maddox is a gorilla.
Chapter 4
When they are Acting Bad
So
here is what you do. If they are a bad don't be too harsh on them. Just say,
“Can you please stop.” Act gentle at first. If they are pretty bad you might
want to get help to calm the commotion. If they are plain just bad maybe just
ask them to go to their room. When they are sad give them a hug and tell them
something special.
Conclusion
In
conclusion, I have shared with you different ways to deal with your sibling.
These are the kind of things you need to think about when your family is
getting bigger, like mine is. Soon I will have a little brother or sister (who
I will love very much). I will refer to this story when I need help with my new
sister or brother.
