Once upon a time in a land of fun,
Lived a little drama queen named Hun,
She'd stomp and cry at every little spill,
And make a funny scene, oh what a thrill!

One day while playing with her toys,
She knocked over a cup and made a noise,
Her eyes grew wide, she started to sob,
And gasped for breath like a little bob.

But then she paused and took a breath,
And realized she didn't have to make a fuss and fret,
She laughed it off and cleaned the spill,
And danced around with a happy thrill.

From then on, Hun learned to be,
A little less dramatic, calm and free,
She still loved to be funny and play,
But no longer cried over little spills every day.

So remember kids, when things go wrong,
Just take a breath and sing a song,
It's okay to have fun and be seen,
Just don't be a drama queen!

Reflections

Here are a few questions to ask kids to think about "The Tale of the Little Drama Queen":

1. Who is the main character of the story and what is her name?
2. Why does Hun react dramatically when she spills something?
3. What does Hun do when she spills something later in the story, and how is it different from her previous reactions?
4. What does Hun learn by the end of the story, and how does she change?
5. Can you think of a time when you reacted dramatically to a mistake or spill, and how could you handle the situation differently next time?
