Waiting While Riding in the Car

Insert picture of your child or student here.

My name is _________________.

Sometimes, I ride in the car with my mom or dad.


The car is moving most of the time. But sometimes, we have to stop and wait.


There might be lots of cars on the road. This is called a traffic jam or being stuck in traffic.


A traffic jam means that there is not enough room for all of the cars to drive fast. We drive slowly so that we can

share the road with other cars.


Another time we stop and wait in the car is at a stop sign or red light.


At a stop sign or red light, the cars take turns driving. My mom or dad knows when it is our turn to drive.


Another time we wait in the car is if there is road construction.


Road construction means that people are fixing something on the road.


Cars have to slow down or stop to drive by the road construction workers and vehicles.


I will try to be patient while I wait in the car. I can read, listen to music, or draw while I wait.


I am learning about waiting while riding in the car.

Notes for Parents/Teachers• It is best to customize this story for each individual child by incorporating

the child’s name and photos and altering any words and pictures to best meet your child’s learning needs and preferences.

• The point chart on the last page of the story can be printed and used to reward the child for appropriate waiting behavior. Explain to the child before you ride in the car what this looks like by reading the story, and telling the child what he or she could do to show “good waiting behavior.” Examples might be using polite words, waiting quietly, or drawing, reading, or engaging in another preferred activity while waiting. Change the picture at the bottom of the chart to reflect something the child would like to earn. Give points (in the form of stickers, checkmarks, etc. on the chart) frequently while the child is waiting nicely. When each box on the chart is filled, the reward is earned. You can alter the number of boxes as needed.
