FUN LEARNING ACTIVITY 📚

⁉️ Mexico! Your turn;)

Dear Lovely buddies 🙏😍 Please read and record Thinking Out of the Box (Creative Thinking): In a small Italian town, hundreds of years ago, a small business owner owed a large sum of money to a loan-shark. The loan-shark was a very old, unattractive looking guy that just so happened to fancy the business owner’s daughter. He decided to offer the businessman a deal that would completely wipe out the debt he owed him. However, the catch was that we would only wipe out the debt if he could marry the businessman’s daughter. Needless to say, this proposal was met with a look of disgust. The loan-shark said that he would place two pebbles into a bag, one white and one black. The daughter would then have to reach into the bag and pick out a pebble. If it was black, the debt would be wiped, but the loan-shark would then marry her. If it was white, the debt would also be wiped, but the daughter wouldn’t have to marry the loan-shark. Standing on a pebble-strewn path in the businessman’s garden, the loan-shark bent over and picked up two pebbles. Whilst he was picking them up, the daughter noticed that he’d picked up two black pebbles and placed them both into the bag. He then asked the daughter to reach into the bag and pick one. The daughter naturally had three choices as to what she could have done: Refuse to pick a pebble from the bag. Take both pebbles out of the bag and expose the loan-shark for cheating. Pick a pebble from the bag fully well knowing it was black and sacrifice herself for her father’s freedom. She drew out a pebble from the bag, and before looking at it ‘accidentally’ dropped it into the midst of the other pebbles. She said to the loan-shark; “Oh, how clumsy of me. Never mind, if you look into the bag for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble I picked.” The pebble left in the bag is obviously black, and seeing as the loan-shark didn’t want to be exposed, he had to play along as if the pebble the daughter dropped was white, and clear her father’s debt. Moral: It’s always possible to overcome a tough situation throughout of the box thinking, and not give in to the only options you think you have to pick from. Thank you. ❤🍎

THE HAPPY BOY AND THE WISE OLD MAN A Short Moral Story. There was a boy who was always cheerful and happy. One day, he went to a wise old man and said to him. "I'm very happy, naturally. And I don't ever want to lose my happiness. Can you tell me some happiness-destroying habits I should avoid?". The wise old man paused for a moment and said. "Oh, yes, I can. But before that, I have a little task for you. Once you have performed this little task for me, I'm going to teach you what you need to know". The boy whistled, smiling. "What's the task, pa?" The old man replied. "I have an empty barrel in my backyard, and I want you to fill it up with water. I'll reward you with three coins once you're done. You'll have money to buy something for yourself. Three coins, all for you, boy!". The boy became very excited as he was greatly in need of money. He took a bucket and rushed down to the stream to fetch water. After some minutes, he told the old man he had filled up the barrel. The old man said. "Oh, I forgot there's another empty barrel in the kitchen. Would you mind filling it up as well? I'll offer you another three coins, that's a total of six coins. You'll buy a lot of things for yourself with that money. Six coins, all for you, boy!". At that moment, the boy was determined to earn six coins. He hurriedly left for the stream, and in a short while, he filled up the barrel with water. When he went back to the old man, the man said. "Oh my goodness, I'm such a forgetful old man. I didn't remember there's another empty barrel in my garden. If you can fill it up with water, I'll add three coins to your six coins, and you'll get nine coins altogether. Imagine what you'll buy with such amount of money. Nine coins, all for you, young lad!". A look of cheerful excitement flashed across the boy's face. He found himself thinking about what he would do with nine coins. It didn't take him long to fill up the third barrel. Then he went back to the old man. However, instead of handing him the coins, the old man exclaimed. "Oh no, I just realized I don't have any money on me. I am broke and I don't have any coin to give to you. I'm so sorry". Upon hearing that, the smile on the boy's face suddenly disappeared, leaving it gloomy and dull. He became unhappy. Just then, the old man began to smile, and surprisingly, he said. "Don't worry, boy, I've got some coins for you. Remember when you asked me to tell you some habits that can destroy a person's happiness? Well, it may surprise you to know that everything I did was an intention to make you unhappy. In this way, I believe I can teach you properly. Listen up, boy... expectations are the real enemy of happiness. Just like how you expected nine coins from me, but became sad when you didn't get it. When we do something for someone, we tend to expect some favour or feelings from them which may not happen. Most of the time, our expectations are too high or unrealistic to be fulfilled by someone. We expect people to love us because we love them. We expect people to be good to us because we are good to them. We expect things to go our way. All of these things can easily cause frustration, disappointment, discouragement, stress, anger and resentment. However, if we lower our expectations of people and understand that they won't always live up to it, we can be happier in life".

Dear lovely friends 🙏😍 Today's topic '' Adoption '' Are there the orphanages in your country? Have you ever heard some people abandon their children? If yes... what do you think why they leave their children? And Where do they leave their children? Imagine !!! 😃 How would you feel when you found out that you were an adopted child? What would you do when your parents asked your adopted brother or sister to keep all of the important documents and properties? ( If he/she hogged your properties) Did you want to adopt a child if you didn't have any children? It's an interesting topic. Looking  forward to hearing it from you guys. 😃 And feel free to correct my writing. 🙏 Thank you. ❤🍎
