"Ella skal i børnehave".	"Ella is going to kindergarten".
Hej med dig.	Hello there.
Jeg hedder Anders, og jeg skal læse en historie for dig.	My name is Anders, and I am going to read a story for you.
- Tittebøh. - Der har vi minsandten Orm.	- Peekaboo. - There we have Worm, indeed.
Hej, Orm. Vil du være med til at læse en historie?	Hello, Worm. Do you want to join in reading a story?
- Ja, og jeg glæder mig. - Det gør jeg også.	- Yes, and I am looking forward to it. - Me too.
Vi skal nemlig læse den her fantastiske historie -	Because we are going to read this fantastic story -
- som hedder "Ella skal i børnehave".	- which is called "Ella is going to kindergarten".
- Og det her er Ella. - Hun vinker ud ad vinduet.	- And this is Ella. - She is waving out the window.
Ja, hun vinker ud til sin far, som skal af sted på arbejde.	Yes, she is waving to her father, who is going to work.
Og han sender kys i luften til hende.	And he is blowing kisses to her.
Ja, nemlig. Han sender luftkys -	Yes, exactly. He is blowing kisses -
- fordi han håber, at hun får verdens bedste dag i børnehaven.	- because he hopes she will have the best day in kindergarten.
- Tror du ikke? - Jo.	- Don't you think? - Yes.
- Skal vi gå i gang? - Jeg er klar.	- Shall we start? - I am ready.
Er du også klar derude?	Are you ready out there?
Så læser vi historien om Ella, der skal i børnehave.	Then we will read the story about Ella, who is going to kindergarten.
"Nu skal du høre, Ella," siger mor.	"Now listen, Ella," says mom.
"I dag skal vi på besøg i børnehaven."	"Today we are going to visit the kindergarten."
"Du skal jo snart starte, så nu tager vi over og hilser på dem."	"You will start soon, so now we will go over and say hello to them."
Der er mange børn i børnehaven, og de er alle sammen større end Ella.	There are many children in the kindergarten, and they are all bigger than Ella.
Nu tager en af de voksne imod dem.	Now one of the adults welcomes them.
"Hej, jeg hedder Liselotte," siger hun og smiler til Ella.	"Hi, my name is Liselotte," she says and smiles at Ella.
"Du starter snart på Mariehønestuen. Og det glæder vi os til."	"You will soon start in the Mariehønestuen. And we are looking forward to it."
Så snakker hun lidt med mor. Imens kigger Ella på børnene.	Then she talks a bit with mom. Meanwhile, Ella looks at the children.
Hun synes, de råber meget højt.	She thinks they are shouting very loudly.
Uh.	Oh.
Sådan er det jo i børnehaven. Men det er hyggeligt.	That's how it is in kindergarten. But it is cozy.
"Ella, glæder du dig til at komme i børnehave?" spørger far om aftenen.	"Ella, are you looking forward to going to kindergarten?" asks dad in the evening.
Ella ryster på hovedet.	Ella shakes her head.
"Du bliver jo snart tre år," siger mor.	"You will soon be three years old," says mom.
"Du er en stor pige nu, og så skal du gå i børnehave."	"You are a big girl now, and then you will go to kindergarten."
Men Ella synes ikke, hun er særlig stor.	But Ella doesn't think she is very big.
De andre børn i børnehaven er jo større end hende.	The other children in the kindergarten are bigger than her.
"Vi skal have købt en rygsæk," siger mor.	"We need to buy a backpack," says mom.
"Den skal du have med, når du skal på tur med børnehaven."	"You will need it when you go on trips with the kindergarten."
I butikken er der mange rygsække.	In the shop, there are many backpacks.
Og en af dem har en sjov blå elefant foran.	And one of them has a funny blue elephant on the front.
"Jeg vil have den der," siger Ella og peger.	"I want that one," says Ella and points.
Ella er stolt af sin rygsæk, og hun har den på, da de går hjem.	Ella is proud of her backpack, and she wears it as they go home.
I dag er det Ellas første dag i børnehaven.	Today is Ella's first day in kindergarten.
Hun har sin rygsæk på, og hun holder godt fast i mors hånd.	She has her backpack on, and she holds tightly to mom's hand.
I vuggestuen tog en voksen altid imod Ella og sagde hej.	In the nursery, an adult always welcomed Ella and said hello.
Er der slet ikke nogen her?	Is there no one here at all?
Jo, der kommer en. "Hej, jeg hedder Mads," siger han.	Yes, someone comes. "Hi, my name is Mads," he says.
"Her er lidt forvirring i dag. Det må I undskylde."	"There is a bit of confusion today. You must excuse us."
"Kom med, Ella. Så skal jeg vise dig din plads i garderoben."	"Come along, Ella. I will show you your place in the wardrobe."
"Nej, hvor fint," siger mor.	"No, how nice," says mom.
"Prøv at se, Ella. Der står velkommen på tavlen."	"Look, Ella. It says welcome on the board."
"Har du set det skilt med æblet?" siger Mads.	"Have you seen the sign with the apple?" says Mads.
"Bare husk det. Så ved du, hvor dit tøj skal hænge."	"Just remember it. Then you will know where your clothes should hang."
Den første dag skal Ella og mor kun være der et par timer.	On the first day, Ella and mom will only be there for a few hours.
De er med til samling, hvor alle trommer og synger.	They join the gathering, where everyone drums and sings.
Bagefter går mor og Ella hjem.	Afterwards, mom and Ella go home.
Ella synes faktisk, at det har været spændende.	Ella actually thinks it has been exciting.
Næste dag går mor og Ella ind på Mariehønestuen, hvor Ella skal være.	The next day, mom and Ella go into the Mariehønestuen, where Ella will be.
Her er de yngste børn samlet.	Here the youngest children are gathered.
Ella kigger nysgerrigt på dem, men hun holder sig tæt til mor.	Ella looks at them curiously, but she stays close to mom.
Mor viser hende legetøjet. Bagefter snakker hun længe med Liselotte.	Mom shows her the toys. Afterwards, she talks for a long time with Liselotte.
"Nu skal du høre, Ella," siger mor så.	"Now listen, Ella," says mom then.
"Jeg går lige en lille tur. Jeg henter dig lige inden frokost."	"I am going for a little walk. I will pick you up just before lunch."
"Nej, du skal blive her," klynker Ella.	"No, you must stay here," whines Ella.
Så kommer Liselotte og tager Ella op på skødet.	Then Liselotte comes and takes Ella onto her lap.
Og det hjælper faktisk lidt.	And it actually helps a bit.
Næste dag skal far aflevere Ella.	The next day, dad will drop off Ella.
Da de skal sige farvel, så begynder Ella at græde.	When they have to say goodbye, Ella starts to cry.
Hun vil ikke være her uden mor eller far, men så siger Liselotte:	She doesn't want to be here without mom or dad, but then Liselotte says:
"Skal jeg vise dig vinkevinduet?"	"Shall I show you the waving window?"
Så tager hun Ellas hånd, og de går hen til et stort vindue -	Then she takes Ella's hand, and they go to a large window -
- der vender ud mod vejen.	- that faces the road.
"Her kan man stå og vinke farvel," siger Liselotte.	"Here you can stand and wave goodbye," says Liselotte.
Far venter derude. Han vender sig om, og så vinker han til Ella.	Dad waits out there. He turns around and waves to Ella.
Har du prøvet at blive ked af det, når du skal sige farvel til nogen?	Have you ever felt sad when you have to say goodbye to someone?
- Mange gange. - Hvad gør du så?	- Many times. - What do you do then?
Nogle gange kan jeg godt lide at få en stor krammer.	Sometimes I like to get a big hug.
Det kan jeg også godt lide.	I also like that.
Der findes ikke noget bedre end en stor krammer, vel?	There is nothing better than a big hug, right?
Eller ...	Or ...
... farvelkys. Ligesom far gør til Ella.	... goodbye kisses. Just like dad does to Ella.
Det er også rart.	That is also nice.
Lad os gå videre med historien.	Let's continue with the story.
I dag skal Ella spise med til frokost.	Today Ella will eat lunch with them.
Ayla og Mads spiser sammen med børnene. Børnene dækker selv bord.	Ayla and Mads eat with the children. The children set the table themselves.
Ella taber en tallerken, men ingen siger noget til det.	Ella drops a plate, but no one says anything about it.
Efter maden skal de selv tage af bordet.	After the meal, they have to clear the table themselves.
Ayla hælder mælk op, og Ella kigger på sin mad.	Ayla pours milk, and Ella looks at her food.
Hun ved ikke rigtig, hvad det er.	She doesn't really know what it is.
Men hun er hundesulten, så hun smager på det.	But she is very hungry, so she tastes it.
Først en lillebitte bitte bid.	First a tiny little bite.
Det kan godt spises, tænker hun. Og så en stor mundfuld.	It can be eaten, she thinks. And then a big mouthful.
Ella spilder lidt på bordet.	Ella spills a bit on the table.
Ayla giver hende noget køkkenrulle, og så kan hun selv tørre op.	Ayla gives her some kitchen paper, and then she can wipe it up herself.
- Ikke? - Ja.	- Right? - Yes.
Efter maden er Ella træt. I vuggestuen sov hun en middagslur.	After the meal, Ella is tired. In the nursery, she took a nap.
Men i børnehaven er der et stillerum og madrasser, de yngste kan ligge på.	But in the kindergarten, there is a quiet room and mattresses for the youngest to lie on.
Men Ella kan ikke falde i søvn. Det hele er så nyt -	But Ella can't fall asleep. Everything is so new -
- så hun vender og drejer sig og savner sin mor og far.	- so she tosses and turns and misses her mom and dad.
Ella bruger ikke sut mere. Kun når hun er rigtig ked af det.	Ella doesn't use a pacifier anymore. Only when she is really sad.
Ligesom nu, faktisk.	Like now, actually.
Men her er ikke nogen sut. Og ikke nogen mor.	But here there is no pacifier. And no mom.
- Hun sover ikke? - Nej, fordi det hele er meget nyt.	- She is not sleeping? - No, because everything is very new.
Det er lidt svært at falde i søvn, når man er et helt nyt sted.	It is a bit difficult to fall asleep when you are in a completely new place.
Hvad kan hun gøre for at falde i søvn?	What can she do to fall asleep?
- Hvad kunne der ske? - Hun kunne låne min puttebamse.	- What could happen? - She could borrow my cuddle bear.
Det var virkelig sødt, Orm.	That was really sweet, Worm.
- Må hun godt låne din puttebamse? - Ja.	- Can she borrow your cuddle bear? - Yes.
Det er så fint, når man kan låne andre noget. Det var sødt af dig.	It is so nice when you can lend something to others. That was sweet of you.
Var det ikke sødt af Orm? Lad os gå videre med historien.	Wasn't that sweet of Worm? Let's continue with the story.
Efter luren er børnene ude på legepladsen. Ella gynger.	After the nap, the children are out on the playground. Ella swings.
Og endelig kommer mor! Ella løber hen til hende.	And finally, mom comes! Ella runs to her.
"Hej, lille skat," siger mor. "Har du haft det godt?"	"Hi, little darling," says mom. "Have you had a good time?"
Ella er alt for træt til at svare.	Ella is too tired to answer.
Hun gaber hele vejen hjem.	She yawns all the way home.
Og til sidst falder hun i søvn bag på cyklen.	And finally, she falls asleep on the back of the bike.
Mor eller far afleverer Ella i børnehaven hver dag.	Mom or dad drops Ella off at kindergarten every day.
De bliver sammen med hende et stykke tid. Så går de på arbejde.	They stay with her for a while. Then they go to work.
Det er Ella lidt ked af, selv om hun ved, at de kommer tilbage.	Ella is a bit sad about it, even though she knows they will come back.
Børnene er ude på legepladsen. En dreng kommer løbende i fuld fart.	The children are out on the playground. A boy comes running at full speed.
Og han vælter Ella.	And he knocks Ella over.
Uh!	Oh!
Kom her. Skal jeg lige holde dig lidt?	Come here. Shall I hold you for a bit?
- Ja, det hjælper. - Gør det? Godt.	- Yes, that helps. - Does it? Good.
Nå, men den her dreng kommer og vælter Ella.	Well, this boy comes and knocks Ella over.
De voksne ser det ikke. Her er ikke spor rart, synes Ella.	The adults don't see it. It is not nice here, Ella thinks.
Hun går ned i det bagerste hjørne og kravler ind under nogle buske.	She goes down to the back corner and crawls under some bushes.
Det er ligesom at være i en grøn hule.	It is like being in a green cave.
Her er der ingen, der vælter hende.	Here no one knocks her over.
Puh.	Phew.
- Det var rart, ikke? - Ja.	- That was nice, right? - Yes.
Ella sidder i sin hule. Her er fred og ro.	Ella sits in her cave. Here there is peace and quiet.
Lidt efter kommer en pige og kigger ind til Ella.	A little later, a girl comes and looks in at Ella.
"Hvad laver du?" spørger pigen.	"What are you doing?" asks the girl.
"Jeg leger, at jeg bor her," siger Ella.	"I am playing that I live here," says Ella.
"Må jeg være med?" spørger pigen. Det må hun da gerne.	"Can I join?" asks the girl. She is welcome to.
Så sidder de og hygger sig i Ellas hule.	Then they sit and enjoy themselves in Ella's cave.
Pigen hedder Katrine, og de leger sammen hele dagen.	The girl is called Katrine, and they play together all day.
De sidder i sandkassen. Ella får lidt sand i øjnene -	They sit in the sandbox. Ella gets some sand in her eyes -
- men hun gnider det bare væk.	- but she just rubs it away.
Det er så sjovt at lege med Katrine, at hun helt glemmer at græde.	It is so fun to play with Katrine that she completely forgets to cry.
Det virker, som om Ella har fået en ny ven.	It seems like Ella has made a new friend.
Har du også en god ven, Orm?	Do you also have a good friend, Worm?
- Ja, han hedder Børste. - Hedder han Børste?	- Yes, his name is Børste. - Is his name Børste?
- Kan du lege med ham hele dagen? - Ja.	- Can you play with him all day? - Yes.
Det lyder virkelig godt. Så prøver vi at gå videre.	That sounds really good. Then let's try to continue.
Det regner, og børnene er inde hele dagen. De keder sig lidt.	It is raining, and the children are inside all day. They are a bit bored.
"Du kan ikke fange mig!" råber Katrine, og Ella løber efter hende.	"You can't catch me!" shouts Katrine, and Ella runs after her.
"Ikke løbe herinde!" siger Liselotte, men det er for sent.	"Don't run in here!" says Liselotte, but it is too late.
Ella falder og slår sit knæ. Det gør ondt, og det bløder lidt.	Ella falls and hits her knee. It hurts, and it bleeds a bit.
"Jeg vil ha' min mor!" hulker hun.	"I want my mom!" she sobs.
"Sikke noget," siger Liselotte. "Det må vi gøre noget ved."	"What a thing," says Liselotte. "We must do something about it."
Så vasker hun Ellas knæ og sætter et fint plaster på.	Then she washes Ella's knee and puts a nice bandage on it.
"Nu går det bedre, ikke?" siger Liselotte og giver Ella et kram.	"Now it is better, right?" says Liselotte and gives Ella a hug.
I dag skal børnene på tur. Helt over til parken.	Today the children are going on a trip. All the way to the park.
I vuggestuen sad Ella i en klapvogn -	In the nursery, Ella sat in a stroller -
- men i børnehaven skal hun gå selv hele vejen.	- but in the kindergarten, she has to walk all the way herself.
"Jeg kan ikke gå længere," piber Ella.	"I can't walk anymore," whimpers Ella.
"Det kan du godt," siger Liselotte. "Tag mig i hånden."	"Yes, you can," says Liselotte. "Take my hand."
Endelig når børnene over i parken.	Finally, the children reach the park.
Der er en sø med ænder, som de skal fodre.	There is a pond with ducks that they have to feed.
De store børn kan kaste deres brød rigtig langt ud i vandet.	The big children can throw their bread really far into the water.
Og ænderne plasker rundt efter det.	And the ducks splash around after it.
Ellas brød lander bare i græsset. Lige foran hende.	Ella's bread just lands in the grass. Right in front of her.
Men så kommer en lillebitte and og snupper det.	But then a tiny duck comes and snatches it.
"Den er til dig, lille and!" råber Ella.	"That is for you, little duck!" shouts Ella.
Ella og Katrine løber på løbehjul.	Ella and Katrine run on scooters.
Og lige pludselig skal Ella tisse rigtig, rigtig meget.	And suddenly, Ella really, really needs to pee.
Hun vil ind på toilettet, men døren er svær at få op.	She wants to go to the toilet, but the door is hard to open.
Døren er alt for tung.	The door is way too heavy.
Åh nej.	Oh no.
Så kommer Ayla og ser, at Ella græder.	Then Ayla comes and sees that Ella is crying.
"Hvad er der dog i vejen?" siger hun til Ella.	"What is wrong?" she says to Ella.
"Jeg har ... Jeg har tisset i bukserne," hvisker Ella.	"I have ... I have peed my pants," whispers Ella.
"Det skal du ikke være ked af," siger Ayla.	"You shouldn't be sad about that," says Ayla.
"Vi finder da bare et par tørre bukser til dig."	"We will just find a pair of dry pants for you."
Godt, jeg har Ayla, tænker Ella.	Good, I have Ayla, thinks Ella.
- Tænker du ikke også det? - Jo.	- Don't you think so too? - Yes.
- Hun er god, hende Ayla. - Ja.	- She is good, that Ayla. - Yes.
I dag er det legetøjsdag.	Today is toy day.
Så må børnene tage deres yndlingslegetøj med i børnehaven.	Then the children can bring their favorite toys to kindergarten.
Ella tager Bamse med.	Ella brings Bamse.
Han kender jo ikke børnehaven, så Ella viser ham det hele -	He doesn't know the kindergarten, so Ella shows him everything -
- og fortæller, hvordan man gør, når man går i børnehave.	- and tells him how it is when you go to kindergarten.
Ella og Katrine leger med Bamse og Katrines dukke.	Ella and Katrine play with Bamse and Katrine's doll.
De laver mad til dem og lægger dem i seng.	They make food for them and put them to bed.
Lige pludselig kommer far for at hente Ella.	Suddenly, dad comes to pick up Ella.
"Hej, skattepigen," siger han. "Nu skal du hjem."	"Hi, little darling," he says. "Now you are going home."
"Nej, ikke nu, far," siger Ella. "Vi leger lige så godt."	"No, not now, dad," says Ella. "We are playing so well."
"Nå da da," ler far. "Det er måske ikke så tosset at gå i børnehave."	"Well, well," laughs dad. "Maybe going to kindergarten is not so bad."
Ella nikker bare. Hun kan faktisk rigtig godt lide sin børnehave.	Ella just nods. She actually really likes her kindergarten.
Det var godt, at Ella blev glad for sin børnehave, hva'?	It was good that Ella became happy with her kindergarten, right?
Hvad laver du, Orm?	What are you doing, Worm?
Jeg sender luftkys. Masser af gode luftkys.	I am blowing kisses. Lots of good kisses.
Det er nogle af de bedste luftkys, jeg har fået.	Those are some of the best kisses I have received.
Men måske du kan hjælpe mig med at sige: "Vi ses."	But maybe you can help me say: "See you."
Ja, det kan jeg.	Yes, I can.
Tittebøh, tittebut, så er den historie slut.	Peekaboo, peekaboo, and now the story is over.
Det er nemlig, lige hvad den er. Det var hyggeligt, du så med.	That's exactly what it is. It was cozy having you watch.
En masse luftkys, og hav det rigtig godt. Hej, hej.	Lots of kisses, and have a great day. Bye, bye.
Det er flot vinket. Vink igen.	That's a great wave. Wave again.
Hvordan tror du, Ella har det med børnehaven nu?	How do you think Ella feels about kindergarten now?
Hvad ville du tage med til legetøjsdag?	What would you bring to toy day?
