Explanation

The value: take care of pets and animals. They need clean water and food. An adult helps when you take a dog for a walk; do not touch strange animals. Wash your hands after playing with an animal. To offer help: “Should I feed the parrot?” Answer: “Yes, please.” or “No, thanks. But you can clean the bird cage.” Sound: “cr” is two consonants read together: crab, cry, cream, cross.
