Once upon a time, there were three little mice. They were very special because they couldn’t see very well. Let’s see what adventures they had!
The three little mice loved to run around. One day, they ran after a farmer’s wife. She was surprised and didn’t know what to do, so she waved her big knife. But don’t worry, the mice were okay!
The mice decided to visit a doctor to check their eyes. The doctor was very kind and gave them special glasses called spectacles. When the mice put them on, they could see everything clearly! They were so happy and thanked the doctor.
With their new glasses, the mice went back home. They were so excited to see everything clearly. They ran around happily and even played a little trick on the farmer’s wife by hiding her knife. It was all in good fun!
One day, the mice found some special medicine. They put it on their tails while singing a happy song. Guess what? Their tails grew long and strong again! The mice were thrilled and danced with joy.
The three little mice were now very happy. They could see well with their glasses, and their tails were perfect. They lived happily ever after, always ready for more fun adventures!
Wasn’t that a fun story? I hope you enjoyed it. See you next time for more exciting tales!
Make Your Own Spectacles: Just like the three little mice, you can make your own pretend spectacles! Use pipe cleaners or craft sticks to create a pair of glasses. Once you’ve made them, put them on and pretend to be one of the mice. What new things can you see around your classroom or home? Share with your friends or family what you discover!
Observation Walk: Go on a short walk around your school or neighborhood with your teacher or a parent. Look for things that you might not have noticed before. Can you spot something new or interesting? Maybe a colorful flower or a tiny bug? Talk about how the mice felt when they could see clearly for the first time and how seeing new things makes you feel.
Story Time Role Play: With your friends, act out the story of the three little mice. You can take turns being the mice, the farmer’s wife, and the doctor. Use props like a toy knife or a stethoscope to make it more fun. Think about how each character feels during the story and talk about it with your friends. How do the mice feel when they get their glasses? How does the farmer’s wife feel when the mice play a trick on her?
Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:
