Now let’s review the vocabulary

A playground is an outdoor area where children can play. This area usually includes special equipment such as swings, slides and seesaws.
A skateboard is a small board with wheels on the bottom that a person stands on and uses to move across a smooth surface by pushing one foot against the ground.
A helmet is a hard hat worn to protect the head.
A swing is a seat hanging from chains or ropes that moves back and forth and is often used by children.
A seesaw is a long board that is balanced in the middle. Children play on a seesaw by sitting on each end and using their feet to push the seesaw up and down. (A seesaw is also called a teeter-totter.)
Monkey bars are bars in a structure that children can climb and swing on. Children can swing from bar to bar like monkeys in a tree that swing from branch to branch.
Only if: This is used to express a command or a requirement. For example: You can have dessert only if you eat all of your dinner.
