Once upon a time, in a cozy little town nestled amongst rolling hills, lived a young boy named Timmy. Timmy loved playing more than anything else in the world. He loved building magnificent forts, racing his toy cars, and exploring the woods behind his house. Sometimes, Timmy was so busy playing that he forgot all about eating.

Inside Timmy lived two very important friends, his Heart and his Stomach. Heart was a bubbly, energetic fellow who loved to pump blood all around Timmy's body, delivering energy and keeping him strong. Stomach was a rumbling, grumbling giant who loved to take the food Timmy ate and mash it up into tiny pieces so Heart could easily use it for energy.

One sunny week, Timmy was building the most amazing fort ever! He was so engrossed in his project that he completely forgot to eat breakfast, lunch, and even dinner! Stomach began to rumble loudly. "Timmy," he called, "I'm empty! I need food to grind!" But Timmy was too busy hammering and sawing to hear.

Stomach tried and tried to work, but there was nothing to grind. He felt weak and sluggish. "Oh dear," he sighed, "I can't do my job without food!"

Meanwhile, Heart was working overtime. He was pumping blood like crazy, trying to keep Timmy going, but the blood was getting thinner and thinner. "Stomach," Heart called, "I need some energy! I'm running on empty!" But Stomach couldn't help. He was too weak.

Heart tried his best, but without the nutrients from Stomach, he started to feel tired and heavy. He could barely pump anymore. Timmy, who had been feeling a bit dizzy and wobbly, suddenly collapsed.

Timmy's parents were terrified! They rushed him to the hospital. The doctors checked Timmy and discovered that
his Stomach was empty and his Heart was exhausted. "Timmy hasn't been eating," they said sadly.

The doctors quickly hooked Timmy up to an IV drip, which was like a special drink filled with all the things his body needed. They also gave him special medicine to help his Heart get stronger. Slowly, Timmy's Heart began to beat normally again, and his Stomach started to feel better too.

After a few days in the hospital, Timmy was feeling much better. He learned a very important lesson. He learned that his Heart and Stomach were his best friends, and they needed his help to stay healthy.

From that day on, Timmy never skipped a meal. He always ate his breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and he even started to enjoy eating fruits and vegetables. He knew that by eating healthy foods, he was keeping his Heart strong and his Stomach happy, and that meant he could play and explore all day long!

Moral of the story: Kids should never skip meals. Always eat your fruits and vegetables to keep your bodies strong so that your Heart and Stomach can work properly and keep you healthy and full of energy!
