Once upon a time, in a magical place called Grammarland, there was a wise ruler named King Grammar. He loved to travel around his kingdom to make sure everyone knew how to use words correctly.
One day, King Grammar met a funny character named King Juggling. King Juggling loved to sing and dance, but his songs were missing something special.
King Grammar had a great idea! He told King Juggling, “Why not use some nouns in your songs to make them more exciting?”
King Juggling was curious. “Nouns? What are those?” he asked.
King Grammar explained, “A noun is a word that names a person, a place, a thing, or an animal. Can you say it with me? A person, place, thing, or animal!”
King Juggling thought this was a fantastic idea! He started to imagine all the fun things he could sing about:
King Grammar encouraged everyone in Grammarland to practice using nouns. He said, “Remember, nouns can be a person, a thing, a place, or an animal!”
King Juggling added, “Oh, and don’t forget, an animal too!”
As King Grammar waved goodbye to the people of Grammarland, he felt happy knowing that everyone was learning about the magic of nouns.
And so, the music played on, and the kingdom was filled with joyful songs full of wonderful nouns!
Noun Hunt: Go on a noun hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects, people, animals, and places. Write down or draw pictures of the nouns you find. Can you find at least five nouns in each category? Share your list with a friend or family member and see if they can add more nouns to your list!
Noun Storytime: Create a short story using at least ten different nouns. You can use nouns to describe the characters, setting, and objects in your story. Once your story is ready, draw a picture to go along with it. Share your story and picture with the class or your family. Can they spot all the nouns you used?
Noun Song Remix: Choose a simple song or nursery rhyme you know well. Try to add new nouns to the song to make it more exciting, just like King Juggling did! For example, if you’re singing “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,” you might add nouns like “cat,” “tree,” or “car.” Perform your new version of the song for your classmates or family and see if they can guess the nouns you added!

Once upon a time, long ago, King Grammar traveled through his kingdom, ensuring that all of his people had everything they needed to be good citizens of Grammarland.
King Juggling: “Oh, Bravo, sir! Your song is charming, but why not use a few nouns to make it more interesting?”
King Grammar: “Nouns? Absolutely, kind sir! A noun is a person, place, thing, or animal. Say it with me: a person, place, thing, or animal!”
King Juggling: “Instead of only singing about leaping, add a few nouns, and you can have knights leaping down a street! Instead of milking, why not sing of a farmer milking his cow? Or instead of simply juggling, sing of a boy juggling apples? And why sing only of dancing when you can sing of children dancing in a fountain?”
King Grammar: “Now you say it: nouns can be a person, a thing, a place, or an animal!”
King Juggling: “Oh, I mean an animal!”
King Grammar: “Farewell, people of Grammar Kingdom! Thank you for bringing us…”
