How it works
Our bodies need water to work. It helps us run, think and grow.
When we are thirsty, our body is asking for water.
We drink water when we are thirsty and after we play.
Worked examples
Thirsty? Tell a grown-up
- Kit's mouth feels dry.
- He says, I am thirsty.
- His grown-up pours a cup of clean water, and glug, glug, glug!
After play
- Kit runs and jumps at the park.
- After playing, he drinks water.
- Water makes him feel perky, like a flower after rain.
Fill a bottle
- At home, fill a bottle at the tap.
- Put it in your backpack to take along.
- Sip when you are thirsty.
Not pond water
- Dot the duck asks, will you drink my pond water?
- No, thank you. The pond is for ducks to swim in.
- We drink clean water from a cup or a bottle.
