Yarn Pumpkins

纱线南瓜

Nina stomped her boots on the floor. Her mom had forgotten to pack her sneakers. So she had to wear these hot boots all day. Nina’s baby sister, Lulu, took up most of Mom’s time now. “ Baby first, ” her mom always said. “ Nina, please join us for the craft, ” Miss Shelly said.

妮娜把靴子踩在地板上。 她妈妈忘了带运动鞋，所以她不得不整天穿着这双热靴。 妮娜的小妹妹露露现在占了妈妈的大部分时间。 “宝贝优先，”她妈妈总是说。 “妮娜，请加入我们的行列，”雪莉小姐说。

Nina slowly walked over. The table was covered in orange, brown, and green. “ It looks like a pumpkin patch! ” Izzie said. “ We’re going to make yarn pumpkins, ” Miss Shelly said. “ Everyone will work with a partner. The pumpkins have to dry overnight, so it will take two days. “ Bobby, I’ll work with you. ”

妮娜慢慢地走了过来。桌子上覆盖着橙色、棕色和绿色。 “它看起来像一块南瓜地！”伊兹说。 “我们要做纱南瓜，”雪莉小姐说。 “每个人都会和一个合作伙伴一起工作。南瓜要干一夜，所以需要两天。” “鲍比，我会和你一起工作。”

Izzie and Jason were partners. Ethan looked at Nina. “ Want to be partners?” Nina blushed. “ Okay. ” She looked at the instructions. “ First, blow up a balloon about halfway. This will be the size of your pumpkin. ” Nina blew up her balloon halfway.

伊兹和杰森是搭档。伊森看着尼娜。“想成为合作伙伴吗？” 妮娜脸红了。“好的。”她看着说明书。 “首先，把一个气球吹到一半。这将是你的南瓜大小。” 妮娜把气球吹到了一半。

“ Tie a piece of yarn to the balloon and hang it from a stick, ” Ethan said. Nina tied the string while Ethan held the stick. “ Great. Now dunk one string of yarn into your glue bowl, ” Miss Shelly said. “ You can use a plastic fork to help with the dipping. ”

“在气球上绑一根纱线把它挂在棍子上，”伊森说。 妮娜系着绳子，伊森拿着棍子。 雪莉小姐说：“太好了。现在把一根线塞进你的胶碗里。” “你可以用塑料叉子来帮助蘸水。”

Nina gently slid the yarn through the plastic fork. She giggled as she dipped. “ This part is fun! ” “ One partner holds the stick. The other wraps the yarn around the balloon. " " Carefully press the yarns’ ends down on the balloon. They must stick, ” Miss Shelly said.

尼娜轻轻地将纱线穿过塑料叉。 她蘸水时咯咯笑了起来。“这部分很有趣！” “一个伙伴拿着棍子。另一个伙伴把纱线缠绕在气球上。” 雪莉小姐说：“小心地将纱线的末端压在气球上。它们必须粘住。”
