on a sidewalk. The cart slides out like a telescope. Each cart
has 250 activities. The educators also pass on a lot of ACTIVE/EDUCATE
important information to the kids about health care and INFORM
community services. Most of the activities are set up as SERVE/ACTIVE
games so that learning is fun and relaxed. The kids also have LEARN
chances to express themselves through puppetry and other
creative occupations. It helps them deal with sad and CREATE
scary things that have happened in their lives. SCARE
