Ages 4–7 · 6 pages · Lesson: Sharing the way🌉
There was a narrow bridge over a river. Only one goat could cross at a time.
🐐
One day, a white goat started crossing from one side.
🐐
At the same time, a black goat started crossing from the other side.
😤
They met in the middle. “Move!” said one. “No, YOU move!” said the other.
💥
They pushed and pushed. Splash! Both goats fell into the river.
🤝
The next day they met again. This time the white goat lay down, and the black goat stepped over gently. Both crossed safely.
