Read together
Trainers on your feet, snug and neat
A ring for playtime, don't be late
Helmet on your head, safe and sound
With boots to protect, on the ground.
A belt around your waist, to hold your pants
And a swimsuit for fun in the summer dance
With a scarf to keep warm, on a cool day
You'll be dressed for adventure, come what may.
So run and jump, skip and hop
With all your gear, you won't stop
For fun and games, you're all set
With your trainers, ring, helmet, and all the rest.
Talk about it
