Discussion
Keep the conversation going after the episode. Here are a few questions to ask your little one.
Think about the last time your dog wagged its tail. What do you think it was trying to tell you?
你回想一下你家狗狗上次摇尾巴的时候，你觉得它想告诉你什么？If your tail could show your feelings the way a dog's does, what would it be doing right now?
如果你也有一条尾巴，能表达你现在的心情，你觉得它会怎么摇？What's something you can tell about how a person feels just by watching them, without them saying a word?
你能不能光看一个人的样子，不用他说话，就猜出他现在的心情？
