Sock Sorting Adventure: Gather a collection of socks with different colors, patterns, and lengths. Ask the children to sort them into different categories, such as by color, size, or pattern. Encourage them to describe the socks using words like “long,” “short,” “red,” or “spotted.” This activity helps children practice categorization and descriptive language.
Animal Movement Imitation: Invite the children to mimic the movements of the cat and dog from the story. They can pretend to swing like the cat on curtains, walk like a model, or chase their tails like the dog. Discuss how each animal moves differently and ask them to think about why they might move that way. This activity promotes physical activity and observation skills.
Neighborhood Watch: Take the children on a short walk around the school or their neighborhood. Ask them to look for animals and observe what they are doing. Encourage them to share their observations, such as “I see a bird flying” or “There’s a dog playing fetch.” This activity helps children connect the story to real-life experiences and enhances their observation skills.

**Transcript:**
Who’s that cat from a cardboard box?
Wrestling warm and borrowed socks.
The red ones, the ones with spots,
Long ones, short ones, a lot and lots.
Who’s that cat practicing for great escapes,
Swinging on the window drapes?
Words or words, oh what fun,
Circus antics in the sun.
Who’s that cat making friends, a fishy bunch,
Taking someone out for lunch?
Eyes like saucers, paws so wet,
Empty tummy, no food yet.
Who’s that cat laughing,
Unwinding paper by the mile,
Laying dress-up bathroom style?
Bottles roll and spill and bubble,
Piles of mess spell lots of trouble.
Who’s that cat runway walking,
Tippy toes smashing faces down below?
Oops, there goes a china cup,
Left for others to clean up.
Who’s that cat sharpening those claws,
Scratching marks all down the chair?
Up and down to keep nails nice,
Ready for those birds and mice.
Who’s that cat feeling famished, cannot wait,
Stealing supper from the plate?
Whiskers twitch, a sniff, a lick,
Out the cat door, double quick.
Who’s that cat climbing high as high can be,
Getting stuck up in a tree?
Health is coming, just sit pretty,
Cat’s eye view across the city.
Who’s that cat keeping guard,
Beating Rover out for good,
Waking up the neighborhood?
Who’s that cat sorting through the garbage can,
Dirty footprints on the car,
Favorite thing to do by far?
Who’s that cat snoozing in the kitchen sink,
Popping up for a cooling drink?
Vapors, flowers chewed to shreds,
Roaming about the garden beds.
Who’s that cat clean, cozy in a lap,
Stretching, ready for a nap?
Bugs and cuddles, soft dispers,
Snuggle tight and purr, purr, purr.
And that’s my cat.
Who’s that dog waking early?
Down I race, bouncing, panting, licking face.
So excited, time to play,
We’ll have lots of fun today.
Who’s that dog fetching?
It’s my favorite trick,
Bringing back a ball or stick.
Branches, logs, or half a tree,
No stick is too big, you see.
Who’s that dog at the river, pond, or neighbor’s pool?
Any place that’s fresh and cool.
Leaping in a big blue lake,
Feeling soggy, need a shake.
Who’s that dog playing with a pretty shoe,
Licking first, then time to chew?
No big deal, I’m sure it’s fine,
Finders keepers, this one’s mine.
Who’s that dog digging out the deepest hole,
Scratching dirt just like a mole?
Dug this on my very own,
Big enough to hide a bone.
Who’s that dog walking past the bathroom sink,
Feeling thirsty, need a drink?
Head down quick, that’s how I roll,
Slurping from the toilet bowl.
Who’s that dog sitting by the table leg,
Asking’s naughty, must not beg?
Puppy, I say, pretty please,
Can you drop that piece of cheese?
Who’s that dog napping on my favorite bed,
Open mouth and snoring head?
Counting cats is fun, it seems,
Paws do wiggle in those dreams.
Who’s that dog letting out a stinky toot?
Not to blame and looking cute.
How dreadful, who did that?
Must have been the naughty cat.
Who’s that dog finding squirrels in the park,
Chasing them until it’s dark?
Left and right, in here and there,
Climbed up high, that’s not fair.
Who’s that dog looking back toward my rear,
Spotting something wagging here?
Grab it quick, now must not fail,
Silly me, it’s just my tail.
Who’s that dog sitting quietly on the rug,
Getting ready for a hug?
Waiting for the day to end,
At last, I’m with my favorite friend.
That’s my dog.
