played with them from morning to evening. We played games outdoors, dressed up as cowboys and rode around
on our tricycles (
三轮车

幼儿园

me at first. I felt very sad about having to leave my mother each morning. I cried and wanted my mother around.
As the days went by, however, I made friends easily in my class. I became happy again and looked forward to
leaving my house each morning. I still remember those days when I was learning to ride a bicycle. I fell several
times but I never gave up. Finally, I was able to join my friends riding around on my bike. Another memory I like
is the end-of-year concert held at the kindergarten. I was chosen to play the role(
