Once upon a time there was a group of friends who loved to do lots of different things. One day, they decided to have a fun-filled day at home with all their favorite activities! They started off the day by surfing the Internet and watching DVDs.

But after a while, they realized they needed to take a break from screen time and do some chores. So, they cleared the table, swept the floor and washed the dishes together. They even dried the dishes while making silly jokes and sending messages to each other.

Next, it was time for some physical activity. They played soccer in the backyard and took turns taking out the trash. In between games, they would collect baseball cards, vacuum the carpet and play badminton.

By the end of the day, they were exhausted but happy. They learned that having fun and doing chores can go hand in hand. The moral of the story: "A clean house, a happy home!"
