In a lush, green forest, there lived three rabbit siblings. Although they shared the same cozy burrow, they lived in their own separate worlds. The eldest, Mithun, spent all his time listening to a crackling old radio. The middle rabbit, Somu, was always busy playing with a small wooden stick, and the youngest, Chitti, was constantly mesmerized by a shiny, smooth stone she found in the meadow.

Their father, a wise old rabbit, watched them with a heavy heart. They were losing the joy of being together and the beauty of the forest. He knew he had to teach them a lesson about responsibility and togetherness.

One evening, the father called them all together. "Listen, my dear children," he said seriously. "From tomorrow, we will play a new game. Each of you will take a small wooden tablet. Every evening, you must record how much time you spent doing something useful and how much time you spent idling. Whoever spends too much time being idle will have to move to a different part of the forest."

The rabbits were terrified. They didn't want to leave their warm home. The next morning, they all carried their tablets. However, instead of working, they began to blame each other. Mithun grumbled, "I only listen to the radio because Somu is always making noise with his stick!" Somu argued, "I play because Mithun is too boring, and Chitti is always staring at that stone!" Chitti cried, "My brothers are the ones wasting time!"

Their father overheard this. "Blaming others will not change your tablets," he said firmly. "If you spend your energy pointing fingers instead of working, you will all fail the test."

That moment, a realization hit them. They understood that pointing out others' mistakes didn't make them better. They decided to stop the blame game. Mithun began helping the older rabbits gather carrots. Somu practiced hopping over new obstacles to become a faster runner. Chitti started learning which berries were safe to eat.

Slowly, their tablets began to show more 'useful time' and less 'idle time.' They realized that by improving themselves, they became a much happier family. They no longer looked at what others were doing wrong, but focused on what they could do right.
