The Rainy Day Plan

Lexile: 500 | Grade: 3

Passage

Emma and her little brother, Noah, were ready for a fun day at the park. They packed snacks, a ball, and a kite.

But just as they were putting on their shoes, dark clouds rolled in. It started to rain—hard. Emma sighed. 'Now what are we going to do?'

Noah looked out the window. 'We could still have fun inside!' he said.

Emma thought for a moment. 'Let’s make our own park in the living room!'

They spread out a big blanket as a picnic spot. They used pillows to make a slide and chairs to build a tunnel. They even flew the kite by running in circles and pretending.

By the end of the day, both kids were laughing and tired. 'That was even better than the real park!' Noah said.

Emma smiled. 'Sometimes rainy days bring the best adventures.'
