一天， 小兔邦尼在吃早餐時不小心把糖漿灑到了桌子上，媽媽告訴他下次要小心一些。而妹妹把煎餅扣在頭上，媽媽只是開懷大笑。午餐時間，邦尼忍不住打了個嗝，爸爸問邦尼：“你該說什么？”邦尼連忙道歉?？墒牵妹么蛄巳梧?，爸爸就像沒聽到似的。邦尼心想：“有時候，做哥哥并不好?！蓖盹堖^后，妹妹該睡覺了。邦尼還有很多時間可以玩。邦尼心想：“有時候，做哥哥也挺好的！”

One morning， Little Bunny accidentally spilled pancake syrup on the table. Mama said，“Try to be more careful， Little Bunny.”

When little Bunny burped during lunch， Papa said， “What do you say， Little Bunny？”

“Excuse me，” said Little Bunny.

But after lunch， when Baby Bunny burped three times， Papa didnt even notice！

Sometimes its no fun being the older one， thought Little Bunny.

After supper， Mama lifted Baby Bunny from her high chair. “Bedtime， Baby Bunny，” said Mama.

“Good night， Baby Bunny，” said Little Bunny， giving his little sister a big kiss.

But Little Bunny had lots of time before he had to go to bed.

He played with his cars and trucks.

Then Papa and Little Bunny read his favorite book.

And he still had time to color in his coloring book.

Little Bunny thought， Sometimes， its nice to be the older one.

親子閱讀小提示：

隨著中國生育政策的全面放開，有兩個孩子的家庭越來越多。對于家里的第一個孩子來說，如果有了弟弟或妹妹，會擔心自己失去爸爸媽媽的愛，擔心原本屬于自己的東西被分享，擔心父母對自己的要求高于弟弟妹妹，等等，因而拒絕改變原有的生活秩序。家里的老大可能會因此變得敏感、情緒不穩(wěn)定。家長應當在日常生活中關注孩子的心理狀態(tài)，積極溝通，及時疏導，引導孩子學會接納家庭新成員，快樂地面對生活帶來的變化。家長可以嘗試用多種積極的方法鼓勵兄弟姐妹相處，讓孩子體驗擁有兄弟姐妹的幸福和做哥哥姐姐的責任與榮耀。
