The Adventures of Maria Helena
Join Maria Helena, a curious toddler, on her beach adventure as she faces a puzzling problem and overcomes various obstacles, learning the value of courage along the way.
One sunny morning, Maria Helena, in her purple princess dress, went to the beach with her mommy and daddy. She loved the beach, but today something was different. The waves seemed too big, and she was scared to go near them. " - Daddy, why are the waves so big today? Maria Helena asked." Lucas explained that sometimes the ocean is just a bit wilder, but Maria Helena felt unsure. The big, roaring waves seemed like a giant wall, stopping her from playing in the sand.
Maria Helena wanted to play with her toy boat in the shallow water, but the waves were too strong. She tried to put the boat down, but it kept getting swept away. " - Why won't the boat stay? Maria Helena asked, with a frown." Lucas tried to help, but the waves pushed the boat back every time. The ocean seemed to be saying 'not today', and Maria Helena felt a little defeated. Her curiosity about the beach was turning into frustration.
Maria Helena decided to build a sandcastle instead, but the wind kept blowing the sand away. " - Mommy, I can't make my castle! Maria Helena exclaimed, a bit upset." Kryssia encouraged her to try again, but the wind was relentless. Sand flew everywhere, covering Maria Helena's face and making her giggle despite her frustration. She tried and tried, but her castle never stood tall. The beach was full of challenges today.
At last, Maria Helena sat down, feeling a bit tired from all the trying. " - I can't do it, Daddy. The waves and the wind are too strong, Maria Helena sighed." Lucas gave her a comforting hug and told her it was okay to rest. Maria Helena wondered if she should just give up and play another day. But deep inside, she still hoped to conquer the beach. Her little heart didn't want to give up just yet.
Just then, a friendly seagull landed near Maria Helena, chirping happily. " - Hello, birdie! Maria Helena greeted, her eyes lighting up." The seagull seemed fearless of the waves and the wind. Watching it gave Maria Helena an idea—she could be brave too! " - I want to be like the birdie, she decided aloud." With courage in her heart, Maria Helena stood up, ready to face the waves again.
Maria Helena returned to the water's edge with her toy boat, feeling braver than before. " - I can do this, she whispered to herself." The waves were still strong, but Maria Helena wasn't afraid. She placed her boat in the water and watched as it bobbed up and down with the waves. " - Look, Daddy! It's sailing! Maria Helena cheered." She realized that sometimes, with a little courage, the waves can be fun, not scary.
