What’s Inside This Worksheet? 

📖 Reading Passage – My Favourite Game 
My favourite game is hide and seek. I play it with my cousins in the park near our house. One person closes their eyes and counts to ten. The others hide behind trees, benches, or slides.

I love this game because it makes everyone happy.
