Once upon a time in a land far away,
There lived a young boy who loved to play.
He had a handsome smile and curious eyes,
And a heart that was full of endless surprise.

One day, he saw a spectacle so grand,
The enormity of it made him stand.
He marveled at the proportion and size,
And wondered how it reached such great heights.

He asked an envious friend who stood near,
"How can we have something so dear?"
The friend replied, "It's not just about size,
It's about using what you have to your advantage and wise."

He explained how to discard what you don't need,
And use proper care for the things you keep.
"Remember, it's not always about being big,
But making the most of what you've got is the gig."

The young boy listened and learned with glee,
And realized how important it is to see,
The beauty in things both big and small,
And how to make the most out of them all.

From that day on, he saw the world anew,
With eyes that shone with a brightened view.
He learned to appreciate the wonders around,
And to use them to his advantage, he found.

So young ones, always remember this tale,
And to use what you have, and never fail,
To see the beauty in all things, big or small,
And to make the most of them, one and all.

Reflections

Here are some questions to ask kids to think about the story:

1. What did the young boy see that was so spectacular, and how did it make him feel?
2. How did the young boy's friend explain the importance of using what you have to your advantage?
3. Why is it important to appreciate the beauty in things both big and small?
4. How did the young boy's perspective change after learning his friend's wisdom?
5. Can you think of a time when you made the most of what you had and it turned out to be an advantage?
