Story Summary
Enes was a little boy with straight black hair and a curious mind. He loved playing games on his tablet. He would spend hours tapping and swiping, lost in the digital world. His parents often told him to take a break, but Enes was always eager to return to his screen.
One sunny afternoon, Enes's mother encouraged him to play outside. He reluctantly agreed and wandered into the garden. He found a quiet spot under a large oak tree. As he sat there, he noticed something moving slowly in the grass.
It was a turtle! But this wasn't just any turtle; this one had kind eyes and a wise expression. Enes had never seen a turtle like this before. He cautiously approached the turtle, his curiosity piqued.
"Hello there, little one," the turtle said in a gentle voice. Enes was surprised; he had never heard a turtle talk! "My name is Enes," he replied, still a bit hesitant. "It's a pleasure, Enes. I am Tim," the turtle responded with a nod.
Tim noticed Enes's downcast expression. "You seem a little sad, Enes. What troubles you?" he asked. Enes sighed. "I just want to play on my tablet, but my parents say I spend too much time on it," he explained.
Tim listened patiently. "There's nothing wrong with enjoying your tablet, Enes," he said. "But there are so many other wonderful things to discover in the world around you. Spending time in different ways can be very rewarding."
Tim suggested they explore the garden together. Enes was skeptical at first, but he decided to give it a try. They walked slowly through the grass, and Tim pointed out different plants and insects. Enes was amazed by how much he had never noticed before.
Tim showed Enes how to identify different types of leaves and explained how bees help flowers grow. Enes was fascinated. He started asking questions, and Tim patiently answered each one. He realized learning could be fun.
They continued their exploration, discovering a family of ladybugs and a busy ant colony. Enes realized that the world outside his tablet was full of exciting things to see and learn. He felt more alive and engaged than he had in a long time.
As the sun began to set, Enes and Tim sat down under the oak tree. Enes felt a sense of contentment he hadn't experienced while playing on his tablet. He realized that spending quality time exploring and learning was much more fulfilling.
"Thank you, Tim," Enes said. "I learned so much today. I still like my tablet, but I know now that there are other things that make me happy too." Tim smiled. "Remember, Enes, balance is the key to a happy life."
From that day on, Enes made sure to balance his screen time with outdoor adventures, reading books, and spending time with his family. He felt better, learned more, and realized that the world had so much to offer beyond the screen. Enes realized that spending time wisely could bring much joy.
