At the Question and Answer station, Liza Zakharova was more active than others. Of course, Liza Zakharova knows the most fairy tales, because she is older than the other children, she is 4 years old. A little younger - Arseny Lebedev, he is a year younger. But the smallest, two-year-old Lenochka Tikhomirova, spoke the least, but sometimes nodded her head as a sign of agreement.
