When Rest Comes First in German

“When Rest Comes First” helps you recognise tiredness, excitement and other limits during everyday baby care, and name them kindly in German. Practise the B2 pattern zu + adjective or adverb + um ... zu to explain why something is too much right now, then offer a pause, comfort or a simpler option. Your baby or toddler can listen and respond with a look, movement, sound or single word; no spoken answer is needed.
