Read together

Once upon a time, there was a small village where all the sports were mixed up. Footballs were played with table tennis paddles, tennis balls were hit with hockey sticks, baseballs were bounced like basketballs, and badminton birdies were hit with feet! The villagers were so confused, but they still had fun playing these strange games. One day, a wise old man came to the village and showed them the correct way to play each sport. From that day on, the villagers played each sport correctly and had even more fun! The end.
