Morning Surprises

Dabble Dino waddled into Sunberry Park, his green spiky scales catching the morning light. The playground sparkled under candy-blue skies like always.

"Good morning, swings!" Dabble called cheerfully to his favorite spot.

But something felt different today. The air seemed too quiet, too still. Dabble's wide feet carried him closer to the swing set, his long tail swishing with curiosity behind him.

The Quiet Morning

Dabble reached the swings and listened carefully. Usually they hummed cheerful melodies, but today... silence.

"Hello, swings?" Dabble whispered, giving one a gentle push. It swayed quietly back and forth.

Just then, Mrs. Buttercup the park keeper appeared with her watering can. "Oh my! The swings need their daily song practice," she announced. "Dabble, please make them sing 'la-la-la' for ten minutes!"

Dabble blinked his big eyes. He opened his mouth wide and began singing loudly, "LA-LA-LA!" at the swings, thinking that's exactly what Mrs. Buttercup meant.
