The giant in this story has a magic harp that can sing and a magic hen that lays golden eggs! 

Imagine that some of the things in your house are magic. Tell us all about them. For example:

  • My slippers - when I wear my magic slippers I can jump as high as my house.
  • My red giraffe - when I go to sleep with red giraffe I have nice dreams. 
  • My school bag - if my school bag is heavy it grows wings and can fly to school.
