Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Sue. She was a great girl, and she always liked to play.
One day, Sue went to the park with her mom. Sue wanted to start playing, but first her mom told her to stretch. Sue didn’t want to stop playing, so she said to her mom, “Why should I do that? I just want to play!”
Her mom smiled and told Sue, “Stretching is important. It will help you play better. Plus it’s a great way to get started.”
So Sue listened to her mom and stretched for a few minutes. When she was done stretching, she felt ready to play. She ran around the park, chasing her friends and having a great time.
At the end of the day, Sue realized that stretching before she started playing really did help. From then on, she always stretched before she started playing, and she had lots of fun!
The moral of this story is that taking the time to stretch before you start playing is a great way to get ready. Stretching helps you do your best, and it makes playtime more fun!
