want to take a nap. Unfortuantely, he doesn’t have a bed. All he has is a bag
of blocks. As he looks at their
different shapes, he begins to understand their names: rectangle, square, etc. He
decides that he can build a bed, but soon realizes that there aren’t enough of
each shape to make a bed for napping. As he begins to maneuver the blocks, he
soon deduces that he can make a bed using the shapes he has.
