If she can feel the pea, the queen will know she’s a true princess!

The Three Little Pigs – Any parent knows that kids love stories. And one of the most popular stories of all time is The Three Little Pigs. The story of three little pigs who build houses out of straw, sticks, and bricks is a classic tale of wisdom versus foolishness. The first two pigs are lazy and build their houses quickly out of straw and sticks. But the third pig is wise and takes his time to build a strong brick house.

When the big bad wolf comes blowing, the first two houses are quickly destroyed. But the third house stands strong and protects the pig inside. The Three Little Pigs is a fun story that kids will love, and it also teaches an important lesson about the importance of being diligent and taking the time to do things right.

Jack and the Beanstalk – Jack and the Beanstalk is a classic fairy tale that has been beloved by children for generations. The story follows Jack, a young boy who lives with his widowed mother in a tiny cottage. When Jack’s mother sends him to market to sell their only cow, he comes home with a handful of beans instead. His mother is so angry that she throws the beans out the window. But overnight, a huge beanstalk grows from the beans, reaching up into the sky.
