CVCV Word Story
Kiki woke up with a happy face. Her mama made yummy waffles for breakfast. Dada was ready to take her to the city today. Kiki’s baby brother Momo was still in his crib. He was very tiny and cute. Mama put him in the mini car seat for the ride.
When they got to the city, they saw a yellow taxi zoom by. Dada was a hero and helped a lady find her way. Kiki and Momo ate lunch at a cafe. Kiki had a taco, and Momo had some miso soup. For a treat, they got jelly with berries on top. It was so yummy!
After lunch, they went to the park. Kiki played with a hula hoop and saw a pony ride. Momo was too little for the pony, but he laughed at the silly faces Kiki made. Later, they sat on a comfy sofa in a bookstore and read stories. Dada bought Kiki a new lego set with zero money because he had a gift card.
On the way home, they saw a super hero movie poster. Kiki said she wanted to learn judo like the hero in the movie. Mama said maybe when she was older. For dinner, they had tuna and rice with kiwi for dessert. Polo, their pet fish, got fish food. Kiki was so tired after their busy day that she fell asleep on the sofa. Dada carried her to bed, and Mama tucked in baby Momo. It had been the most happy day!
