“Once upon a time, there were two children who were friends. They lived on an island that had many trees and many toys. It was very sunny and very hot. On that island lived other children as well, who were always fighting with each other and were not friends. Then the two friends, who didn’t like what they saw, went up to them and said, ‘Don’t fight, be friends!’ but their effort was in vain…”

Friendship/Hostility

So, wise kids decided to organize a clean-up day and make some arrangements and build-ups on the island. First, they built benches and sand boxes for playing. They created nice walking places and shelters from the sun, so the other kids could play and hide from the sun on a hot day. The children liked the idea  and followed the young enthusiasts everywhere. Little by little, they started to help with cleaning and construction. After hard work they went boating together and spent a great time!
Soon, there was a big company of friends, not rivals, working together and having fun!!

Collaboration and common goals can make great things!

He asked for help and immediately he pulled him up.Then they understood that they have to co-operate to fix the bridge to pass to the other village and they managed to bring the supplies together.

Quote: Conflicts can't help us co-operation can bring great results!

    Generosity

After trust returned to the island, the children found a big tree full of fruit near the river. There was enough fruit for everyone.

Instead of keeping it for themselves, the children decided to share.
 They filled baskets and gave fruit to friends who were tired or hungry.

One child said,
 “When we share, everyone is happy.”

Soon, the island felt warm and joyful again. The children laughed, ate together, and helped each other. They learned that generosity makes friendships grow and brings happiness to all.

Greed

One day, a child saw the fruit tree and thought,
 “If I take more, I will have more than others.”

The child hid fruit and did not share. Soon, others had less to eat. People felt upset and lonely.

The fruit began to rot, and the child felt sad and guilty.
 “I was greedy,” the child said. “I should have shared.”

The friends talked and forgave each other. They decided to always share fairly.

The children learned that greed hurts everyone, but generosity makes life better for all.

Moral

Sharing brings joy. Greed brings sadness.

Greed

The island was divided by a calm river flowing through a land full of trees. There was an old but strong bridge over the river. The children living on the island played together every day and loved discovering new things.

Two wise friends always talked to the other children about the importance of patience. “If you wait for the right moment, even the river will show you the way,” they said. The other children on the island listened to them, patiently fishing by the river or crossing the bridge one by one.

However, the greedy children were very impatient. They wanted everything immediately and never waited for their turn. One day, as they rushed across the bridge, they forgot to stop and look around, and they missed the beauty of the river.

The wise friends stood under the shade of the trees and watched the flow of the river. When they waited patiently, they crossed the bridge safely and discovered all the beauty the island had to offer. That day, everyone learned an important lesson: patience leads you to the right place at the right time.

       “Patience is the key to crossing even the hardest bridges safely.”
