Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Tim. He had a big, red ball. He loved to play with the ball all day long. One day, Tim was playing with the ball inside his house. He threw the ball high up in the air. The ball went up, up, up, and hit the ceiling. It made a loud noise.
Tim's mommy came into the room. She saw the ball on the floor. She told Tim, "Be careful when you play with the ball inside the house. The ceiling is high, and it can be scary if the ball gets stuck up there."
Tim did not want his ball to get stuck on the scary ceiling. So, he took his ball outside to play. He threw the ball up in the air and watched it rise high above his head. Tim was happy to play outside with his ball, where it was safe and fun. And the scary ceiling stayed far away.
