故事
苏珊想要出去玩，可今天实在是太冷了。妈妈第三次拒绝了她。苏珊应该怎么办呢？她感到非常无聊，真的很想玩个痛快！也许她可以邀请朋友特雷西来家里玩。特雷西的妈妈和她的妈妈一样，总是待在家里，苏珊觉得这是个好主意，特别是她不能出门的时候。
苏珊的妈妈跟特雷西的妈妈聊了聊，对方说他们会在收拾好特雷西的房间后过来。苏珊想着特雷西来她家玩打扮、用橡皮泥做小物品、一起喝下午茶，这些会有多么有趣。她们一定会玩得很开心。
终于，特雷西来了。苏珊打开门让朋友进屋，她们立刻跑进了苏珊的房间，把妈妈们留在客厅。两个小女孩非常开心地挑选着服装，假装在时装秀。她们穿上漂亮的礼服、闪亮的鞋子，还戴上像公主一样的皇冠。然后，她们走到走廊上给妈妈们展示。
当她们回去换另一套衣服时，特雷西注意到苏珊的头发在摘下皇冠时变得有些乱了。特雷西说：“苏珊，我觉得你的头发好难看！你应该梳一下头发。”
苏珊不知道特雷西为什么说这样刻薄的话，因为妈妈早上才给她梳过头发。她只是简单地回答道：“我觉得我的头发很好看，我们去玩别的吧。”
但特雷西没停止谈论苏珊的头发。相反，她继续对苏珊说刻薄的话。苏珊很伤心，她的朋友竟然这样说她，于是跑到妈妈那里，哭着靠在妈妈的肩上。
“怎么了，亲爱的？你为什么哭？”苏珊的妈妈问道。
“特雷西说我的头发很难看，还说看起来像是从来没梳过。她还说我的头发有股味道。”苏珊抽泣着说道。
特雷西的妈妈直视着特雷西，问她是否真的对朋友说了这些刻薄的话。特雷西承认了，但她说这些都是事实。
你看，特雷西在用不好的方式说话。她没有对朋友说友好的话，结果伤害了苏珊的感情。苏珊的头发确实有点乱，因为摘下皇冠时弄乱了，但她的头发并不难看，也没有味道，只是稍微有点乱而已。特雷西需要学习，她应该用友好的方式说话。她应该学会在说话时要小心，以免伤害别人的感情。
特雷西和她的妈妈进行了谈话。过了一会儿，她回到苏珊身边，为自己说了那些刻薄的话道歉。她决定说友好的话，她们也得以继续玩耍。那天特雷西学到了宝贵的一课：她学会了对朋友说话时要小心，不要用言语伤害别人。

Oh, Be Careful Little Tongue
A young girl learns to be careful with what she says, so her friends won't be hurt by her words. For storybook version Click here
TOPICS:Caring, Friendship, Kindness, Pleasing God DURATION:Approximately 15 minutesSusan wanted to go outside to play, but it was a very cold day. Her mommy said no for the third time. What was Susan supposed to do? She was so bored and really wanted to have fun! Maybe she could invite her friend Tracy to come over and play. Tracy’s mommy always stayed at home just like her mommy, so she thought this would be a great idea, especially since she couldn’t go outside. |
Susan’s mommy talked to Tracy’s mommy, who said they would be coming over as soon as they finished cleaning Tracy’s room. Susan thought about how exciting it would be to have Tracy come over and play dress up, make things with playdough, and have a tea party. They would have so much fun together.
Finally, it was time for Tracy to arrive. Susan opened the door to let her friend in the house and they ran off to her bedroom, leaving the mommies by themselves. The two little girls had so much fun picking out costumes and pretending they were in a fashion show. They dressed up with beautiful gowns, sparkly shoes, and tiaras fit for princesses. Then they paraded down the hall to show their mommies.
When they were going back to choose another outfit, Tracy noticed that Susan’s hair got really messy when she took off her tiara. Tracy said, “Susan, I think your hair looks very ugly! You should brush it or something.”
Susan didn’t know why Tracy was telling her such a mean thing, because her mommy had just brushed her hair that morning. She simply said, “I think my hair looks fine, let’s play something else now.”
Tracy wasn’t ready to stop talking about Susan’s hair. Instead, she continued to say mean things to her. Susan was very sad that her friend would be talking like that so she ran to her mommy and started crying on her shoulder.
“What is wrong dear? Why are you crying?” asked Susan’s mommy.
“Tracy says my hair is ugly, and that it looks like I never brush it. She said that she thinks my hair is stinky,” sobbed Susan.
Tracy’s mommy looked right at Tracy and asked her if it was true that she said such mean things to her friend. Tracy said she did, but that it was all true.
You see, Tracy was using her words in a bad way. She was not saying nice things to her friend and she ended up hurting Susan’s feelings. Susan’s hair was a bit messy because it got messed up when she took off the tiara, but her hair was not ugly or stinky. It was just a little messy. Tracy needed to learn that in order to keep friends, she must use her words in a nice way. She must learn that we have to be careful how we say things so we don’t hurt anyone’s feelings.
Tracy had a talk with her mommy. After a short time, she came back to Susan and said she was sorry for saying such mean things. She decided to say something nice instead, and they were able to continue playing. Tracy learned a valuable lesson that day. She learned to be careful what she says to her friends, so she will not hurt them with her words.
