Kittens love to play all day long. Playing is not just fun for young cats.
Playing helps a kitten learn how to move. A small kitten sees its own tail move.
The tail wiggles and moves around. The kitten thinks its tail is a fast toy.
It starts to chase its tail in a circle. Spinning in circles helps the kitten balance.
It learns how to pounce and turn. Sometimes a person makes a paper crown for a kitten.
The crown might be big and funny. It can slide over the kitten's fluffy ears.
The paper makes a crinkle sound when the cat turns. The kitten looks cute in its paper crown.
It tries to catch its tail while wearing the crown. The crown might slip down over its eyes.
Chasing its tail helps the kitten grow strong. Its legs get stronger each day.
Playing with paper toys is good practice for a little cat.
