Once upon a time, there was a group of friends who loved to play games together. They had a big day of fun planned! They started the day by playing chess, but they soon realized that it was too boring. So they decided to mix things up by playing word puzzles while skipping around the room.

Next, they headed outside to play volleyball, but it was too hot. So they decided to go ice skating instead. After a few falls and laughs, they played a game of hide and seek on the ice. When they were all found, they took a break to chat with their friends.

Feeling refreshed, they went to play badminton and basketball. But the badminton birdie kept flying away, and the basketball kept bouncing off the rim. So they decided to call it a day and make some hot cocoa to warm up. They all laughed and said, "Maybe we should stick to just playing games on paper from now on!"

Reflections

1. What games did the friends play?
2. Why did they change from playing volleyball to ice skating?
3. What happened when they played badminton and basketball?
4. Why did they decide to stick to paper games?
5. Can you think of other games they could play together?
