Reading:

"The Family Picnic"

The Johnson family was getting ready for a picnic in the park. They packed sandwiches, snacks, and most importantly, drinks. Sarah checked the fridge and asked, “What drinks do we have?”

Her mom replied, “We have two bottles of water, a few cans of soda, and some orange juice.”

Sarah nodded and said, “That’s perfect! Everyone will have something they like. Can we also bring some cups so we can share the juice?”

At the park, after playing frisbee, the family sat down for lunch. It was a hot day, so they drank a lot of water. Sarah’s brother, Jake, opened a can of soda and offered it to their dad. “Do you want some soda, Dad?”

Their dad smiled, “No thanks, I’ll stick with water. It’s too hot for soda.”

After lunch, they finished the orange juice and enjoyed the rest of their afternoon under the shade of the trees, glad they had brought plenty of drinks to stay hydrated in the sun.
