The child sees a number of things which fascinate him on his way to the fair. He first saw toys at a shop. Then he saw a flowering mustard field. In the fields, the child also saw dragonflies and butterflies fluttering their wings. While walking along the footpath he was amazed by the insects and worms. When he entered the grove he saw doves which were cooing. As he neared the village with his parents, he saw huge crowds of people going to the fair. The child also came across a sweetmeat seller selling sweets like burfi and gulab jamun; a little further he came across a flower seller who was selling a garland of gulmohar flowers. Walking ahead, he saw a man selling rainbow colour balloons. He also saw a snake charmer who stood playing a flute to a snake. Finally, before losing track of his parents he saw a roundabout swing.
The child is fascinated by all the things he sees on his way and keeps lagging behind his parents. At times, he stops to wonder at the toys and begs for them. At other times he stops to admire the beauty of the nature – collecting flowers and trying to catch butterflies.
