Bedtime Story Swap: They Tell, You Draw

Why it works
Role‑swap boosts agency and attention. Drawing slows the moment and encodes memories you can revisit later.
How to do it
Child narrates for 2 minutes. You doodle as they speak. Then swap or add one panel tomorrow. Keep it silly, not perfect.
Make it a series
Collect pages in a folder. On weekends, 'publish' a tiny book. Track story‑swap nights in Mom&Dad Tracker.
