Early in the morning, the soft sounds of tiny quacks filled the yard as the new ducklings waddled around their small pen. CUTIS and the baby monkey rushed outside, their eyes sparkling with excitement. Today, Dad was going to show them how to care for the little ducklings, and they could hardly wait to help.
Dad gently explained how important it was to keep the ducklings warm, clean, and well fed. CUTIS listened carefully, nodding seriously, while the baby monkey clapped her hands in delight. Their first task was to prepare fresh water and soft feed. CUTIS carefully carried a small bowl, trying not to spill a single drop, while the baby monkey proudly held the bag of feed, even though it was almost as big as she was.
Together, they slowly poured the food into the tray, watching happily as the ducklings rushed over, pecking eagerly. Their tiny feet splashed in the shallow water, sending droplets into the air. The baby monkey giggled at the funny sight, while CUTIS gently reminded her to stay quiet so the ducklings would not get scared.
Next, Dad showed them how to clean the pen. CUTIS used a small broom to sweep away dirt, and the baby monkey followed behind, wiping the floor with a cloth. Though their movements were clumsy, their determination was strong. Each time they made a mistake, they laughed and tried again, learning the value of patience and teamwork.
After the cleaning was done, they carefully placed fresh straw to make the pen warm and comfortable. CUTIS softly picked up one duckling, letting it rest in his hands for a moment before returning it safely. The baby monkey gently patted another, whispering sweet words as if talking to a tiny friend.
Dad watched them with proud eyes, touched by their kindness and responsibility. When the work was finished, the family sat together, enjoying the peaceful scene of healthy, happy ducklings. CUTIS and the baby monkey felt proud, knowing they had helped make a difference.
That simple morning turned into a beautiful memory. Through caring for the ducklings, they learned compassion, teamwork, and love — lessons that would stay with them as they grew, reminding them always to be gentle with every living creature.
