Their parents bought them a table-tennis set.
They've been playing ping-pong every day,

Father gave mother a lovely new handbag.
Sue gave her some mats which she wove herself
and Sandy gave her a lamp which he made himself.
Gretel received a scarf
and a pair of gloves from mother and father
and a box of chocolates from Sandy and Sue.
Father received some nice presents too.
He got an electric razor from mother,
some razor blades from Sue,

and some after-shave lotion from Gretel.
Father laughed when he opened his presents.
"Even though they're very useful things,"he said,
"perhats I'll grow a beard!" |
