The sun peeks in. Good morning, light! Good morning, room! Zippy Zapata opens his eyes. He is warm in his puffy blue bed. A new day is here!
Step one! Zippy Zapata stretches up, up, UP! He stretches his arms high. He stretches his legs long. Stretch, stretch, stretch! Big stretches help his body wake up.
Step two! Time to go potty. Zippy Zapata sits and waits. Good job, Zippy! Going potty is part of the magic morning. Can you go potty too?
Step three! Wash, wash, wash your hands! Zippy Zapata uses bubbly soap. Rub, rub, rub. The bubbles go swish, swish, swish! Clean hands are happy hands.
Step four! Brush, brush, brush your teeth! Zippy Zapata moves his toothbrush in gentle circles. Round and round and round. Gentle circles clean the best! His teeth go sparkle, sparkle, sparkle!
Step five! Time to get dressed! Zippy Zapata pulls on his soft red shirt. He pulls on his blue pants. He puts on one purple shoe. But wait… where is the other purple shoe?
Oh no! Zippy Zapata looks here. He looks there. No shoe! Where is it? Is it under the bed? No. Is it on the rug? No. The shoe is lost!
Zippy Zapata stops. He takes a big, deep breath in… and a slow breath out. Ahhhh. When something is tricky, stop and breathe. A calm wizard thinks best!
Zippy Zapata thinks. He looks slowly. He looks calmly. He peeks behind the friendly window curtain and… there it is! The purple shoe! He solved the puzzle!
Two purple shoes on two happy feet! Zippy Zapata did it! When something is lost, take a breath and look calmly. You can solve it, just like a wizard!
Step six! Time for breakfast! Zippy Zapata eats yummy toast with berries. Munch, munch, munch! Crunch, crunch, crunch! Breakfast gives him energy for a big day.
Zippy Zapata opens the front door. The world is bright and wide. Birds sing. The wind is soft. Every morning is a fresh adventure, waiting just for him. What will today bring?
