FULL TRANSCRIPT:

Pssst! Over here!

Take my hand, I’ll take you to a Pretend Land!

Are you ready?

1 -2 -3, Wheeeeeeeeee!

Welcome to A Carefully Built Pretend. My name is Melissa, and I’m so glad you’re here!

Today we’ll be reading a silly story called “Repeat After Me”. Now, I’ll need your help for this story to work. I’m going to read it to you, but every time I pause, I need you to repeat what I said. I promise we’re all going to have a lot of fun!

Are you ready? Here we go!

Repeat after me:

My favourite smell is ...  rotten bananas!

I am the LOUDEST... sneezer in the world!

I really love to visit... the bathroom!

My favourite song is... the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend!

I always win 1st place in.... the burping contest!

I love to wear... clown underwear!

I am the fastest... at taking my time!

I really enjoy... stepping in dog poop!

My favourite food is... fried worms... with a side of boiled cabbage in peanut butter... with soggy bread on top!

When I sing I sound just like... a very old, angry goat!

My favourite colour is... green like a booger!

Being silly and laughing out loud... feels great!

Learning can be... both hard AND fun!

I have many... talents

I am a good... friend

It’s okay to have... a bad day

It’s okay to feel.... sad or mad

This is going to be... a really great day!

The... End!

Thank you for being here my friend, it’s so nice to spend a little bit of time with you!

I hope you enjoyed this story, and remember, being silly for just a few minutes can completely change your mood! If you’re having a bad day, you can come back to this silly story, or make up your own, and it should help turn things around.

Until next time, keep imagining, dreaming, and pretending – and being very, VERY silly once in a while! – and I’ll be back very soon.

This podcast features original music by Cannelle and is brought to you by Things with Wings productions and Phaeton Starling Publishing. I’m Melissa Oliveri. Thank you for listening.
