Once upon a time, there was a group of vegetables who lived in a garden. Cabbage, Peas, Onion, Potato, Tomato, Carrot, Corn, Cauliflower, Cucumber, Eggplant and Lettuce were friends. They all loved to play together and have fun.
One day, they decided to play hide and seek. Cucumber suggested that he would be the one to count and everyone else would hide. So, Cucumber started counting while the others went to hide.
Carrot disguised herself as a tree with green leaves made of Lettuce. Potato became a big rock, Tomato hid inside an empty corn cob, and Cauliflower became a white cloud.
When Cucumber finished counting, he couldn't find any of his friends. He was getting worried until he heard a voice calling out, "Peek-a-boo, I see you!" It was Carrot, who had found him first.
Cucumber was so happy that he laughed and shouted, "You win! You win! Let's play again!" And so they did, having even more fun on their next game of hide and seek. The end.

Reflections

1. Which vegetable do you think was the best at hiding?
2. Can you think of another way that Potato could have disguised himself?
3. If you were Cucumber, where would you have looked first to find your friends?
4. Why do you think Cucumber was so happy when Carrot found him first?
