I went to an Easter party.
My friend made Easter baskets.
She put 14 mini Easter eggs into each basket.
Someone bought their 3 year old. He was support to take a nap but he
didn't. He went around and took one egg from each basket, then went
around again and took another and then do you know what he took one
more from each basket.
How many did he take from each basket? 3
How many eggs are left?
