When Mama goes to work,

She wears her working clothes.

She combs her hair,

She packs a lunch,

She takes her special bag.

When Mama goes to work,

I wear my playing clothes.

I comb my hair,

I pack a lunch,

I take my special bag.

When Mama Goes to Work follows several children and their working mothers as they move through their day. From morning to night, through the daily activities of work and play, children and parents keep each other in their thoughts even when they are apart.
