Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, little dreamers. I'm Sarah, and to day's magical tale
is called the Old Man and his Sons. Are you ready?
Let's begin. Once upon a time there was an old
man who lived in a cozy little village with his sons.
These sons were always quarreling and arguing about everything from

(00:22):
who got the biggest piece of bread to who should
do the chores. The old man loved his sons dearly,
but he was worried about how they fought all the time.
One day, the old man had an idea. He called
all his sons to gather around him and handed each

(00:43):
of them a single stick. He then said, I want
each of you to break your stick in half. The
sons thought this was a strange request, but they went
ahead and snapped their sticks easily. That was simple. The
old man said with a smile. Now I want you
to take this bundle of sticks and try to break it.

(01:07):
He handed them a bundle of sticks tied together. The
suns tried with all their might. They grunted and groaned,
but no matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't
break the bundle. The old man chuckled softly as he
watched his son struggle. Do you see? He said, When

(01:29):
the sticks are alone, they are easy to break, but
when they are tied together, they become strong and cannot
be broken. The sons looked at each other and nodded
in understanding. The old man continued, just like these sticks,
if you stay united and work together, no one can

(01:50):
break you. But if you keep fighting and stay apart,
it will be easy for problems to come between you
from them. At day on, the sons remembered their father's lesson.
They began to co operate and help each other, and
their home was filled with laughter and joy instead of quarrels.

(02:14):
And so the old man's wisdom taught his sons the
importance of staying together and supporting one another, showing them
that there is great strength in unity. And that's the
end of to day's tale, my little adventurers. I hope
you enjoyed the story. If you did, be sure to
