What Is It?
#Z -BVSB 1VSEJF 4BMBT t "SU CZ )JSPF /BLBUB
The trees are covered in frosty white.
But something’s moving—red and bright.
Snow transforms a backyard or
park into a white backdrop, making
colors stand out. Have fun talking
about all the colors you see.
Is that my mitten? I lost it today.
No! It’s a redbird, flying away.

Have fun talking about everything
you see in this snowy scene.
And then talk about what you’d do
together if you were in this park.

Here, little baby, take my hand.
Ready, steady, up you stand!
It’s such a joy to watch resilient little ones
get up and try again as they learn something new.
Enjoy sharing this sweet story with your toddler.
One step, two steps.. .
oops, don’t stop.
Wibble, wobble—
down you plop!
