Four Word Writing Prompt: A Children's Story

Writing stories for young children is a tough assignment.  You have to control your vocabulary in terms of comprehension and avoiding profanity.  You also have to make sure that the topics you address are age appropriate.  It's also appropriate to try and teach something in terms of general morality life lessons or about the world in general.  For today's writing prompt, try to write a story for children using these four words:

teddy bear
closet
toys
asleep

BONUS Prompt:  If you aren't into writing stories for children, incorporate the same four words into a story for adults.  Perhaps, this story could be something in the horror genre.
