Lost in the Forest
Stories with Esther & Poppy for GIGI Kids
“It’s getting dark,” said Kate, looking up at the sky. “It’ll be night soon. Should we try to come back the way we came?” “I don’t think so,” said Naomi. “We might somehow end up deeper in the forest. I think we’d better just sit here and hope someone comes to look for us.” The girls slowly moved over to the tree stump and dropped their pinecones and berries. The castle didn’t seem so important anymore. Suddenly, there was a snap of twigs ahead of them. “What-what was that?” Kate stammered. “I don’t know,” Naomi whispered. Now, her heart was beating really...

Today we have a story that is inspired by the parables of Jesus - you can find it in your Bibles in Matthew 13:45-46
“My pearl necklace!” Sophia cried. “I can’t find it! It was in my dress-up box this morning, and now it’s just NOT!”
“Take a deep breath,” said Mum, “and let’s have a look.”
She led the way back down the hall, with a sniffly Sophia following her.
“Now,” said Mum, when they were back in Sophia’s room. “Where did you last have it?”
Sophia thought hard.
“Well, I was pretending that I was a big lion this morning, and the couch was my den. Remember, I pulled all the cushions off the couch to make my den cozy?”
“I remember,” Mum said dryly. “What about after that?”
“After you made me put my den away, I was an eagle soaring through the sky! And I was jumping off the table, only you told me to stop that too, so then, I was a teensy little worm. Or a caterpillar. I don’t really remember, but I was wriggling my way under the piano and—”
Sophia gasped.
What happened next? To find out, find a comfortable spot and listen to the episode.
