Using a GERUND as the subject of a sentence

4 Be sure that the verb matches the subject:

Wrong: Taking my kids to the park didn't have time to stop for ice cream.
Right: Taking my kids to the park was a wonderful experience.

The first example is wrong because the subject should be a PERSON, not an ACTIVITY:

Right: When I took my kids to the park, I didn't have time to stop for ice cream.
