Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Emma who loved to play with her toys. One day, she received a new doll as a gift and placed it in a box. She also had a drum, a top, a kite, a ball, a car, a bell, a bus, a ship, and a lorry.

Emma wanted to have a big toy parade and invited all her toys to join. The dolls came first and danced to the beat of the drum. The top spun around, the kite flew high, the ball bounced, the car zoomed, the bell rang, and the bus honked.

But when the ship and the lorry arrived, they found out they were too big to fit in the parade. So, they decided to make their own parade on top of the box. The lorry honked, the ship sailed, and the box became a plane that flew the two vehicles around the room.

The whole room filled with laughter as the toys played together and had fun. And that’s how Emma’s toy parade became a magical and hilarious adventure.
