The lesson

When someone is hurt, the most important thing you can do is get a grown-up. You do not have to fix it by yourself. A grown-up knows what to do next.

First, take a slow breath. Staying calm helps you think, and it helps the hurt person feel safer. Then find a grown-up you trust and tell them clearly what happened.

Good to know

If the hurt looks big, or someone cannot wake up, or someone is bleeding a lot, shout for help right away. Keep shouting until an adult comes.

Try it together

Practice your calm-down breath. Breathe in while you count to three, then breathe out while you count to three. Do it two times.

When someone is hurt, stay calm, breathe, and get a grown-up.
