A little bear sits on a tree stump and cries bitterly. A little fox runs by, sees him, and asks:
Hello, little bear, why are you crying?
Nobody wants to play with me!
The little bear sighed and whimpered.
Why not?
I don't know. I played with the hedgehog and the wolf cub, but then they chased me away!
Offended, the little bear wiped his nose with his paw and looked longingly at his friends, who were playing with pinecones nearby.
Go over and ask to join the game, say a kind word: "Please". You can't force anyone to be friends, you can only ask to join the game, share toys, be kind and caring.
But the little bear only cried louder.
The little fox felt sorry for the little bear, and he decided to make peace between him and his friends. The little fox approached the hedgehog and wolf cub:
Hello, friends! You're playing so well!
Yes, we're having fun together! We toss pinecones to each other, and we can even throw them at a target.
And the little animals cleverly tossed a pinecone each into an old squirrel's hollow.
But why don't you let the little bear play with you? He's so lonely!
He misbehaves, he tramples our pinecones. And he even teases us, right, hedgehog?
Complained the wolf cub.
Yep.
The hedgehog nodded.
Well, forgive him, he won't do it again. The little bear is sorry for everything, he's just afraid to come over and ask for forgiveness. Besides, let's all play together.
No, we won't forgive him, we're fine just the two of us! Right, hedgehog?
Yep.
The little fox threw up his paws:
As you wish, I'm going back to the little bear.
Just then the hedgehog's mother called him home. The hedgehog ran off, and the wolf cub was left alone.
