Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play with their toy horses. They had many horses of different colors and sizes, but they did not have a stable to keep them in. They decided to plan how to make a stable with some cardboard boxes and paper.
They asked their moms for some boxes and paper, and they went to the backyard. They cut and taped the boxes to make walls and a roof. They drew windows and doors with crayons. They used paper to make hay and fences. They worked hard and had fun.
When they finished, they put their horses inside the stable. They were very proud of their work. They invited their moms to see their stable. Their moms smiled and praised them.
"Wow, what a nice stable you made!" Lily's mom said. "You are very creative and clever!"
"Thank you, mom!" Lily said. "We planned it together!"
"Yes, you did a great job!" Ben's mom said. "You are very cooperative and kind!"
"Thank you, mom!" Ben said. "We shared our boxes and paper!"
Their moms hugged them and gave them some cookies. Lily and Ben enjoyed their cookies and played with their horses. They learned that planning and sharing can make modest things beautiful and fun.
