When Emily isn’t looking, Raggedy Ann leads her toy friends on a mischievous adventure to the pantry, where they create a sticky, sugary mess! This Raggedy Ann story teaches little ones about honesty, consequences, and the importance of asking permission through the adventures of beloved toys coming to life. A wonderful bedtime story for preschoolers.
Once upon a time, in a cozy little room, lived a whole family of toys. There was Raggedy Ann with her red hair, Dazzling Danielle in her sparkly dress, Brave Max, the superhero, and the funny Dutch doll.
They belonged to a sweet girl named Emily, who loved and played with them every day.
One day, the toys came to life when the little girl was away! “Let’s play!” said Hero Max. “I’m hungry!” said Dazzling Danielle.
Raggedy Ann, the clever one, remembered yummy smells from the kitchen. “Follow me!” she said. Letโs find something tasty!โ
The toys pushed and pulled until they opened the pantry door and found yummy treats inside!
Powdered sugar fell on Dazzling Danielle, making her look like a snow fairy. The Indian doll found crackers and honey.
Brave Max fell, trying to reach the gummy bears on the high shelves, but he got up and tried again.
The Dutch doll dipped his fingers in a jam jar. “Yum!” he said. Soon, all the toys were covered in purple goodness.
But uh-oh! They heard the front door open and Emily’s voice calling, “I’m home!โ
“Quick! We need to get back to the playroom!” gasped Raggedy Ann, her button eyes wide with worry.
The toys scrambled, dropping cookies and jam jars. They hurried as fast as their stuffed legs could carry them, leaving a trail of sticky footprints and powdered sugar across the kitchen floor and down the hallway.
They had just collapsed into their usual spots in the cozy room when Emily walked in. She stopped suddenly, noticing something wasn’t right.
“Oh no! You’re sticky with jam!โ said the little girl. “Raggedy Ann, did you take everyone to the pantry?โ she asked, โNaughty dolls!โ
Emily took the dolls outside and gave them a bubble bath. The dolls giggled and splashed, and then she hung them on a clothesline to dry in the sun.
Emily gave them lemonade and tiny cookies. They had a lovely outdoor dinner. The dolls learned that asking for treats is better than making a big mess.
When it was bedtime, the little girl brought them inside, brushed their hair, and put them in clean pajamas. “Good night, my sweet dolls,” she said. She kissed them good night and left the room.
“Let’s be good dolls from now on.โ Raggedy Ann said. The dolls smiled and whispered, “We’ll be good, we promise!” And they meant it.
The dolls snuggled in their beds, sleepy and happy, ready for sweet dreams.
