Princess and the Pea story
  • The Princess and the Pea

The prince and his family certainly were fooled by the appearance of the rain drenched princess that showed up at their door. But a single detail, the pea under the many mattresses, revealed her sensitive and royal nature.

After listening to this story, discuss with the class;

  1. Something or someone that could fool us with a first impression, i.e. A new student in school that is quiet and keeps to themselves perhaps they are friendly but shy at first.
  2. Why did the prince place the pea under the mattress?
  3. Empathy is another topic that can be discussed. How did the Princess feel when no one believed who she was?
  4. Ask the students to find out about sensitivity in their own and their classmates lives. Ask them “What are you sensitive about? What is your friend sensitive about?”
