Social stories: waiting my turn, a new place and big feelings in three styles

Social stories — six panels in two rows telling one waiting story — children playing at a slide, the child arriving at the back of the queue, the child standing still with hands folded, the child watching another go down, the child at the front of the queue, and the child sliding with a wide smile — a blank text band under each panel, a bright flat classroom illustration, bold clean shapes with even outlines, gradient-free fills and friendly figures across a range of skin tones

Reading 1Waiting my turn
Reading 2Going somewhere new
Reading 3Big feelings

A social story walks a child through a situation, one panel at a time. These nine cover waiting my turn, going somewhere new, and a big feeling, each a six-panel sequence with the same child carried through, drawn bright, pastel, or blackline. Every text band is left blank to write in your own words. Ask for a dentist visit instead and the same panel structure redraws.

  • a social story for a new routine or transition
  • a waiting-my-turn story for the classroom
  • a big-feelings coping story
  • a special education visual support
  • a homeschool social-emotional learning activity

Frequently asked questions

What size and format do these print at?
Each sheet prints landscape A4 proportions (1216 by 832) with six panels in reading order.
Are the words already written in?
No -- every text band is left blank, so a teacher or caregiver writes the story in their own words, paced to the child.
Is the same child shown throughout?
Yes -- the same figure is carried unchanged from panel to panel so the six read as one story in order.
Can I get a dentist-visit story instead?
Yes -- the direction field is exactly for that: type the situation and the same six-panel structure redraws around it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
