What Is in Going to the Mela? (Class 3 EVS Chapter 2)
- Before a trip, we get ready. Nita and Radha fill their water bottles and pack a special bag.
- We care for our elders. Nita holds Dadiji’s hand. Everyone helps her onto the bus, and she gets a wheelchair at the mela.
- We travel safely. Walk carefully and watch the vehicles on the road. In the bus, sit in your seat and keep your hands and head inside.
- A mela is full of fun — toys, bangles, the merry-go-round, the giant wheel, a magic show and tasty food.
- A mela also keeps people safe. There is a Lost and Found booth with volunteers, an ambulance, a fire engine, a police jeep and a police dog.
- A sketch (map) shows where places are and which roads join them.
