But then the bear saw the family's house in the distance and he knew it was time for him to go. + +"Goodbye," the little girl said.

Tom felt sad, but he understood the message and he thanked Tim for teaching him the lesson. + +From then on, Tom didn't take things that didn't belong to him, even if he was very hungry.

It flew over the fence and into the next garden. Sara was sad. She wanted to see the butterfly again. She looked at the fence. It was not very high. She thought she could climb over it and find the butterfly. She put her toys on the ground and grabbed the fence. + +"Be careful, Sara. That is not your garden. That is Mr. Jones' garden. He does not like children," said a voice. + +Sara turned around and saw her big brother, Tom. He was six years old and knew everything. He was holding a book and a pencil. + +"What are you doing, Tom?" she asked. + +"I am doing my homework. I have to write a story. But I don't know what to write.

Go away," he said. + +Sara felt ashamed. She did not like it when Tom was mean to her. She wanted to help him. She wanted to be big like him. She let go of the fence and picked up her toys. She walked back to her side of the garden. She did not want to play anymore. She sat on the grass and hugged her teddy bear. + +"Are you okay, Sara?" asked her teddy bear. + +"No, I am not. Tom said I am too little. I can't catch the butterfly. I can't help him write a story. I can't do anything," she said. + +"That is not true, Sara. You can do many things. You can play with me and your other toys. You can sing and dance and draw. You can be kind and brave and happy. You are a wonderful girl," said her teddy bear. + +"Really?" she asked. + +"Really. And you know what? You can also encourage Tom. Maybe he is feeling sad and frustrated. Maybe he needs a friend. Maybe he needs a hug. Maybe he needs a butterfly," said her teddy bear. + +Sara smiled. She liked her teddy bear. He was always nice to her. He always encouraged her. She decided to listen to him. She got up and walked to Tom. She gave him a hug and a kiss. + +"Tom, I love you. You are a smart boy. You can write a great story. I am sorry I bothered you. Do you want to see the butterfly? It is very pretty. Maybe it can help you with your story," she said. + +Tom looked at her. He was surprised. He did not expect Sara to be so sweet. He felt a little ashamed. He had been rude to her. He hugged her back and smiled. + +"Thank you, Sara. You are a lovely sister. You can help me with my story. I love you too. Yes, I want to see the butterfly. Maybe it can inspire me. Let's go together," he said. + +They took their toys and climbed over the fence. They found the butterfly on a rose. They watched it with wonder. They made up a story about it. They had fun. They were happy. They encouraged each other. +Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a cake for mom. Lily was bossy. She told Tom what to do. + +"Tom, get the eggs. Tom, get the flour. Tom, get the milk." Lily said. + +Tom did what Lily said. He got the eggs, the flour and the milk. He put them on the table. Lily had a plan. She wanted to mix everything in a big bowl. + +"Tom, get the bowl. Tom, get the spoon. Tom, get the knife." Lily said. + +Tom got the bowl, the spoon and the knife. He put them on the table. Lily took the knife. She wanted to crack the eggs. + +"Tom, watch me. I will crack the eggs with the knife." Lily said. + +Tom watched Lily. He was scared. He knew the knife was sharp. He knew the knife could hurt Lily. + +"Lily, no! The knife is sharp. The knife can hurt you. Put the knife down." Tom said. + +Lily did not listen to Tom. She was bossy. She wanted to crack the eggs with the knife. She hit the egg with the knife. The egg broke. The egg made a mess. The egg went on the table, on the floor, on Lily's dress. + +Lily was sad. She dropped the knife. She cried. Tom was sad too. He hugged Lily. He said sorry. + +"Lily, I'm sorry. I just wanted to help you. I just wanted to be safe. The knife is not for cracking eggs. The knife is for cutting bread." Tom said. + +Lily stopped crying. She hugged Tom back. She said sorry too. + +"Tom, I'm sorry. I was bossy. I did not listen to you. You were right. The knife is not for cracking eggs. The knife is for cutting bread. Can we still make a cake for mom?" Lily said. + +Tom smiled. He nodded. He said yes. + +"Yes, we can still make a cake for mom. But we need a new plan. And we need to clean up the mess. And we need to ask dad for help. He knows how to use the knife." Tom said. + +Lily smiled too. She nodded. She said yes. + +"Yes, we need a new plan. And we need to clean up the mess. And we need to ask dad for help. He knows how to use the knife. And he knows how to make a cake for mom."

She said thank you. + +"Thank you, Lily and Tom. You made a cake for me. You are so sweet. You are so smart. You are so brave. You are my best helpers." Mom said. + +Lily and Tom were happy. They hugged mom back. They said you're welcome. + +"You're welcome, mom. We love you. We wanted to make you happy. We wanted to make a cake for you. We had a plan. But we made a mess. But we fixed it. But we needed help. But we did it." Lily and Tom said. + +Mom kissed Lily and Tom. She said she loved them too. She said they were the best. She said they could eat the cake. Lily and Tom were happy. They ate the cake. They liked the cake. They liked their plan. They liked their mom. They liked each other. The end. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. Sometimes they share, and sometimes they fight. + +One day, Sara finds a cord in a drawer. She thinks it is fun to swing it around and make noises. She sees Ben playing with his car on the floor. She runs to him and teases him with the cord. She swings it over his head and says, "I have a cord and you don't!" + +Ben does not like it. He feels angry and sad. He wants to play with his car in peace. He tries to grab the cord from Sara, but she is too fast. She laughs and runs away. She thinks it is a game. + +But then, something bad happens. Sara trips over a rug and falls down. The cord gets tangled around her leg and hurts her. She cries and drops the cord. Ben hears her and runs to her. He sees the cord and picks it up. He thinks of teasing her back, but he does not. He feels sorry for her. He knows it is not nice to tease. + +He helps her up and hugs her. He says, "I'm sorry you got hurt. Do you want to play with the cord with me?" Sara nods and smiles. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. You are lucky to have a car. Can I play with it too?" Ben nods and smiles. He says, "Yes, you can. You are a good sister. We are lucky to have each other." They hug again and play with the cord and the car. They share and have fun. They are happy. +Timmy loved blueberries. He liked to eat them with his breakfast, or as a snack, or in a pie. He wanted to pick some blueberries from the bushes in his backyard, but his mom said no. She said the blueberries were not ripe yet, and he had to wait. + +One day, Timmy saw a big, juicy blueberry on a branch. He thought his mom was not looking, so he reached for it. But the branch was too high, and he could not grab it. He tried to jump, but he still could not reach it. He looked around and saw a stick. He had an idea. He picked up the stick and tried to poke the blueberry with it. + +But the stick was too short, and he could not poke the stick. He saw a bigger stick. He dropped the small stick and picked up the big stick. He tried to poke the blueberry with the big stick. But the big stick was too heavy, and he could not lift it. He saw a ladder. He had another idea. He dragged the ladder to the bush and climbed on it. He reached for the blueberry with his hand. + +But the ladder was too shaky, and he could not balance on it. He felt the ladder move and wobble. He was scared. He tried to hold on to the branch, but he could not grip it. He heard a loud snap. The branch broke, and the blueberry fell. Timmy fell too. He landed on the ground with a thud. He cried out in pain. + +He heard his mom run to him. She saw him lying on the ground, with the ladder, the stick, and the blueberry next to him. She was angry and worried. She picked him up and hugged him. She checked him for injuries. She said, "Timmy, what have you done? You could have hurt yourself badly. Why did you not listen to me? I told you to wait for the blueberries to be ripe. They are not good for you when they are green. They are sour and hard. You have to be patient and respectful. You have to follow the rules. Do you understand?" + +Timmy nodded. He was sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted a blueberry. I did not mean to be bad. I did not know the ladder would shake. I did not know the branch would break. I did not know the blueberry would fall. I did not know it would hurt." + +His mom kissed him. She said, "I know, Timmy. I know you love blueberries. But you have to be careful and smart. You have to wait for the right time. You have to ask for help when you need it. You have to learn from your mistakes. Do you understand?" + +Timmy nodded again. He said, "I understand, mom. I will be careful and smart. I will wait for the right time. I will ask for help when I need it. I will learn from my mistakes. Can I have a hug?" + +His mom hugged him. She said, "Of course, Timmy. I love you. You are my sweet boy. Now, let's go inside and have some ice cream. Maybe next week, we can pick some ripe blueberries together. How does that sound?" + +Timmy smiled. He said, "That sounds good, mom. I love you too. You are my best mom. Can I have some blueberry ice cream?" + +His mom laughed. She said, "Sure, Timmy. Why not? But only if you promise to never climb on a shaky ladder again." + +Timmy promised. He said, "I promise, mom. No more shaky ladders. Only blueberry ice cream." + +They went inside and had some blueberry ice cream. Timmy learned his lesson. He never climbed on a shaky ladder again. He waited for the blueberries to be ripe. He picked them with his mom. He enjoyed them with his breakfast, or as a snack, or in a pie. He was happy. He was a good boy. +Sam was a troubled boy.

He wanted to eat it. + +"Sam, what are you doing?" his sister asked. She saw him holding the pill. + +"Go away, this is mine!" Sam said. He tried to hide the pill. + +"No, Sam, that is not a candy. That is a pill. It is for mom. She needs it when she is sick. You cannot eat it. It will make you sick too." his sister said. She tried to take the pill from him. + +Sam did not listen. He ran away from his sister. He went to his room. He locked the door. He put the pill in his mouth. He bit it. It was bitter. He did not like it. He spit it out. He felt sick. He started to cry. + +His sister heard him cry. She knocked on the door. "Sam, are you okay? Open the door, please. I want to help you." she said. + +Sam was scared. He realized he made a mistake. He wanted his sister. He opened the door. He hugged his sister. He said he was sorry. + +His sister hugged him back. She said it was okay. She said she loved him. She said they should tell mom. She said mom would help him. She said they should part the pill and throw it away. She said they should never take pills that are not for them.

"Let's play with it!" + +They swam towards the laser, but it was too fast. It moved away from them every time they got close. They tried to catch it, but they could not. + +"This is hard!" Mia said. "Why is it running away?" + +"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe it is scared of us." + +They kept swimming after the laser, but they got tired and frustrated. They wanted to touch the laser, but they could not. + +"Stop, laser, stop!" Ben shouted. "We just want to play with you!" + +But the laser did not stop. It kept moving around the pool. + +Ben and Mia felt sad and angry. They did not like the laser anymore. They wanted to play with something else. + +"Let's go, Mia," Ben said. "This laser is not fun. It is mean." + +They swam away from the laser and found their old toys. They played with their balls and ducks and boats. They had fun again. + +They did not look at the laser anymore. They did not care about it. + +The laser was lonely. It wanted to play with Ben and Mia, but it did not know how. It did not know how to stop or talk or be nice. It only knew how to make a bright red light that moved around. + +The laser wished it had friends. It wished it could swim with Ben and Mia. But it could not. +Ben and Lily wanted to go to the park. They liked to play on the swings and slide. But they did not know the way. They saw a map on the wall of their house. The map showed the streets and the park. Ben said, "Let's take the map and find the park." + +Lily said, "OK, but we have to be back soon. Mom and Dad will be angry if we are late." They took the map and left the house. They walked and walked. They looked at the map. But the map was old and wrong. The streets had changed. The park was not where the map said. + +They got lost. They did not see any people or cars. They only saw long and dark buildings. They were scared. They wanted to go back home. But they did not know how. They started to cry. They regretted taking the map and leaving the house. + +They heard a loud noise. It was a big dog. The dog was angry and hungry. It saw Ben and Lily. It ran towards them. It barked and growled.

They wished they had stayed at home. But it was too late. The dog did not let them go. The dog ate them. The end. +Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play in the forest. They had a big pine tree that was their favorite. They would climb on its branches, make a fort with its cones, and pretend it was a castle or a spaceship. + +One day, they saw a squirrel on the pine tree. It was brown and fluffy, and it had a long tail. It was nibbling on a cone and making funny noises. + +"Hello, squirrel!" Lila said. "Can we play with you?" + +The squirrel looked at them and twitched its nose. It did not want to share its cone. It ran up the tree and hid behind some needles. + +"Come on, squirrel!" Ben said. "Don't be shy! We are nice!" + +The squirrel peeked out and chattered. It still did not want to play. It threw a cone at Ben and hit him on the head. + +"Ow!" Ben said. "That was not nice, squirrel! That hurt!" + +Lila and Ben were angry. They wanted to catch the squirrel and teach it a lesson. They climbed up the tree and chased the squirrel. The squirrel was fast and clever.

They wanted to catch the squirrel. + +"Please, mom, can we stay a little longer?" Lila asked. + +"No, sweeties, it's getting dark and cold. You need to come home and have dinner and a bath. Maybe you can play with the squirrel another day." Mom said. + +Lila and Ben sighed. They knew mom was right. They climbed down the tree and said goodbye to the squirrel. + +"Bye, squirrel!" Lila said. "Maybe you can be nicer next time!" + +"Bye, squirrel!" Ben said. "Maybe you can share your cone next time!" + +The squirrel watched them go and smiled. It was glad they were gone.

"But I like our birds better. They can sing and fly fast." + +The peacock heard them and felt envious. It wanted to show off its tail more. It said, "You are silly children. You don't know anything about beauty. My tail is the most wonderful thing in the world. You should be happy to see it." + +Anna and Ben did not like the peacock's words. They thought it was rude and proud. They said, "No, thank you. We don't need your tail. We have our own things to enjoy. We recommend you to be nice and friendly, not mean and boastful." + +The peacock was angry and ashamed. It closed its tail and flew away. Anna and Ben smiled and hugged each other.

He seemed nice. + +"Okay, you can look, but only for a little bit," Lily said. + +"Thank you, thank you, thank you," the boy said. He sat next to Lily and looked at her journal. He pointed at her pictures and asked her questions. He said he liked her writing and her colors. + +Lily felt happy. She liked to talk about her journal. She liked to make a new friend. She decided to share her crayons with the boy and let him draw in her journal too. They had fun together. They wrote and drew and laughed. + +Lily learned that sharing can be good. She learned that her journal can be more bright when she lets others see it. She learned that please is a nice word to use. She was glad she met the boy at the park. +Sam and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They run and jump and laugh. They have fun. + +One day, they see a big pile of leaves. They want to play in the leaves. They run to the pile and jump in. The leaves are soft and crunchy. They make a lot of noise. + +But some of the leaves are dirty. They have dust and bugs and dirt. The dust and dirt go in Sam and Ben's mouths and noses. They cough and sneeze. They do not feel good. + +Sam and Ben have dirty lungs. They need to clean their lungs. They go to the water fountain and drink some water. They spit out the dirt and dust. They breathe in and out. They feel better. + +Sam and Ben learn a lesson. They do not play in dirty leaves anymore. They play in clean grass and sand. They include their lungs in their fun. They are happy and healthy. +Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with toys. They have a big box of blocks. They can make many things with blocks. + +One day, Sam and Ben want to make a ship with blocks. They work hard and put many blocks together. They make a big ship with a mast and a sail. They are happy and proud. + +But then, Tom comes. Tom is their cousin. He is grumpy. He does not like to share. He sees the ship and wants it. He says, "This is my ship. Give it to me." + +Sam and Ben say, "No, this is our ship. We made it. Go away." + +Tom gets angry. He pushes Sam and Ben. He tries to take the ship. Sam and Ben push him back. They try to keep the ship. They start to fight. + +Mom hears the noise. She comes and sees the fight. She is not happy. She says, "Stop fighting. This is not nice. You have to share. You can all play with the ship." + +Sam and Ben do not want to share. They say, "But we made it. He did not help. He is grumpy." + +Mom says, "I know, but he is your cousin. He is here to visit. You have to be kind. You can take turns. You can play together. You can make more things with blocks." + +Sam and Ben think. They do not like to fight. They want to have fun. They say, "OK, we will share. We will take turns. We will play together." + +Tom says, "Thank you. I am sorry. I was grumpy. I want to play with you." + +Mom smiles. She says, "That's good. I am proud of you. You are good brothers and cousins. You can complete your ship and make more things with blocks." + +Sam, Ben, and Tom hug Mom. They say, "We love you, Mom." + +They go back to the box of blocks. They complete their ship and make more things with blocks. They have fun. They are happy. +Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a cell on the floor. It is shiny and has buttons. + +"Look, a cell!" Tom says. "Can we play with it?" + +"I don't know," Jen says. "Maybe it is someone's cell. They might need it." + +"Who cares?" Tom says. "It is fun. Watch this." He presses a button and the cell makes a noise. + +"Wow!" Jen says. "That is cool. Let me try." She takes the cell from Tom and presses another button. The cell makes a different noise. + +They take turns pressing buttons and making noises. They laugh and have fun. They do not see the man who is looking for his cell. He is angry and worried. He needs his cell to call his wife. She is sick and in the hospital. + +The man sees Tom and Jen playing with his cell. He runs to them and shouts. + +"Hey, you kids! Give me back my cell! That is mine!" + +Tom and Jen are scared. They drop the cell and run away. The cell falls on the hard floor and breaks. It is empty and silent. + +The man picks up his cell and sees that it is broken. He is sad and mad. He cannot call his wife. He does not know if she is okay. He cries and says. + +"Why did you do this? Why did you break my cell? You are bad kids!" +Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. But they also liked to fight over their toys. They would pull and push and shout and cry when they wanted the same toy. + +One day, their mom had a meeting with some people at home. She told Sara and Tom to be quiet and nice while she was talking. She gave them a big box of new toys to share. She said they were fragile and they had to be careful. + +Sara and Tom opened the box and saw many beautiful toys. They saw dolls and cars and blocks and books. They wanted to play with all of them. But they did not want to share. They started to fight again. They grabbed and threw and kicked and bit when they wanted the same toy. + +But the toys were fragile. They broke and tore and cracked and ripped when they fought. The dolls lost their hair and eyes. The cars lost their wheels and doors. The blocks lost their shapes and colors. The books lost their pages and covers. + +Sara and Tom stopped fighting when they saw what they had done. They looked at the broken toys and felt sad and sorry. They wished they had been quiet and nice. They wished they had shared and cared. + +Their mom came back from the meeting and saw the mess. She was angry and disappointed. She said they had been naughty and selfish. She said they had wasted and ruined the toys. She said they had to learn to get along and respect. + +Sara and Tom said they were sorry and hugged their mom. They said they had learned their lesson. They said they would not fight anymore. They said they would share and be kind. + +Their mom smiled and forgave them. She said they were still her sweet and lovely twins. She said they could still play with the toys that were not broken. She said they could also make new toys from the broken ones. She said they could use their imagination and creativity. + +Sara and Tom thanked their mom and hugged her again. They went to play with the toys that were not broken. They also made new toys from the broken ones. They made a doll with a car wheel for a hat. They made a car with a block for a body. They made a block with a book page for a face. They made a book with a doll eye for a picture. + +They had fun and laughed and smiled. They did not fight anymore. They shared and were kind. They learned that fighting is bad and sharing is good. They learned that fragile things can break and hurt. They learned that new things can come from old things. They learned that playing is better than fighting. +Anna and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Anna has a big ball that can roll. Ben has a small car that has four circles for wheels. They like to make the ball and the car roll on the floor and see who can go faster. + +"Look, Anna, my car can roll very fast!" Ben says, as he pushes his car with his hand. + +"But my ball can roll faster, Ben!" Anna says, as she kicks her ball with her foot. + +They both watch their toys roll across the room. The ball and the car are going to hit each other. + +"Oh no, Anna, move your ball!" Ben says. + +"I can't, Ben, it's too late!" Anna says. + +The ball and the car crash into each other. The ball bounces away, but the car breaks. One of the circles falls off and rolls under the sofa. + +"Anna, you broke my car!" Ben says, as he picks up his car and sees the missing circle. + +"I'm sorry, Ben, I didn't mean to!" Anna says, as she runs to the sofa and tries to find the circle. + +They both look under the sofa, but they can't see the circle. It is too dark and too far. + +"Where is my circle, Anna?" Ben says, as he starts to cry. + +"I don't know, Ben, maybe it's gone!" Anna says, as she starts to cry too. + +They both sit on the floor and hug each other. They are sad and sorry. + +"Anna, Ben, what's wrong?" Mom says, as she comes into the living room and sees them crying. + +"Mom, we were playing with our toys, and Anna's ball broke my car, and my circle is gone!" Ben says, as he shows Mom his car. + +"Mom, we can't find Ben's circle, and he's very sad, and I'm very sad too!" Anna says, as she wipes her tears. + +Mom hugs them both and says, "Don't worry, Anna and Ben, I'm sure we can fix your car and find your circle. You are both very honest and brave to tell me what happened. I'm proud of you." + +Mom takes them to the kitchen and gives them some cookies and milk. She says, "Let's eat some cookies and drink some milk, and then we'll look for your circle together. Maybe it's hiding somewhere. And then we'll glue your car back together. It will be as good as new." + +Anna and Ben smile and say, "Thank you, Mom, you are the best!" + +They eat their cookies and drink their milk, and then they go back to the living room with Mom. They look under the sofa, behind the curtains, and in the toy box. They finally find the circle under the rug. They are very happy. + +"Look, Mom, we found the circle!" Anna says, as she holds the circle in her hand. + +"Good job, Anna and Ben, you are very smart!" Mom says, as she takes the circle and the car and glues them together. + +She gives the car back to Ben and says, "Here you go, Ben, your car is fixed. Be careful with it, okay?" + +"Okay, Mom, thank you, I love you!" Ben says, as he hugs Mom and kisses her cheek. + +He gives the car to Anna and says, "Here, Anna, you can play with my car. I'm sorry I was mad at you. You are my best friend." + +"Thank you, Ben, I love you too!" Anna says, as she hugs Ben and kisses his cheek. + +She gives the ball to Ben and says, "Here, Ben, you can play with my ball. I'm sorry I broke your car. You are my best friend too." + +They both smile and say, "Let's play together!" + +They take their toys and roll them on the floor. They laugh and have fun. Mom watches them and smiles. She is happy. +Lila and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big picture of a leopard on a sign. The leopard had yellow fur with black spots and sharp teeth. + +"Mom, what is that?" Lila asked, pointing at the picture. + +"That is a leopard, Lila. It is a kind of animal that lives in far away places. It is very fast and strong and can hunt other animals for food," mom explained. + +"Wow, it looks scary!" Ben said. "I don't want to meet a leopard." + +Mom smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ben. Leopards are very shy and usually stay away from people. They only attack when they are hungry or scared or need to protect their babies." + +Lila and Ben nodded and looked at the picture again. They saw a small bird sitting on the leopard's head. The bird was pecking at the leopard's ear and making a loud noise. + +"Mom, why is the bird doing that?" Lila asked. "Doesn't the leopard get angry?" + +Mom said, "That is a special kind of bird, Lila. It is called an oxpecker. It helps the leopard by eating the bugs and dirt that bother the leopard's skin. The leopard lets the bird do that because it is good for both of them. They are friends." + +"Friends?" Ben asked. "But the bird is so small and the leopard is so big. How can they be friends?" + +Mom said, "Being friends doesn't depend on how big or small you are, Ben. It depends on how you treat each other. The bird and the leopard help each other and respect each other. That is what friends do. You can be friends with anyone who is kind and caring, no matter how different they are from you." + +Lila and Ben thought about what mom said. They looked at each other and smiled. They hugged mom and said, "We are friends, too, mom. And we love you." + +Mom hugged them back and said, "I love you, too, my sweet children. And I'm proud of you for being good friends to each other and to others." +Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and find things. Sometimes they found worms, sometimes they found stones, sometimes they found nothing. + +One day, they found a pipe. It was long and shiny and had a hole at each end. They wondered what it was for. + +"Maybe it is a toy," Sara said. "We can blow air through it and make sounds." + +"Maybe it is a tool," Tom said. "We can use it to water the plants or make bubbles." + +They decided to try both ideas. They took turns blowing air through the pipe and making funny noises. They laughed and had fun. Then they filled a bucket with water and put one end of the pipe in it. They tried to squeeze the other end and make water come out. + +But nothing happened. The pipe was blocked. They squeezed harder and harder, but still nothing happened. They felt frustrated and confused. + +"What is wrong with this pipe?" Sara asked. "Why is it not useful?" + +Suddenly, they heard a loud hiss and a splash. Water burst out of the pipe and sprayed them all over. They gasped and shrieked. They were wet and cold and surprised. + +They looked at the pipe and saw something sticking out of it. It was a frog. The frog had been hiding in the pipe and blocking the water. When they squeezed the pipe, they pushed the frog out. The frog was not happy. It croaked and jumped away. + +Sara and Tom looked at each other. They were wet and cold and surprised. But they also smiled. They had found something new and unexpected. They had made a frog come out of a pipe. They had learned something useful. + +They laughed and hugged. They decided to keep the pipe as a souvenir. They wondered what else they could find in the garden. +Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to be a good cook like her mom. One day, her mom was making soup and asked Lily to help her. + +"Can you cut some celery for me, Lily?" her mom said. "It will make the soup tasty and healthy." + +Lily nodded and took a knife and a cutting board. She washed the celery and put it on the board. She tried to cut it, but it was hard. The knife was too big and heavy for her. She felt sad and frustrated. + +"Mom, I can't cut the celery," she said. "The knife is too big and heavy for me. I'm sorry, I'm not helpful." + +Her mom smiled and hugged her. "Don't be sorry, Lily. You are very helpful. You just need a smaller and lighter knife. Here, use this one. It's safer and easier for you. And I'll show you how to cut the celery." + +Her mom took the smaller knife and the celery and showed Lily how to cut it into small pieces. She let Lily hold the knife with her and guide her hand. Lily felt happy and proud. She cut the celery with her mom and put it in a bowl. + +"Good job, Lily!" her mom said. "You cut the celery very well. Thank you for helping me. Now we can add it to the soup and enjoy it together." + +Lily smiled and hugged her mom. She liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to be a good cook like her mom. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red ball. They would kick it, throw it, and roll it on the grass. They were very organized and always put their toys away when they were done. + +One day, they wanted to play with their ball, but they could not find it. They looked in their room, in the garage, and in the backyard, but the ball was nowhere. They asked their mom, who was busy in the kitchen. + +"Mom, where is our ball?" they said. + +"Your ball? I don't know, sweeties. Maybe you left it somewhere," mom said. + +"But we always put our toys away, mom. We are very organized," Anna said. + +"Maybe someone took it, mom. Maybe a bad person or a big dog," Ben said. + +Mom frowned and thought for a moment. Then she smiled and said, "I have an idea. Why don't you look in the sky?" + +"In the sky?" the twins said. They were confused. How could their ball be in the sky? + +"Yes, in the sky. Come on, I'll show you," mom said. She took their hands and led them to the front yard. There, they saw a big surprise. Their ball was tied to a long string, and the string was tied to a big balloon. The balloon was floating in the air, and the ball was bouncing in the wind. + +"Wow!" the twins said. They were happy and amazed. They ran to the balloon and tried to pull it down. + +"Mom, how did our ball get in the sky?" they asked. + +"Well, I wanted to give you a special treat. I saw this balloon at the store, and I thought it would be fun to attach your ball to it. I wanted to surprise you, but I had to hide it until you came out. I hope you like it," mom said. + +"We love it, mom! Thank you, thank you!" the twins said. They hugged mom and kissed her cheek. They played with their ball and balloon for a long time. They did not mind that their ball was in the sky. They thought it was the best toy ever. + +Mom watched them and smiled. She was glad that she did not spoil their fun. She was proud of her organized and happy twins. +Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big hill near their house. They want to go up the hill. + +"Let's have a race!" Tim says. "Who can get to the top first?" + +"OK!" Mia says. "But we have to be creative. We can't just run. We have to use other things." + +They look around and find some things. Tim finds a stick and a rope. He ties the rope to the stick and makes a hook. He throws the hook to a tree and pulls himself up. Mia finds a big leaf and a stone. She puts the leaf on the stone and makes a slide. She slides down the hill and then runs up again. + +They both have fun and try different ways to go up the hill. Sometimes they fall and laugh. Sometimes they help each other. They are very creative. + +At last, they reach the top of the hill. They are both tired and happy. They look at the view and smile. + +"Who won?" Tim asks. + +"We both won!" Mia says. "We had a great time!" + +They hug and sit on the hill. They are friends. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big zip line. It is brown and long. It goes from one tree to another tree. + +"Can we try it?" Anna asks Ben. + +"I don't know. It looks scary," Ben says. + +"Come on, it will be fun. I will go first," Anna says. She puts on a helmet and a belt. She holds on to the zip line. She jumps and zips to the other tree. + +"Whee! That was so cool!" Anna shouts. + +Ben sees Anna smiling. He wants to try too. He puts on a helmet and a belt. He holds on to the zip line. He jumps and zips to the other tree. + +"Wow! That was awesome!" Ben shouts. + +Anna and Ben hug. They are happy. They zip back and forth on the zip line. They have a lot of fun. They are brave. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. They saw a big tent with a sign that said "shelter". They were curious and wanted to see what was inside. + +They walked to the tent and peeked through the flap. They saw some people sleeping on mats and some bags and clothes. They also saw a man sitting on a chair with a book. He looked angry and bored. + +"Hello," Lily said. "Can we come in?" + +The man raised his head and frowned. He did not like to be disturbed. He was rude and shouted at them. + +"Go away! This is not a place for kids! This is a shelter for people who have no home! You have a home, don't you? Then leave us alone!" + +Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They did not mean to bother the man. They just wanted to learn and be friendly. They ran away from the tent and back to the playground. + +They found their mom and dad and told them what happened. Their mom and dad hugged them and said they were sorry. They said the man was not nice and he should not have yelled at them. They said they were proud of them for being curious and kind. + +They also said that some people have a hard time and need help. They said that a shelter is a place where they can stay and be safe. They said that maybe someday they could do something to help them, like give them food or clothes or toys. + +Lily and Ben felt better. They understood that the man was not happy and he needed kindness. They decided to be kind to everyone they met, even if they were rude. They also decided to be thankful for their home and their family. They played some more and had fun. They were happy. +Tim and Amy were playing with blocks. They liked to make different shapes with the blocks. They made a circle, a square, a triangle and a star. + +"Look, I made a star!" Amy said. "It has five points. It is a rare shape." + +"I like your star, Amy. It is very pretty. Can I make one too?" Tim asked. + +"Sure, Tim. You can use these blocks. But be careful. Don't let the blocks fall down. We have to prevent that." Amy said. + +Tim and Amy tried to make another star. They put the blocks together. But the star was not stable. It wobbled and tilted. + +"Oh no, the star is falling!" Tim said. + +"Quick, catch it!" Amy said. + +They both reached for the star. But they were too late. The star fell down and broke into pieces. + +"Oops, we did not prevent it." Tim said. + +"It's okay, Tim. We can make another one. Or we can make a different shape. Maybe a heart or a diamond." Amy said. + +They smiled and hugged. They were not sad. They still had fun. They liked to play with blocks and make shapes. +Ben and Mia were having breakfast with Mom and Dad. They liked to eat toast with butter and jam. Mom gave them each a knife and a plate. + +"Be careful with the knife, Ben," Mom said. "Don't cut yourself." + +"I know, Mom," Ben said. He took some butter and spread it on his toast. He liked to make the butter smooth and even. + +Mia took some butter too, but she did not spread it. She made a big lump of butter on her toast. Then she took some jam and put it on top of the butter. She made a big mess on her plate. + +"Mia, what are you doing?" Dad asked. "That's too much butter and jam. You won't be able to eat it." + +"I like it this way, Dad," Mia said. She took a big bite of her toast. The butter and jam dripped from her mouth. She smiled and licked her lips. + +Ben looked at Mia and shook his head. He thought she was wild. He liked his toast neat and tidy. He took a sip of his milk and said, "Mia, you are silly. You should spread the butter, not pile it." + +Mia did not care. She liked her toast wild and sweet. She took another bite and said, "No, Ben, you are boring. You should pile the butter, not spread it." + +Mom and Dad laughed. They loved their children, even if they had different tastes. They gave them each a hug and a kiss and said, "You can eat your toast however you like, as long as you are happy and healthy." +Lily was a curious girl who liked to explore the garden. She saw many things that made her happy, like flowers, birds and butterflies. But she also saw something that made her angry: a mole. The mole dug holes in the grass and made it look messy. Lily hated the mole and wanted it to go away. + +One day, Lily decided to catch the mole and scare it. She took a bucket and a shovel and went to the garden. She looked for the mole's holes and tried to dig them up. She hoped to find the mole and put it in the bucket. But the mole was clever and fast. It moved from hole to hole and avoided Lily. Lily got tired and frustrated. She threw the shovel and shouted, "I hate you, mole! You are a bad animal!" + +The mole heard Lily's voice and felt sad. It did not mean to make Lily angry. It only wanted to find food and make a home. It did not know that Lily liked the grass and wanted it to be neat. The mole decided to talk to Lily and explain. It came out of a hole and said, "Hello, Lily. I am sorry I made you angry. I am a mole and I dig holes to live and eat. I do not hate you. Can we be friends?" + +Lily was surprised to hear the mole speak. She had never talked to an animal before. She felt curious and a little sorry. She said, "Hello, mole. I am sorry I shouted at you. I am Lily and I like the garden. I do not like holes because they make the grass look ugly. Can you dig somewhere else?" + +The mole nodded and said, "Yes, Lily. I can dig somewhere else. I do not want to make you unhappy. I like the garden too. It has many things to see and smell. Can you show me some of them?" + +Lily smiled and said, "Yes, mole. I can show you some of them. Come with me and I will show you the flowers, the birds and the butterflies. They are very pretty and nice. Maybe you will like them too." + +Lily and the mole became friends and explored the garden together. They learned from each other and had fun. They did not hate each other anymore. They were curious and happy. +Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big squash. It is green and yellow and round. + +"Look, Ben, a squash!" Lila says. "It is so big!" + +"Wow, Lila, it is big!" Ben says. "Can we pick it?" + +Lila nods. They pull the squash from the vine. It is heavy. They carry it to the porch. + +"Let's show Mom and Dad!" Lila says. "They will be happy!" + +They run to the house. They knock on the door. Mom and Dad open the door. They see the squash. + +"Hello, Lila and Ben!" Mom says. "What do you have there?" + +"A squash, Mom!" Lila says. "We found it in the garden!" + +"It is original, Dad!" Ben says. "It is green and yellow and round!" + +Mom and Dad smile. They are proud of Lila and Ben. + +"That is a wonderful squash, Lila and Ben!" Mom says. "You did a great job!" + +"Thank you, Mom!" Lila says. + +"Can we eat it, Dad?" Ben asks. + +"Of course, Ben!" Dad says. "We can make a yummy soup with it!" + +Lila and Ben are happy. They hug Mom and Dad. They love their squash. They love their garden. They love their family. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see a big pumpkin in the field. They want to touch it. + +"Look, a big pumpkin!" Tom says. + +"Can we touch it?" Sue asks. + +They run to the pumpkin. They do not see the farmer. The farmer is deaf. He cannot hear them. + +The farmer is angry. He sees Tom and Sue. They disturb his pumpkin. He shouts at them. He waves his stick. + +"Go away! Go away!" he says. + +Tom and Sue are scared. They run away from the pumpkin. They run away from the farmer. They do not want to disturb him again. + +They go back to their homes. They tell their moms what happened. + +"Sorry, mom. We disturbed the farmer and his pumpkin," Tom says. + +"Sorry, mom. We did not know he was deaf," Sue says. + +Their moms hug them. They say they are sorry too. They say they should be careful next time. They say they should not touch things that are not theirs. + +Tom and Sue say they understand. They say they will not disturb the farmer and his pumpkin again. They say they will be good friends. +Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair and a pink dress. Lily liked to change Anna's hair and dress every day. She was very thoughtful and careful with her dolls. + +One day, Lily and her mom went to the park. Lily brought Anna with her. She wanted to show Anna the flowers and the birds. Mom said, "Be careful, Lily. Don't lose Anna. She is very special to you." + +Lily nodded and held Anna tight. She walked around the park and saw many things. She saw a big dog, a red ball, a swing, and a slide. She wanted to try them all, but she did not forget Anna. She put Anna on a bench and said, "Wait here, Anna. I will be back soon. I want to play on the slide." + +Lily ran to the slide and climbed up. She was very happy and excited. She did not see a wild squirrel that came to the bench. The squirrel saw Anna and thought she was a nut. The squirrel grabbed Anna and ran away. + +Lily slid down and looked for Anna. She did not see her on the bench. She felt scared and sad. She cried, "Anna! Anna! Where are you?" + +Mom heard Lily and came to her. She asked, "What's wrong, Lily? What happened?" + +Lily sobbed, "Anna is gone! A wild squirrel took her! He thought she was a nut!" + +Mom hugged Lily and said, "Oh, no! I'm so sorry, Lily. That was very bad of the squirrel. Let's look for Anna. Maybe we can find her." + +Lily and Mom searched the park for Anna. They asked the dog, the ball, the swing, and the slide. But they did not know where Anna was. Lily felt hopeless and tired. She said, "We will never find Anna. She is lost forever." + +Mom said, "Don't give up, Lily. Maybe we can find a clue. Look, there is a trail of nuts on the ground. Maybe the squirrel dropped them. Let's follow them and see where they lead." + +Lily and Mom followed the trail of nuts. They went to a big tree. They saw a hole in the tree. They heard a noise inside. They looked inside and saw Anna. She was safe and sound. The squirrel had left her there. He had found out she was not a nut. + +Lily was overjoyed. She said, "Anna! Anna! You are here! I found you! I missed you so much!" + +She reached inside and took Anna out. She hugged her and kissed her. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I should have been more careful. I will never leave you alone again." + +Mom smiled and said, "I'm so happy for you, Lily. You are very lucky and brave. You found your doll. You are very thoughtful and careful with her." + +Lily and Mom left the park. They thanked the dog, the ball, the swing, and the slide. They did not thank the squirrel. They went home and played with Anna. Lily changed Anna's hair and dress. She was very happy and grateful. She said, "I love you, Anna. You are very special to me." +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to go to the park with their moms. The park has a big landscape with trees, flowers, grass and a pond. Lily and Tom like to see the ducks and the fish in the pond. + +One day, they go to the park and see a new thing. It is a big slide with a rainbow on it. Lily and Tom want to try it. They run to the slide and wait for their turn. + +"Wow, this slide is so big and colorful!" Lily says. + +"I bet it is very fun and fast!" Tom says. + +They climb up the stairs and sit on the slide. They hold hands and smile. Then they slide down together. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They laugh and scream with joy. + +They reach the bottom and jump off the slide. They hug each other and say, "That was awesome!" + +They run back to the stairs and slide again. They are very playful and happy. Their moms watch them and smile. They are glad that Lily and Tom have fun at the park. +Sara and Tom were twins who liked to act. They had a big box of costumes and toys that they used to pretend to be different people and animals. One day, they decided to act like Santa and his reindeer. They put on red hats and coats, and Tom tied a rope around his waist. Sara held the other end of the rope and said, "Come on, Tom, we have to deliver the presents!" + +They ran around the living room, stopping at each sofa and chair. Sara pretended to put a gift under each one, while Tom made noises like a reindeer. They had a lot of fun, until they saw the chimney.

He said, "But Sara, the chimney is very small. We might get stuck." Sara said, "Don't worry, Tom, we can do it. It will be fun!" She pulled Tom towards the chimney, and they climbed on a stool. They tried to squeeze into the chimney, but it was too narrow. They could not move, and they started to feel scared. They shouted, "Help! Help! We are stuck in the chimney!" + +Their mom heard their cries, and came to the living room. She saw their feet dangling from the chimney, and their red hats and coats. She was surprised and worried. She said, "Sara, Tom, what are you doing? You are not Santa and his reindeer, you are my children!" She grabbed their feet and pulled them out of the chimney. They were dirty and coughing, but they were safe. Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you are okay, but you should never try to go down the chimney. It is dangerous and dirty. You can act like Santa and his reindeer, but only on the floor, okay?" Sara and Tom nodded, and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We won't do it again." Mom smiled, and said, "It's okay, I love you. Now, let's go and clean up, and then we can have some cookies and milk." Sara and Tom agreed, and followed Mom to the bathroom. They learned their lesson, and never tried to go down the chimney again. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big bear in a cage. The bear looked sad and angry. + +"Let's go and see the bear," Ben said. + +"No, it is scary. It can hurt us," Lily said. + +Ben laughed. "You are a baby. I dare you to touch the bear. I will give you a candy if you do it." + +Lily did not want to be a baby. She wanted a candy. She walked slowly to the cage. The bear growled and showed its teeth. + +"Hello, bear. Don't be mad. I just want to be your friend," Lily said. + +The bear did not understand. It was ignorant. It did not like strangers. It tried to bite Lily's hand. + +Lily screamed and ran away. Ben was scared too. He dropped his candy and followed her. + +They ran to their mom. She hugged them and told them they were foolish. + +"Never dare to touch a wild animal. It is dangerous.

She did not know what school was like, and she wondered if the other children would be nice to her. She asked her mom, "Mom, will I like school? Will they like me?" + +Her mom smiled and hugged her. "Of course, you will like school, and they will like you. School is a fun place where you can play, explore and discover. You will have a teacher who will help you and a class who will accept you. You just have to be yourself, and be kind and respectful to others." + +Anna felt more confident and curious. She wanted to see what school was like, and what she could learn there. She said, "OK, mom, I will try school. I will be myself, and be kind and respectful. Maybe I will make some friends too." + +The next day, Anna went to school with her mom. She saw a big building with many windows and doors. She saw a playground with swings, slides and sand. She saw many children of different sizes, colors and clothes. She felt a bit shy, but also playful. + +She followed her mom to a room with a sign that said "Kindergarten". She saw a lady with a friendly face and a name tag that said "Mrs. Lee".

Use this spoon to stir the pasta," her mom said. She gave Lily a wooden spoon. + +Lily put the pasta in the pot. She stirred the pasta with the spoon. She watched the pasta change shape. It became soft and curly. + +"Why does the pasta change?" Lily asked her mom. + +"Because the water is hot. The pasta melts a little bit in the water. That's how it cooks," her mom explained. + +Lily nodded. She thought that was interesting. She wondered what else could melt in the water. + +She saw a block of cheese on the counter. She had an idea. She grabbed the cheese and ran to the pot. + +"Look, mom, I'm going to melt the cheese in the water too!" Lily said. She threw the cheese in the pot. + +"No, Lily, don't do that!" her mom shouted. She turned off the stove. She took the pot off the heat. She looked at the pot. The cheese was floating on top of the water. It was gooey and sticky. It mixed with the pasta. It made a big mess. + +"Lily, that was not a good idea. The cheese does not melt in the water like the pasta. It makes the pasta taste bad. And it's hard to clean the pot," her mom said. She was not happy. + +Lily felt sorry. She did not mean to make her mom unhappy. She did not know the cheese would do that. + +"I'm sorry, mom. I was just curious. I wanted to see what would happen," Lily said. She looked at her mom with big eyes. + +Her mom sighed. She saw that Lily was sorry. She saw that Lily was curious. She was thoughtful. She decided to forgive Lily. + +"It's okay, Lily. I know you were curious. But next time, ask me before you try something new. And don't waste food. We can still eat the pasta. We just have to take out the cheese. Do you want to help me?" her mom said. + +Lily nodded. She smiled. She was glad her mom was not angry. She wanted to help her mom. She learned something new. She learned that cheese does not melt in water. She learned that pasta does. She learned that she should be careful and ask questions. She hugged her mom. + +"I love you, mom. And I love pasta. Even with cheese," Lily said. + +"I love you too, Lily. And I love pasta. Even with cheese," her mom said. They hugged and laughed. They ate pasta for dinner. It was cheesy and yummy. +Tom and Anna like to play with bricks. They make houses and towers and cars with them. They have many bricks of different colors and shapes.

The tire rocks back and forth. + +Ben and Mia take turns pushing and rocking the tire. They laugh and have fun. They pretend the tire is a boat or a car or a spaceship. + +But then, the tire rocks too hard. It falls over and rolls away. Ben and Mia run after it. + +"Stop, tire, stop!" they shout. But the tire does not stop. It rolls down the hill and into the street. + +"Oh no, the tire is gone!" Ben says. He feels sad. + +"Me too," Mia says. She feels sad too. + +They look at each other. They hug. They are still friends. + +"Maybe we can find another cool thing to play with," Ben says. + +"Maybe," Mia says. "But not a tire." + +They walk back to the yard. They look for something else to rock. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big statue of a man on a horse.

Ben asked. + +"No, honey, it's too hot. The sun makes the metal burn. You could hurt your hand," mom said. + +Anna and Ben nodded. They did not want to burn their hand. They looked at the statue from far away. They liked how it sparkled in the light. + +"Mom, can we make a statue too?" Anna asked. + +"Sure, we can try. Let's go to the sandbox and use some sand and water," mom said. + +Anna and Ben followed mom to the sandbox. They found some buckets and shovels. They scooped some sand and poured some water. They mixed them together and made a ball. Then they shaped the ball into a person. + +"Look, mom, we made a statue!" Ben said. + +"Wow, you did a great job! Who is your statue?" mom asked. + +"It's you, mom. You are our hero. You help us every day," Anna said. + +Mom smiled and hugged Anna and Ben.

Ben said, holding up his mud creation. + +"Thank you, Ben, it looks yummy!" Sara said, pretending to eat it. "Do you want some of mine?" + +"Yes, please!" Ben said, and they shared their pies. + +They did not notice that the sun was going down and the light was fading. They were too busy playing. + +But then they heard their mom calling them from the house. + +"Sara! Ben! Time to come in and get ready for bed!" + +They looked up and realized it was dark. They could not see their pies anymore. + +"Uh-oh, we played too long," Sara said. + +"Let's go, mom will be mad," Ben said. + +They ran to the house, leaving their pies behind. They hoped mom would not see how filthy they were. +Bella was a dog who loved to play with her friends. She liked to run, jump, and chase balls. One day, she saw a new dog in the park.

Can I have a bite?" Bella said, licking her lips. + +"No, you can't. This is my bone. Go away!" Rex said, growling. + +"But you are new here. You should be nice and share. That is how we welcome new friends." Bella said, trying to be polite. + +"I don't care. I don't need friends. I only need this bone. Now, leave me alone, or I will bite you!" Rex said, showing his sharp teeth. + +Bella was scared and sad. She did not want to fight with Rex. She wanted to play with him and have fun. She turned around and ran away, crying. She did not understand why Rex was so mean and greedy. She hoped he would change his mind and be a good friend someday. But Rex did not care. He was happy with his bone, but he was also lonely and hated. +Tim and Anna liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing and climb on the equipment. One day, they saw a new equipment in the park. It was very big and had many parts. It looked like a spaceship. + +"Wow, look at that!" Tim said. "Let's go and play on it!" + +Anna felt fearful.

It's my hose, so it doesn't match yours." + +Sina crossed her arms and replied, "But I already put it in, so it does match now." + +Teddy didn't know what to say.
