Lucy, Ben, Mia, and Leo are four friends. They have big smiles and bright eyes. Today, they play in Lucy's backyard. “Let's have an adventure!” says Lucy. Everyone claps and says, “Yes!”
First, they tiptoe through the soft green grass. “Swish, swish,” goes the grass. Mia sees a shiny red ball stuck under a bush. She says, “Let's help the ball!”
Ben crawls under the bush. “Rustle, rustle,” goes the bush. He cannot reach. Leo brings a stick. He pokes gently. “Boop!” The ball rolls out. Mia hugs her friends. “Thank you!” giggles Mia.
Now, they see a big puddle. It looks like a shiny lake. Lucy says, “Let's hop across!” “Hop, hop, splash!” They all jump. Leo slips—“Plop!”—but his friends catch his hand. “I'm okay!” laughs Leo.
Next, they spot a row of tiny ants. The ants march in a line. “Let's follow!” says Ben. They tiptoe after the ants. “March, march, tickle!” The ants go under a little rock. The friends peek too. They see crumbs from a cookie. “Yum!” says Mia. They leave the crumbs for the ants.
Soon, the sun feels warm. “Time for snack!” says Lucy. They sit on a soft blanket. They eat apple slices and sing a song. “La la la!” Their cheeks are rosy. They are happy together.
At the end, they cuddle close. They feel proud and brave.
Being kind and helping friends makes every day a special adventure.
