Once upon a time, in a far-off land, there lived a group of friends who loved to have fun. Every day, they would see new sights, play games, read books, sing songs, and dance to the music. They were always on the go, and never wanted to sit still for too long.

One day, the friends decided to have a picnic in the park. They gathered together all of the ingredients to cook a delicious meal and set off early in the morning. When they arrived at the park, they found the perfect spot to lay out their blanket and sit down to eat.

But as soon as they sat down, they realized that sitting for so long wasn't very much fun. They wanted to play, sing, and dance, so they quickly packed up their things and set off to explore the park.

They saw all sorts of interesting things as they walked around - a pond full of ducks, a playground full of children, and a bandstand where a group of musicians were playing.

The friends couldn't resist the music, and they started to dance and sing along. They even read the lyrics from the sheet music that the band provided.

As the day went on, the friends had so much fun that they didn't want to go home. They played, read, sang, danced, and cooked together until the sun went down.

When it was time to go home, the friends were tired but happy. They had had the best day ever and couldn't wait to do it all again the next day. From then on, they made sure to stand up and be active whenever they felt like sitting down.
