Go outside with a grown-up and look for the kinds of places Bob might like. Search for leaf piles, shady shrubs, soft soil, fallen berries, mushrooms, and low hiding spots.
Draw a simple map of one corner of the yard from Bob’s point of view. Add:
one shady hiding place,
one food spot,
one damp place after rain,
and one danger Bob should avoid.
Think About It: If you were only a few inches tall, what parts of a yard would feel huge or scary?
Grandma’s reminder:
“Bob is not lazy because he moves slow. He is just thorough, and frankly that leaf pile deserves a proper inspection.”
This is what the printed page will look like.
