It was a scorching summer day.
All the hardworking ants were busy arranging grains in their little home. One ant was returning home, carrying a grain in its mouth. On its way, it found a big sugar crystal.
The ant tried to carry the sugar crystal alone, but it was too big. So she ran back home and told the other ants,
“Come with me! I’ve found a big sugar crystal. Let’s take it home together!”
The ants understood the situation and rushed with her. They began to push the sugar crystal together.
Slowly, the sugar crystal began to move. The ants were pushing with all their might to bring it home. In just a little while, they reached the entrance of their home.
But how could they take the big sugar crystal inside their tiny home? The crystal was huge, and the entrance was small. It was impossible to fit it in.
Other ants came out to help.
Seeing the big sugar crystal, all the ants were very happy and started talking excitedly.
They had worked hard for several days and now they had found a reward! But now, how would they get it inside?
The ants gathered to find a solution.
“What should we do now?”
Then, a small ant came forward and said,
“We brought this crystal here to eat it, right? Then let’s break it into pieces and take it inside little by little.”
Every ant liked the idea.
The tiny entrance was now filled with busy ants, breaking pieces from the sugar crystal and taking them inside one by one.
Soon, the big sugar crystal began to shrink.
By evening, it had turned small enough.
The remaining ants lifted it together and pushed it into their home.
