Our little Natalie
Got ready for Cancún.
She grabbed a backpack and a suitcase,
So many things! What's in there?
A crossword, so she won't be bored,
And beads to string a bracelet's cord!
There's Emma the doll and a crocodile too,
He's plush and cuddly, and cute as can be!
Here are balloons, bright and round.
― Why do you need them?
― I'll release them to the sky,
And send you letters as they fly!
― Well, that's nice. And what else?
― A bear-shaped backpack on my shoulder,
A mermaid, and of course, a cat,
And right beside them, a plush raccoon.
And about fifteen magazines, or so,
The rest had to stay behind,
They just won't fit, oh no, oh no!
― Where can it all possibly go?
― Hand me the backpack! It helped so much:
In goes the pail, in goes the shovel,
And sand moulds for the beach, and such,
Plus two little socks for the puppy, too.
Our little Natalie
Wanted to go to Cancún,
But she was so small,
So she only took her toys along.
Don't cry, little Natalie!
You left your dresses behind,
But there'll be a whole new wardrobe,
Just clap your hands, and you'll be fine.
But don't forget, from now on,
Clothes are important, so you know!
