❄️🕯 The Little Match Girl

📜 Script 

NARRATOR:
It was a cold, snowy night.
A little girl walked through the streets.
She had no hat, no shoes—only a bundle of matches.

Her toes were red.
Her fingers were cold.

She was hungry… and no one stopped to help.

NARRATOR:
She sat in a corner between two houses.

To stay warm, she lit one match.

FSSSSHH!
The light danced like a star.

NARRATOR:
In the flame, she saw a warm stove.
She reached out—but it disappeared.

She lit another match.
Now she saw a big table with food!

But it was just a dream.

NARRATOR:
She lit one more match—
and saw her grandmother smiling.

👧 GIRL (softly):
“Grandma… please don’t go.”

NARRATOR:
The warm light grew brighter.

The girl felt safe.
She saw stars and soft snow falling.

She smiled.

NARRATOR (ending):
In the morning, people found her still and quiet—
but smiling.

They didn’t see what she saw…
a light full of love.

This story teaches us:
Kindness matters—especially on cold, quiet nights.
