Look at the small houses.
I eat and sleep on the airplane.
“Go down. Go down.”
Airplane travel is an adventure! Before boarding, it’s fun to watch through the terminal
window as planes take o and land. When you arrive, who will be waiting for you?
Here’s Grandma!

POEM Car Ride
Get into my car seat.
Buckle up. Snap!
Tighten up my seat belt,
A toy in my lap.
“Ready, set, go,”
I say with a clap!
This naughty teddy bear is not in a car seat. Ask your
child if that’s silly! You can praise your child for being
smarter than Teddy.

STORY Going

to own
Clippety-clop, clippety-clop,
horses pull our buggy into town.
People gather around our stand.
They buy our fruits and veggies.
Many young children have never seen a horse and buggy. Point out how the horse pulls,
just as your child may pull a toy. The family in the story uses a horse and wagon instead of
a truck to carry things.
Clippety-clop, clippety-clop,
we ride our buggy home.
