In the early stages of writing children are often confused on usage of similes, idioms; proverbs. As they write, these are expected to be included to highlight their skills and proficiency.
Often texts and stories take creative turns with the usage of proverbs.
I've created short texts and sentences using proverbs, idioms and similes. I hope it's helpful.
When Sam's mother went to the market, she assigned her son to keep an eye on his younger sister, Sara. Sam is a responsible boy. He was exactly like his grandfather in looks and character. We can say, he's a chip off the old block.
Sara was different. She was mischievous. Once their mother left, she insisted to go out to play. Sam put his foot down and did not allow her to go as it was going to rain. Clouds as dark as coal were fast gathering and a heavy storm was threatening to fall.
Sam gave her some books to read and he too settled with his favorite novel. Suddenly, something caught his eye. He noticed Sara was not in her place.
Oh! Why is Sara such a thorn in the flesh, he thought aloud.
He looked high and low for her in the house. She was nowhere to be found. She seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
He rushed out into the garden. He found her in the midst of some flowers. She was trying to pluck some flowers which were as colourful as the parrot.
He gave her a piece of his mind and brought her into the house. She didn't seem to turn a hair. He decided to draw the line and told her strictly that she's not allowed to go out at all. To be on the safer side he locked up the gates and hung the keys high up.
Sara was in tears and later began to smile when Sam gave her a hot chocolate drink as a treat. After all blood is always thicker than water.
