Teddy is a small, curious bear with soft brown fur and a big, friendly smile. Today, he wakes up feeling extra excited because the garden looks so magical and new.
"Good morning, sunshine! What fun can we find today?"
Children, can you wave hello to Teddy? Let’s all say, "Hello, Teddy!" together.
Teddy spots something shiny by the tomato plants. It’s a small, golden key! But what could it open?
"Hmm, what do you think this key unlocks?"
Can you count to three with Teddy? One, two, three—let’s go!
Sally Squirrel is brave and loves solving puzzles.
"Hi Teddy! Did you find something special?"
"Yes, Sally! I found a golden key. Can you help me look for what it unlocks?"
Children, let’s pretend to look around—point to where you think the key goes!
"Oh dear, what if I never find what this key unlocks?"
"Don’t worry, Teddy! God loves you and will help us if we ask,"
Teddy folds his paws and whispers, "Dear God, help us find the secret. Amen."
Children, can you say, "Amen," with Teddy and Sally?
Teddy gently fits the key in the lock, and click! The box opens to reveal shiny stickers, a little bell, and a note that says, "For Teddy and Friends—Share and Shine!"
"Wow! Sharing makes my heart happy,"
"Let’s share the stickers and ring the bell together!"
Children, clap your hands for Teddy and Sally!
Teddy hugs Sally and says, "Thank you for helping me. God’s love is always with us."
Let’s all say, "God loves me!" together, and give Teddy a big cheer.
The garden is peaceful, and Teddy knows that kindness and sharing make every day bright.
