This is a sentence of the lesson «Responsibility, independence and curiosity» of the everyday course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (babies, parent), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
