Once upon a time, there was a family of 8. Mum, Aunt, Grandpa, Brother, Uncle, Dad, Grandma and Cousin. They decided to have a picnic in the park. But, things didn't go as planned. Uncle brought ants instead of sandwiches, Aunt brought a cat instead of a hat, Grandpa brought a map of Mars instead of a napkin, Brother brought his frog instead of a hot dog, Dad brought a ladder instead of a frisbee, Grandma brought her gardening tools instead of games, and Cousin brought a bunch of bananas instead of a ball. But the best part was when Mum showed up with a turkey instead of a picnic basket! Despite the mix-ups, they still had a great time and laughed a lot that day. The end.

Reflections

1. What did each family member bring to the picnic?
2. Who had the funniest mix-up?
3. Why was the family still able to have a good time despite the mix-ups?
