A chair for you to sit and learn,
A pen to write, a pencil to turn.
An eraser for when you make a mistake,
A table to hold all that you take.

A bag to keep your things inside,
So you can take them on your daily ride.
A place to store your books and toys,
And all the other things you enjoy.

So come on down and take a seat,
It's time to learn and be so neat.
With chair, pen, eraser, pencil too,
You'll be ready for all that you must do!
