Lap Book Pre-K Little Quack

A parent should reach for this book when their child is feeling hesitant or scared about trying something new, like starting swim lessons or going to preschool for the first time. Little Quack tells the story of the last of five ducklings to leave the nest and try swimming in the pond. While his four siblings splash in enthusiastically, Little Quack hangs back, full of fear. With his mother's gentle and patient encouragement, he watches the others, and his fear slowly turns into curiosity until he's ready to take the plunge himself. This story is perfect for preschoolers ages 3 to 5. It beautifully normalizes the feeling of fear and models how taking a small step can lead to big, wonderful discoveries, all within the safety of a loving family.
