Siapa nih yang masih punya rutinitas membacakan cerita, dongeng atau kisah-kisah menarik lainnya sebagai pengantar tidur anak?
Di rumah, anak-anak terutama Neyna sedang menyukai aktifitas dibacakan cerita pendek tapi dalam bahasa inggris.
Selain sebagai pengantar tidur, cerita pendek dalam bahasa inggris ini juga bisa menambah vocabullary Neyna serta melatih cara membaca kosakata bahasa inggris.

Biasanya 1 cerita akan saya bacakan terlebih dahulu sambil diartikan maknanya. Lalu kemudian bergantian dengan Neyna untuk membacakan cerita lainnya.
Menariknya dengan gaya seperti ini timbul minat serta ketertarikan Neyna dalam membaca short moral stories.

3 Cerita Pendek Favorit Dalam Bahasa Inggris
Di rumah, untuk beberapa buku berbahasa inggris ada hanya saja anak-anak sudah bosan karena sudah ribuan purnama, ratusan hari baca itu terus.
Sampai akhirnya saya menemukan cerita pendek dengan pesan yang bagus plus ceritanya lucu dan akhirnya menjadi favorit Neyna.
Berikut adalah 3 cerita pendek berbahasa inggris yang menarik dan lucu ceritanya :
- The Golden Egg
Once upon a time, a farmer had a goose that laid one golden egg every day. The egg provided enough money for the farmer and his wife to support their daily needs. The farmer and his wife continued to be happy for a long time.
But, one day, the farmer thought to himself, “Why should we take just one egg a day? Why can’t we take them all at once and make a lot of money?” The farmer told his wife his idea, and she foolishly agreed.
Then, the next day, as the goose laid its golden egg, the farmer was quick with a sharp knife. He killed the goose and cut its stomach open, in the hopes of finding all its golden eggs. But, as he opened the stomach, the only thing he found was guts and blood.
The farmer quickly realized his foolish mistake and proceeded to cry over his lost resource. As the days went on, the farmer and his wife became poorer and poorer. How jinxed and how foolish they were.
Cerita telur emas ini, sukses membuat Neyna tertawa terbahak-bahak. Karena pemilihan kata dalam bahasa inggrisnya juga menarik sehingga membuat Neyna tertawa.
Pesan dari cerita ini adalah tidak boleh serakah dan harus berfikir dulu sebelum bertindak.
Selanjutnya cerita pendek bahasa inggris favorit Neyna adalah
- The Farmer And the Well
One day, a farmer was looking for a water source for his farm, when he bought a well from his neighbor. The neighbor, however, was cunning. The next day, as the farmer came to draw water from his well, the neighbor refused to let him take any water.
When the farmer asked why, the neighbor replied, “I sold you the well, not the water,” and walked away. Distraught, the farmer went to the emperor to ask for justice. He explained what had happened.
The emperor called on Birbal, one of his nine, and wisest, courtiers. Birbal proceeded to question the neighbor, “Why don’t you let the farmer take water from the well? You did sell the well to the farmer?”
The neighbor replied, “Birbal, I did sell the well to the farmer but not the water within it. He has no right to draw water from the well.”
Birbal said, “Look, since you sold the well, you have no right to keep the water in the farmer’s well. Either you pay rent to the farmer, or take it out immediately.” Realizing that his scheme had failed, the neighbor apologized and went home.
Cerita ini juga bikin Neyna tertawa, awalnya bingung dulu karena merasa kok bisa jual sumurnya doang wkwkwk.
So, pesan dari cerita pendek ini adalah ga boleh curang karena pasti memberikan dampak yang ga baik ke depannya.
- Elephant And Friends
A lone elephant walked through the forest, looking for friends. She soon saw a monkey and proceeded to ask, ‘Can we be friends, monkey?’
The monkey quickly replied, ‘You are big and can’t swing on trees like I do, so I cannot be your friend.’
Defeated, the elephant continued to search when it stumbled across a rabbit. She proceeded to ask him, ‘Can we be friends, rabbit?’
The rabbit looked at the elephant and replied, “You are too big to fit inside my burrow. You cannot be my friend.”
Then, the elephant continued until she met a frog. She asked, “Will you be my friend, frog?”
The frog replied, “You are too big and heavy; you cannot jump like me. I am sorry, but you can’t be my friend.”
The elephant continued to ask the animals she met on her way, but always received the same reply. The following day, the elephant saw all the forest animals run in fear. She stopped a bear to ask what was happening and was told the tiger was attacking all the small animals.
The elephant wanted to save the other animals, so she went to the tiger and said, “Please, sir, leave my friends alone. Do not eat them.”
The tiger didn’t listen. He merely told the elephant to mind her own business.
Seeing no other way, the elephant kicked the tiger and scared him away. Upon hearing of the brave tale, the other animals agreed, “You are just the right size to be our friend.”
