Too Many Cooks Spoil the Broth 🍲👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

Welcome to another whimsical adventure from By Kids For Kids Story Time! 🎧✨ This is part of our Playful Proverbs series, where we take famous sayings and turn them into fun, creative stories.

Well, let’s find out together in this funny and cautionary tale about teamwork, and why sometimes, too much help can lead to disaster! 🚨🍲



The Story: A Big Cooking Fiasco 🍵

Once upon a time, a man sat down at a restaurant and asked for something very special. He didn’t just want any broth – he wanted broth made by ten cooks! 🤯

The waiter warned him: “Too many cooks might ruin it,” but the man insisted, thinking the more cooks, the better! 🤔👨‍🍳👩‍🍳


So, into the kitchen the waiter went, calling all the chefs to work their magic. But what happened next? Well, each cook added their own strange ingredient! 🥕🍫🍿 One threw in chocolate, another added popcorn, and someone even put in orange juice! 🍊😱 It turned into a wild cooking mess! When the man finally tasted the soup, it was so bad that he ran around the restaurant yelling like a Yeti! 🥴❌

The lesson? Sometimes too much help can spoil things, especially when everyone’s doing their own thing!
