How Do Dinosaurs Learn to Be Kind?

What the cast said

Welcome back to StoryBeam, the daily podcast where imagination shines bright.

I'm Kat.

I'm Allison. Happy Throwback Thursday!

For today's Throwback Thursday, we are checking in with our favorite prehistoric pals from Jane Yolen and Mark Teague's classic series.

Our StoryBeam is shining a light on playground manners as we read, How Do Dinosaurs Learn to Be Kind?

Do they bully their friends or hoard their toys?

No way!

Absolutely not.

These giant scaly friends might start off a little rough, but they quickly learn how to share, take turns, and care for others.

Let's see how a dinosaur shows kindness.

Let's get our ears on.

I've got mine.

Ready?

Three, two, one.

Let's read!

Here the cast reads How Do Dinosaurs Learn to Be Kind? by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague. The book's own words stay with its author and publisher, so that part of the recording is not written out. Press play to hear it.

Oh my, I love seeing giant T-Rexes and Triceratops holding doors open and sharing their snacks.

It proves that no matter how big or tough you are, kindness is always the coolest choice.

Co-host, if a dinosaur came to our local playground today, what playground rule would you teach them first?

Be kind to everyone.

That's right, kindness is top priority.

Grown-ups, to keep the beloved dinosaur themed rolling, our StoryBeam suggestion for your next library run is How Do Dinosaurs Go to School?

also by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague.

It's another fantastic funny read aloud that helps little ones learn about classroom routines and teamwork.

Look for it in our show notes.
