Once upon a time, there was a carpet who was feeling very bored because no one ever played with him. One day, he noticed the table and sofa were having a great time together.

The carpet asked, "Why don't you ever invite me to play?"

The table and sofa said, "Well, you're just a carpet, what could you possibly do?"

The carpet thought for a moment, then had an idea. He said, "I know! Let's put on a show!"

So the carpet, table, sofa, chair, TV, armchair, and picture all got together and decided to put on a play. The carpet was the stage, the table was the props, the sofa and chair were the actors, the TV was the special effects, the armchair was the director, and the picture was the backdrop.

They worked hard all day, and finally, it was time for the show. The audience was filled with toys and stuffed animals, and they were all very excited.

The play was a huge success! Everyone cheered and clapped, and the carpet was so happy that he finally got to be a part of the fun. From then on, they all played together every day, and the carpet was no longer bored.

The end.

Reflections

1. What was the carpet feeling before the play?
2. How did the carpet come up with the idea for the play?
3. Who was the audience for the play?
4. What did each object play in the play?
5. How did the audience react to the play?
