Your child sees that people can make a place messy or clean. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 48

People change the places around them. We can make a place messy, or we can make it clean.
If we drop trash, the park gets messy. Animals can get hurt.
If we pick trash up, the park is clean and nice again.

Try it with a grown-up! Look at a room before and after you tidy it. What changed?
