It's imagination time with Katie. Hi friends.
Welcome to Imagination Time with Katie. I'm Katie, and today's episode is inspired by the super simple song, Sitting on the potty.
That's right. It's potty time. We know that potty time can sometimes be tricky, but we're here to help. whether you've got potty time mastered or you're still learning.
This episode is going to be a lot of fun and hopefully helpful too.
Here we go. It's get to be with you, my friend.
I'm glad we're together again We've got Zach on the keys Katie singing, la, la, la, la, la.
We'll have some fun in our imagination. Go on adventures again and again.
It's good to be with you, my friend. Hello, hello.
I'm Katie. And Zach is here too. Hello, hello.
Are you ready for some imagination time?
Because imagination time is ready for you.
But how can we be sure it's really imagination time?
Well, we know because we sang the song It's imagination time.
And we said hello. So it's good to be with you, my friend.
And we're all here together. So it must be imagination time.
But it's not so easy to know if it's the right time for something.
I was thinking about our friends. all of you out there listening, and how some of you might be learning to use the potty for the first time.
That's something I like to call potty time.
Because it sounds like party time. And that makes it extra fun.
But I was thinking... It can be pretty tricky to know when it's potty time.
How can we know for sure that it's time to use the potty?
We don't have a hello song or a fun little jingle for that feeling.
That's a feeling we have to learn. And that just comes with practice and time.
And we got some imagination time today. So maybe we can figure this out. even if it means making a mistake or two.
First, let's clear our minds and calm our bodies so we can be ready for whatever feelings we might have.
Ready Zach? Ready Katie. Are you ready friends?
Let's take a deep breath all together. In one, two, three, hold it.
Out three, two, one. Let's relax our bodies.
Imagine your arms. and legs are getting heavy and being pulled towards the ground.
We can imagine them melting down. until our whole body feels soft.
When it's potty time, our tummy might feel heavy too.
And it feels like we have to squeeze it from the inside.
Can you make your tummy feel like it's giving a squeeze?
It's almost like a hug. Just in our tummy.
Once we're at the potty, we can relax and let our tummies melt.
We know that taking a deep breath helps our bodies relax.
So let's take one more deep breath all together.
In one, two, three, hold it. Out three, two, one.
Now we know what it feels like when it's potty time.
When we feel that feeling, here's what we gotta do.
When I gotta go I stop what I'm doing I go to the party and I sit right down That's right!
Look at me, sitting on the potty Tweedledee Dee, sitting on the potty I'm a big kid, sitting on the potty It's potty time But I don't feel that feeling right now me neither I guess it's not potty time yet.
So let's get started on imagination time.
What should we imagine? Hmm, I'm thinking of thought I'm thinking a lot We need an idea Let's work with what we've got I got it.
Let's imagine we're on safari. We're moving through the grasslands on the search for animals.
I wonder what we'll see. Can you picture the long grass in your mind?
I imagine it stretches out so far, as far as the eye can see.
There are trees here and there. There might be an animal behind any one of them.
Do you see any animals in your mind? Look around, look around, look around And see what can be found I imagine I see a lion Wow!
Can you see a lion in your mind? I imagine I can see it peeking its head around the trunk of a tree.
And I imagine I can hear its loud roar. Let's imagine it's making its way through the grass with its big paws.
Step by step. Little lion stomp your feet Little lion stomp your feet Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp Little lion stomp your feet.
Look at it go! I think I feel something in my tummy.
It feels full and heavy. That means it's potty time.
Right! And we know what we gotta do! When I gotta go I stop what I'm doing I go to the party and I sit right down But I don't want to stop imagination time.
I'm having so much fun pretending to be on safari.
I don't want it to be potty time yet. Potty time will just have to wait.
Waiting. Are you sure? Yep. I can make the squeeze feeling in my tummy.
And then I can keep playing. Can we find another animal on our safari?
I imagine I see a big elephant. Can you imagine an elephant in your mind?
One little elephant look at me Big ears, little eyes, one very long trunk One little elephant look at me I like to eat, I like to play I like to roll around in the mud But most of all I like to stomp stomp stomp stomp!
Let's imagine the elephant stomping their feet!
I imagine their feet make dust fly up into the air.
Elephants love to stop. And they like to spray water with their trunks.
It helps them cool off from the hot sun.
Can you imagine the elephant slurping up water from a nearby pond? and then splashing it all over its body.
Splash, splash, splash. Oh, I think I had a splash too.
My tummy isn't feeling so heavy anymore.
I guess I couldn't keep the squeeze feeling for that long.
Oh no! It's okay, accidents happen. Potty time takes practice.
Yeah, I can try again. The next time I feel the heavy, full feeling in my tummy.
When you wanna give up, try again Keep on trying, keep on trying accidents happen.
We can always clean ourselves up and try again next time.
When you wanna give up, try again Keep on trying, keep on trying For now, let's keep on trying to find animals on safari.
What other animal can we find? Let's look around Look around Look around And see what can be found I imagine I see a very tall animal.
It has long legs and a long neck. and brown spots.
A giraffe. Yeah. Can you see a giraffe in your mind?
Standing tall out in the grassy plains. I'm as tall as a giraffe Look at me, tall as a giraffe Look at me, tall as a giraffe Look at me Hello down there.
Oh! Speaking of down there... I think I have that heavy, full feeling in my tummy again.
Okay, even though I'm having lots of fun with imagination time, I'm going to take a deep breath. and really listen to my body to see how it feels.
Oh, yep, it's potty time! When I gotta go I stop what I'm doing I go to the party and I sit right down Now I can relax my body and let my tummy melt.
Out three, two, one... We did it! Look at me Sitting on the party Tweedle-dee-dee Sitting on the party I'm a big kid Sitting on the party It's potty time.
This calls for a celebration! Confetti! Stickers!
Dance party! Hooray! Look at me, sitting on the potty Tweedledee Dee, sitting on the potty I'm a big kid, sitting on the potty It's party time We did potty time and imagination time.
That was a lot of fun and I hope it was helpful for all our friends learning about potty time too.
Remember to listen to your body for that heavy feeling.
And when you feel it, You can give your tummy a squeeze until you can relax on the potty for potty time.
Sometimes accidents happen. And it's okay.
It takes practice. And you can always try again next time.
We'll be back again next time too, for more imagination time.
Until then, let's say goodbye all together.
