Good morning, boys and girls. Today we are going to talk about something that makes us sad. What makes you sad? (let them answer) I need to talk to you about dying. Do you know about dying? (let them answer) Things die all of the time, don't they? Flowers die, bugs die, fish die, and a lot of other things die. It doesn't make us happy when our flowers or fish die, but we get over it, don't we?
