Join a childcare class as they get ready for naptime and learn about opposites!

"It's time to rest," our teachers say. So let's stretch our arms high, then hang them low. Our mouths open to yawn, and eyes close to sleep. When we wake up, some of us are smiling and others frown. What other opposites will we learn as we go from one part of the day to the next?

• Introduces opposites to toddlers
• Shows a diverse cast of toddlers going through their daily routines at childcare
• Last page encourages interactive learning of opposites
