Why did Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter all decide to open a store together?

Because they wanted to be in the season-al business!

One day, Spring decided that she was tired of always being associated with just rain and flowers. She wanted to branch out and sell more products. Summer, who was always up for a good time, said that she was in. Fall was a little hesitant at first, but then she realized that she could sell all the yummy autumn treats she wanted. And Winter? Well, Winter was just happy to be included in anything.

So, the four seasons opened up a store called “The Four Seasons Emporium”, selling everything from sun hats to hot cocoa. Business was booming! But then, one day, Spring and Summer got into a huge argument over who got to sell sunglasses. Fall tried to intervene, but she only made things worse. Winter, who had been quiet the whole time, finally spoke up and said, "Why don't we each sell what we're good at? That way, everyone wins!"

And so, they did just that. Spring sold all sorts of seeds and gardening tools. Summer sold sunscreen and beach balls. Fall sold apple cider and pumpkin pie. And Winter sold winter jackets and sleds. The store became even more popular, and the four seasons all became best friends.

From that day on, Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter all laughed and joked about how silly their argument was. They learned that working together was way better than fighting. And whenever someone walked into their store, they would always say, "Welcome to the Four Seasons Emporium, where the seasons come together to bring you the best products all year round!"
