We Are (Not) Friends!

Once upon a time, there were some kids playing together. One of them asked, “Can I play with you?” The other said, “Yes, well thanks!” They were happy and started playing music together. It was fun!

Playing Dinosaur Hunters

After a while, they decided to play a new game called “Dinosaur Hunters!” They pretended to be explorers looking for dinosaurs. One of them asked, “Where’s our friend?” Another replied, “We are friends!” But someone said, “We are not friends.” It was a little confusing, but they kept playing.

Building a Jeep

Next, they had a great idea to build a car, like a Jeep! They worked together because “great minds think alike.” But when they finished, they realized it was a two-seater. “Where do I sit?” one asked. “You can be the dinosaur!” they decided. So, the friend pretended to be a big, roaring T-Rex. “Roar louder!” they cheered. “Roar!” went the T-Rex, and everyone clapped.

Best Friends Forever

After all the fun, they realized something special. “You are right, we are not friends; we are best friends!” they said happily. And they even made a new friend to join their games. “Do you want to play spies?” they asked. “Yeah!” everyone shouted with excitement.
