Come along, young ones, let's go outside
Where the otters swim and the waves collide
We'll run and play, and laugh in the sun
And make some memories, oh so fun!

But before we go, we need to prepare
We'll pack some snacks, and bring some gear
We'll need an oven to bake some treats
And an onion to add some flavor, oh so sweet

And when we arrive, we'll explore the shore
We'll look for shells and so much more
Perhaps we'll even spot an octopus
Crawling on the rocks, so curious!

So let's turn off the oven, and lock the door
And head outside, to have some fun once more
With our snacks and gear, and our happy faces
We'll make some memories in the sun and wide open spaces!

Reflections

1. What did the kids pack for their adventure outside?
2. What creatures did they see when they arrived at the shore?
3. Why did they need an onion and an oven?
4. How do you think the otters felt swimming in the waves?
5. Can you imagine what it would be like to play on the beach with an octopus?
