Ghosts

Ghosts are mysterious things that appear in picture books and old tales. Sometimes they float around or disappear quietly. But this ghost is smiling. There are also cute ghosts that are not scary.

🤔 What kind of face does this ghost have? Is it scary? Is it cute?

At night, when the room gets dark, shadows can look big. Sometimes the shadow of a curtain can look like a ghost. But when you turn on the light and look closely... Oh! It was just the curtain and a stuffed animal.

🤔 Have you ever seen something in the dark that looked like something else?

If you think, “I’m scared,” you don’t have to put up with it all by yourself. Try telling someone at home, “I’m scared.” Holding hands or turning on a light can help you feel safe. Feeling scared is not a bad thing.

🤔 When you feel scared, who can you tell, “I’m scared”?

Ghosts are a little bit scary and a little bit funny. There are stories where they pop out and say “Boo!” and there are also stories about kind ghosts. When everyone plays ghost pretend together, it can be fun. Ghosts make the world of imagination more exciting.

🤔 If you became a ghost, what kind of ghost would you want to be? A smiling ghost? A fluffy floating ghost?
