It's crucial for little ones to know that everything is going according to plan and that their parents and other loved ones are ready to take care of them. A sleepover at their grandparents' can be a wonderful adventure if you plan ahead. For example, like Jacob's mom did: she gave him his favorite toy and his usual toothbrush, and let him know when she'd be back to pick him up. And Jacob had already planned what he would do at his grandparents'. "Today was Jacob's first time staying overnight at his grandparents'."
"Mom, you'll pick me up tomorrow, right?" Jacob hugs his mother.
"Of course, darling!" Mom nods, and Jacob, waving goodbye, runs into the house. "Jacob, what are we going to do after dinner?" Grandma asks.
“I’ll brush my teeth, change into my pajamas, and you tell me a bedtime story,” Jacob replies decisively.” For boys and girls aged 2 to 4.
