Sam and Mia were best friends. They liked to play in the park near their homes. One day, they saw a big sack near the gate of the park. They wondered what was inside.
"Let's open it and see," Sam said.
"Maybe it's a surprise," Mia said.
They ran to the sack and pulled the string. The sack opened and out came a lot of toys. There were dolls, cars, balls, books, and more. Sam and Mia were very happy. They picked up the toys and started to play.
But then, they heard a loud voice. It was the park keeper. He was angry.
"Hey, you two! What are you doing with my sack? That's for the children in the hospital. Give it back right now!"
Sam and Mia were scared. They did not know the sack was for the sick children. They felt sorry.
"We're sorry, sir. We didn't know. We just wanted to play," Sam said.
"Yeah, we're sorry. We'll give it back," Mia said.
The park keeper saw their faces. He was compassionate. He knew they did not mean to do wrong.
"It's okay, kids. I understand. You can keep one toy each. But the rest you have to give back. The children in the hospital need them more than you do. Do you understand?"
Sam and Mia nodded. They thanked the park keeper and gave back the sack. They chose one toy each. Sam picked a car and Mia picked a doll. They hugged the toys and smiled.
They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be kind and to share. They also learned to be grateful for what they have. They were still best friends. And they still liked to play in the park. But they never touched the sack near the gate again.
