What you entered

We went to the playground and my kid fell and scraped her knee. I comforted her and put a band-aid on. Then she didn't want to leave so I said five more minutes.

Scene 1: When she fell down

Oh no! Are you okay? Let me see.

It's just a little boo-boo. You're so brave!

Let's put a band-aid on it. All better!

lightbulb

boo-boo = kid word for a small injury. No parent says "wound."

Scene 2: Time to go home

Five more minutes, then we gotta go, okay?

I know you don't wanna leave. It's so fun here!

We'll come back tomorrow! Pinky promise.

lightbulb

gotta go = casual "have to go." Natural for kids.
