Once upon a time, there was a group of friends who loved to play games together. They would often skip around and play hide and seek, but their favorite activity was playing all sorts of sports. They would skate around the park, play badminton, chess, basketball, and football. But one day, they decided to try something new. They wanted to play a game of word puzzles. So, they all sat down and started chatting with their friends about what kind of word puzzles they wanted to play. Suddenly, one of them had an idea. "Let's play a game of volleyball, but instead of using a ball, we'll use our word puzzles!" And so, they did! They jumped, ran, and skipped around the court, shouting out their word puzzles as they passed the ball back and forth. It was so much fun, and they all laughed so hard that their sides hurt. From that day on, they made sure to always mix things up and try new games, so they never got bored. The end.
