Thursday: Stay put, find a helper

Bruce looks up at the big store. Where is his grown-up?

His heart beats fast.

"Stay put," he tells himself.

If you get separated

Separated means you and your grown-up lost each other.

It can happen in a busy place.

Here is the plan. Stay put. Stop right where you are.

Say your grown-up's real name in a big voice.

Look for a helper: a worker with a name tag.

Tell the helper your grown-up's name.

Never leave the place. Your grown-up is looking too.

  1. Stop and stay put.
  2. Call your grown-up's real name loudly.
  3. Find a worker with a name tag.
  4. Tell the helper your grown-up's name.
  5. Wait with the helper.
