Bridget Learns Self-Control
Lyrics, Music, and Production by BookSong/Speak Up Talk Radio
Bridget Kimble hopped on the bus,
Bright-eyed, brave, and not a fuss.
At school, there were teachers with big smiles,
Lining up the kids in rows and aisles.
Ms. Widget said, “Let’s meet today,
Say your name and what you like to play!”
Bridget stood, her heart so wide,
But someone else popped up with pride.
Stop and think, then choose what’s right,
Bridget shines pink bunny bright.
With patience, heart, and steady soul,
She’s learning about self-control!
She felt upset—it was her chance!
So she spoke up and took a stance:
“It’s my turn, you have to wait.
She took a breath to stop the debate
Ms. Widget smiled and softly said,
“Bridget’s right—but go ahead.”
Stop and think, then choose what’s right,
Bridget shines pink bunny bright.
With patience, heart, and steady soul,
She’s learning about self-control!
Ms. Widget paused and told the crew,
“There’s something brave that Bridget knew.
She felt a feeling, took control,
And that, my friends, is a mighty goal.”
She could’ve stomped or shouted loud,
But instead, she stood so strong and proud.
She felt her feelings, let them go—
That’s how self-control can grow!
So Bridget smiled and thought that day,
“I’ve learned so much along the way.”
She couldn’t wait to get back home—
To tell her folks how far she’d grown!
Stop and think, then choose what’s right,
Bridget shines pink bunny bright.
With patience, heart, and steady soul,
She’s learning about self-control!
