Becky: Billy, it is winter today.

Billy: Becky, yes, it is not fall. It is winter.

Becky: It is cold outside, Billy.

Billy: Becky, it is very cold.

Becky: Billy, it is so cold that my gingerbread girl may freeze.

Billy: It is that cold, Becky.

Becky: Billy, if she freezes, she may break.

Billy: Becky, we can run. The gingerbread girl can run. Running will keep us warm.

Becky: Let's run, Billy! Let's run, Gingerbread Girl!

There are so many ways to make reading fun. Reading a play is one way. The kids love this one and it's great for splitting the boys and girls up for choral reading.

It's even more fun if you decorate cookies too.
