At first, the children were surprised to see a turtle with a glowing shell, but soon they were delighted. Sparkle introduced himself and suggested a game of “Hide and Seek.”

As the game progressed, Sparkle’s shell would glow bright whenever he was near a hiding child, making the game even more fun. The children giggled and laughed, enjoying the magical twist to their favorite game.

After the game, Sparkle showed the children how to make shadow puppets using the glow from his shell. The kids were fascinated and made all sorts of animal shapes with their hands.

As the night grew darker, Sparkle sang a beautiful lullaby that soothed everyone into a peaceful sleep. His shell’s soft glow served as a night light, keeping the night’s darkness at bay.
