Instructions

1. When a child has a hard time separating from a parent in the morning, a
class pet really helps.
2. Give the children food to feed the pet when they arrive, such as carrots for a
guinea pig.
3. This lets children feel helpful and ready to begin the day.
4. Create a home-school connection by asking the children to bring in food for
the class pet.
