A long time ago, in the vast African savannah, giraffes had short necks just like people. They roamed the land, munching on grass and low-hanging leaves. Among them was a particularly curious giraffe named Gigi. One sunny day, Gigi's friend, Chicken, decided to play a little trick. Chicken knew that Gigi loved palm leaf soup more than anything else in the world. So, Chicken made a big pot of the delicious soup and hid it high up in the tallest tree. When Gigi caught the scent of the soup, her mouth watered, and she couldn't resist. She looked up at the tree and saw the pot of soup perched on a high branch. Determined to taste it, Gigi began to stretch her neck. She stretched and stretched, but the soup was still out of reach. Gigi didn't give up. She kept stretching her neck higher and higher until, finally, she managed to get her head into the tree. But as she tried to take a sip, her head got stuck between the branches! Poor Gigi was trapped. For 100 years, Gigi remained stuck in the tree. The other animals tried to help, but it took a long time to figure out how to free her. Eventually, they worked together and managed to rescue Gigi. When she was finally free, Gigi's neck had become incredibly long from all that stretching. From that day on, all giraffes had long necks, just like Gigi. They could reach the highest leaves and enjoy the tastiest treats, all thanks to Gigi's love for palm leaf soup and her determination to reach it. And that's how the giraffe got its long neck.

This is Peddy, and she is excited for her first day of school. Peddy kissed her mom and dad goodbye and walked out the door. As she happily sang, she made sure to walk on the side of the road where she could see approaching vehicles. On her way, Peddy saw Ian using his phone while walking and gasped, "Oh no!" She quickly approached Ian and said, "Good morning, Ian! Don’t use your phone while walking; it’s dangerous." Ian quickly put his phone away. "Oh, hi! Thank you for telling me, Peddy. Come on, let’s walk together!" As they continued walking, Peddy noticed white lines painted across the road. "Ian, we should walk on the pedestrian lane. Pedestrian lanes are designed to help us cross the road safely." They were about to cross when Peddy saw a traffic light ahead with three different colors. She stopped at the sidewalk. Ian looked at Peddy in confusion. "Why did you stop, Peddy? Come on! There are no cars anymore; we can cross the road." Peddy shook her head. "No, Ian. The traffic light is green, which means vehicles can go. Red means stop, and yellow means slow down." Ian then noticed the pedestrian signal. "Does the hand palm sign mean we should wait and not cross yet?" Peddy nodded. "Yes! And look, now the walking man signal has lit up. That means we can cross safely. That’s a pedestrian signal!" Ian was about to step forward, but Peddy stopped him again. "Before crossing, we should always follow the Stop, Look, and Listen rule. Stop before stepping onto the road. Look for approaching vehicles. Sometimes you can’t see them, so listen carefully for any nearby cars. If it’s all clear, then we can cross." Ian nodded, understanding the safety rules. Finally, Peddy and Ian walked across the pedestrian lane safely. They greeted the school guard happily, feeling secure and ready for their first day of school.

Once upon a time, there was a gentle bear named Bramble. Bramble loved his cozy den, the tall trees, and the rivers that sparkled under the sky. He was content with his simple life, happy to wander through the forest and snuggle up at night, thinking his world was perfectly complete. One day, while foraging for berries, Bramble saw a fox darting through the flowers. She was bright and clever, with a coat that shimmered like sunshine. Her name was Lyra, and she moved with such grace that Bramble couldn’t help but feel a little clumsy watching her. When Lyra noticed Bramble, she greeted him with a friendly smile, her golden eyes shining like tiny suns. “Hello, Bramble,” she said. “Why don’t you join me on a stroll?” At first, Bramble felt shy. He’d never met anyone quite like Lyra, so full of life and adventure. But as he walked with her through the meadows and climbed the hills, he began to feel a spark of excitement he hadn’t felt before. Lyra showed him how to dance in the rain, how to look up at the stars, and how to chase the wind. For the first time, Bramble noticed how wonderful it was to learn and grow. He wanted to become stronger, kinder, and even a little braver, just so he could keep up with his new friend. As the seasons passed, Bramble began to change. His steps became lighter, his heart more open, and his smile a little brighter each day. When winter came, Bramble invited Lyra to his cozy den, sharing stories and laughter as snowflakes drifted outside. And in that warmth, Bramble realized something special: Lyra had helped him become the very best bear he could be.
