Little Bean does one. You do the same one. That is the whole book.

A big smile. Arms out to the sides. Arms all the way up, then just one. Reach for something. Lean over, not too far. Jump, with both feet off the floor. Sleepy eyes. Very, very still.
Ten things to copy, and they come down in order — loud and big at the start, quiet at the end — because a body that is already going fast cannot be talked into stillness.
Nothing to read. Nothing to get right. A child who only wants one of them, eleven times, has used the whole book.

Then, at the back, it turns around. You do one — any one, make it up — and Big Bean copies you.

For grown-ups: this one needs two people. A child copying a face or a shape is doing something a child on their own cannot do, and it works long before a child can follow an instruction or look anything up. The reversal at the end matters more than any of the poses: being matched by a steady grown-up is the part that does the work. There is a note for parents, teachers and SENCOs at the back, and a page listing every pose so they can be used any time, without the book.

From the Little Signals world: quiet stories and tools that help small humans notice their signals and find their way back to steady. No quick fixes. No hype. Regulation before optimisation.
