Do you know what a train sounds like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever ridden on a train before?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Train\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I am an ant and my name is Timmy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Timmy<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We have to walk down our anthill to get anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Anthill\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

My Aunt Pickles took me to the park one day. Girls were playing on swings and slides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Mae<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I got to swing once, but it was kind of scary for a little ant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Timmy<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I also got to slide too, which was fast and only a little scary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Winter<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Today, I went to the park and I saw a little boy playing with a toy train. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Boy<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He picked me up and put me onto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Timmy<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He moved the train around and around saying, “Chugga, chugga, chugga, WOO WOO!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That was a lot of fun! He then put me on the red caboose and around I went again. “WOO WOO!” I cried out loud too. “Chugga, chugga, chugga!” Areean said aloud. He told me that on a real train the engine has a whistle that blows with the WOO WOO sound. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Timmy<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It was now time for me to go home. I hope someday I get to ride a real train and they let me blow the train whistle. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
