The Wisdom of Bright Smiles
Join 8-year-old Sammy on a colorful adventure as he faces a series of challenges to overcome his bad oral habits. With wisdom and determination, Sammy learns valuable lessons that lead to a healthier and brighter smile.
Sammy loved to smile, but lately, his teeth were looking a bit crooked. His dentist said it was because of his thumb-sucking habit. Sammy felt embarrassed and wanted to fix it. He decided that he had to stop sucking his thumb, but it was harder than he thought. Sammy sighed, " - I want my smile to be the best it can be."
Sammy tried to keep his thumb out of his mouth all day. But at night, when he was sleepy, his thumb found its way back. " - I can't help it!" Sammy groaned to his teddy bear. His thumb felt so comforting, especially when he was tired. He knew he needed a plan to stop.
The next day, Sammy decided to wear gloves to bed. But the gloves were itchy and made him toss and turn all night. " - Maybe this isn't the right way," he muttered. Then, when he tried to stop biting his nails, he realized how much he did it while watching TV. " - How will I ever stop?" he worried.
Feeling defeated, Sammy thought about giving up. He sat in his room, staring at his reflection. " - I guess I'll never have a perfect smile," he said sadly. But deep down, he didn't want to give up. He just needed some help.
Sammy's older sister, Mia, noticed his struggle. " - Why not try a reward chart?" she suggested. "Every day you don't suck your thumb or bite your nails, you earn a star!" Sammy's eyes lit up. " - That's a great idea, Mia!" he exclaimed, feeling hopeful again.
With Mia's help, Sammy stuck to his plan. Each star on the chart made him more determined. Finally, Sammy could see a big difference in his smile. " - I did it! My smile is getting better!" he cheered. Sammy learned that wisdom comes from trying new solutions and not giving up.
