Kavi's Light-Helper Hunt

Kavi flies through the house looking for jobs that light does 🔎. A reading lamp 💡 helps Grandpa read his book. A torch 🔦 helps Kavi find a toy under the bed in the dark. Outside, a traffic light 🚦 keeps people safe. "Light does so many jobs," hoots Kavi. "It helps us see, read and stay safe — let's find where light helps!"
