Get ready

Large model map, S3-map-sign cards, blank key and Week 13 traffic evidence.

Safety

A grown-up chooses a safe accessible route and stays close; hold hands near streets. Stay away from traffic, wildlife, unknown plants and standing water; use photos indoors if needed.
Only a grown-up uses scissors or cuts cardboard. Keep small pieces out of mouths; use large cards.

Story time
