The Surprise in My School Bag

After school on Friday, I went to Kim’s house.

First, we had a banana and a drink of milk.

Then, we ran outside to play on the swings. Kim pushed me and I went up high.

Next, we went inside to read some books. I had a present for Kim in my school bag.

Kim opened her present. She got a big surprise. It was a new book about horses.

Kim loved her new book.

Helping Mum

This morning, I did lots of things to help mum at home.

First, I got dressed and I made my bed.

Then, I put my clean clothes in the big cupboard. I put my toys away, too.

Next, I went into the kitchen and I fed the cat.

After I had my breakfast, I got ready for school. I put my lunch and my books in my bag.

Mum was very pleased with me. I liked helping mum.
