Once upon a time, there was a furniture store where all the pieces of furniture came to life when no one was around. One day, the carpet, armchair, TV, sofa, chair, picture, and table were getting bored in their store display. They decided to have a race to see who could reach the finish line first.

The carpet started to roll up and down, the armchair waddled like a penguin, the TV bounced up and down, the sofa hopped like a bunny, the chair crawled on all fours, the picture danced while hanging on the wall, and the table walked on its legs.

It was a close race, but in the end, the armchair won by a waddle! All the furniture cheered and celebrated by having a dance party on the showroom floor. From that day on, they had races every week and always cheered each other on.

The end.

Reflections

• Which piece of furniture won the race?
• How did each piece of furniture move in the race?
• What did the furniture do to celebrate after the race?
• What kind of tradition did the furniture start after the race?
