Pinocchio lived in the grand Toy Kingdom, where the shelves were piled high with colourful blocks and bouncy balls. Every night, when the moon peeked in, all the toys would magically wake up! Pinocchio, with his bright wooden eyes and painted smile, was the most curious toy of all.

"What's over there?" he'd often wonder, as he click-clacked his little wooden feet across the polished floor. He loved exploring every nook and cranny, asking questions about everything he saw, always ready for a new adventure.

One sparkly night, while exploring the tallest shelf, Pinocchio spotted a tiny, shiny music box he'd never seen before. "Click-clack, whir-pop!" went his feet as he scurried closer. He was so curious to see inside, he reached out and, *oopsie!* The little music box tumbled down!

It didn't break, but its tiny winding key popped right off and rolled under a big, fluffy teddy bear. Pinocchio felt a little flutter of worry in his tummy. He knew he shouldn't have touched it without asking.

"Oh dear," Pinocchio whispered, trying to push the key back in. But it wouldn't fit! His curious fingers tried poking it, jiggling it, even tapping it gently, but the music box remained silent.

He tried to tell himself it wasn't a big deal, but a tiny voice inside said, "Someone will miss this music." He felt a big knot of worry tightening in his chest. His usual happy click-clack was now a quiet, nervous shuffle.

Just then, Wise Old Bear, with his kind, knowing eyes, shuffled past. He noticed Pinocchio looking sad. "What's the matter, little one?" Wise Old Bear asked gently.

Pinocchio remembered how important it was to be honest. Taking a deep breath, he said, "I was curious about the music box, and I accidentally made the key pop off." He showed Wise Old Bear the silent box and the runaway key.

Wise Old Bear smiled kindly. "Thank you for being honest, Pinocchio. That's a brave thing to do." He carefully picked up the tiny key.

"Sometimes, curiosity can lead to little accidents, but honesty always helps fix them." With a gentle twist, Wise Old Bear popped the key back into place. *Tinkle-tinkle-tum!* The music box played a sweet, happy tune.
