More About sidewalks
Sidewalks have been around for a long time. They help keep people safe. Long ago, people walked on dirt roads. Now we have nice paths to walk on.
Sidewalks are very good for our day. They help us walk to parks, stores, and schools. We can play and ride bikes on them too.
In the future, sidewalks may have lights. They can be bright at night. This will help keep us safe when it is dark.
