Hide and sleep
Last week Mum and Dad took us to the
furniture shop. They wanted to buy a new sofa
because our old one wasn't very comfortable.
My brother and I weren't very happy because
we don't really like shopping, but then Mum
said that Grandpa wanted to come too. We
liked that idea because Grandpa is cool!
The shop was really big. Mum and Dad
left us with Grandpa and went to look at
furniture. Grandpa had a brilliant idea. 'This
shop is very big,' he said, 'so let's have a game
of hide and seek. We were really excited
because there were so many places to hide.
My brother hid first and after ten minutes
I found him behind a cupboard. Then it was
my turn, but Grandpa found me very quickly.
Finally, it was Grandpa's turn. We closed
our eyes and counted to 100. 'Coming!' we
shouted. We looked and we looked, but we
couldn't find Grandpa anywhere. After half
an hour, Mum and Dad came back. 'Where's
Grandpa?' they asked. Now all the family
started to look for him. When we were in
the part of the shop where they had beds,
we heard a funny noise. 'Shhh!' said Dad.
'Someone is snoring. We looked across the
shop and there on the most comfortable bed
was Grandpa - asleep!
