Read together
In a place of wonder, so bright and new
There's a magical world, waiting for you
With a fountain that sprays, so high and grand
And a swan that glides, across the land
Rest on a hammock, so soft and still
And follow the guidepost, up the hill
See the streetlight, glowing so bright
And sit on the bench, with all your might
Up in the sky, a balloon floats by
As you walk by the lake, with a big, big sigh
Jump in the paddling pool, with a splash
And let your worries, turn into ash
In this world of wonder, you'll have so much fun
Your imagination will fly, like a bird on the run
So come on over, let's go and play
In this magical world, where dreams come to stay.
Talk about it
Reflection

- Have you ever seen a streetlight glowing at night? What color was it?
- If you could have a balloon that could take you anywhere, where would you want to go?
- Why do you think it's important to take time to relax on a hammock or sit on a bench?
- What animals do you think live in and around a lake?
- Have you ever been in a paddling pool? What did you like about it?
- If you could create your own magical world, what would it look like and what fun activities would you include in it?
