Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She (play) with her toys every day after school. One day, while she (play) with her dolls, her mom (come) into the room and said, “Lily, we (plan) a surprise for you! We (book) a trip to the zoo tomorrow!”

Lily (jump) up and down with excitement. She (love) going to the zoo. The next day, they (arrive) at the zoo early in the morning. They (see) all kinds of animals, like lions, tigers, and bears. Lily (take) lots of pictures with her camera.

As they (walk) around the zoo, they (hear) a loud noise. They (look) up and saw a group of monkeys (swing) from tree to tree. Lily (watch) them for a while, fascinated by their acrobatics.

Later that day, they (stop) at the gift shop and Lily (buy) a stuffed elephant to remember her fun day at the zoo. When they (get) home, Lily (tell) her dad all about the animals she (see) and the fun she (have) at the zoo.

From that day on, Lily (remember) her trip to the zoo as one of the best days of her life.
