Once upon a time, in a small village in India, there lived a happy family. The family consisted of a mother, a father, and their two children, Raj and Maya. They all wore colorful clothes and lived in a cozy home made of mud and straw.

Every morning, the family woke up early and greeted the sun by practicing yoga. They would stretch their bodies and focus on their breathing. After that, they would eat a delicious breakfast of chapati and curry. Then, Raj and Maya would go to school.
