Once upon a time, in a dense wood, three bears resided together in a cozy little house. These bears were a family: Daddy Bear, Mama Bear, and their adorable cub, Baby Bear.
One fine morning, after preparing a steaming bowl of porridge for their breakfast, the bear family decided to take a leisurely walk while their porridge cooled down. Little did they know that their lives were about to intersect with that of a curious visitor.
As they strolled outside, a little girl named Goldilocks happened upon their humble abode. The door was ajar, and the aroma of freshly cooked porridge wafted through the air. Goldilocks, driven by her inquisitive nature, stepped inside.
She found three bowls of porridge on the table: one large, one medium, and one small. Without hesitation, she tasted each one. The first bowl was too hot, the second too cold, but the third bowl—the one meant for Baby Bear—was just right. Goldilocks devoured it hungrily.
Next, she noticed three chairs. The first chair was too big, the second too small, but the third chair—the one meant for Baby Bear—was just right. She sat down and rocked back and forth, accidentally breaking the chair into pieces.
Feeling tired, Goldilocks climbed the stairs to find three beds. The first bed was too hard, the second too soft, but the third bed—the one meant for Baby Bear—was just right. She nestled in and fell asleep.
Meanwhile, the bear family returned home. Daddy Bear growled, “Someone’s been eating my porridge!” Mama Bear exclaimed, “And someone’s been eating my porridge too!” Baby Bear, with tears in his eyes, said, “Someone ate all my porridge!”
They inspected the chairs and beds, discovering the same pattern. Daddy Bear roared, “Someone’s been sitting in my chair!” Mama Bear wailed, “And someone’s been sitting in my chair too!” Baby Bear whimpered, “Someone broke my chair!”
Finally, they reached the bedroom. Daddy Bear grumbled, “Someone’s been sleeping in my bed!” Mama Bear sighed, “And someone’s been sleeping in my bed too!” But when Baby Bear saw Goldilocks curled up in his bed, he cried, “Someone’s still sleeping in my bed!”
Goldilocks woke up, startled by the bear family’s presence. She fled down the stairs, out the door, and into the woods, never to return. The bears forgave her, understanding that curiosity had led her astray.
