Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to read a fun story called “Mokomaki.” It’s about some cute little creatures called Mokomaki who are on a mission to find a missing little fox. Are you ready to help them? Let’s go!
The Mokomaki have sharp eyes and love to travel far and wide. They need your help on their journey to find the missing little fox. Let’s see what adventures await!
Oh no! Someone lost an egg. Can you help find which nest it belongs to? And look, there’s a tiny giraffe that needs to be found too. Let’s count together: one, two, three. Which one is the smallest?
Next, we need to find a little reindeer who is feeling very hungry. Yum, look at all the pies! Do you think the reindeer will find something to eat? Let’s see who is the hungriest!
Oh dear, a little lion has fallen asleep. Can you spot him among all the whiskers? Which lion has the longest whiskers? Let’s find the sleepy one!
Now, a little zebra has lost her stripes. Can you help find them? Look at all the stripes and see if you can tell them apart. Which one is missing stripes?
There’s a little bluebird who blends in with all the colors. Can you name the colors you see? Let’s find the bluebird together!
Oh no, a little tiger is missing too! Tigers have stripes, but some have spots. Can you find the one that looks like the mama tiger?
Look, there are monkey twins who have tied their tails in knots. Can you find them among all the monkeys? Let’s make sure everyone has a buddy!
Finally, let’s not forget about the little fox. Could he be hiding somewhere? Look closely, and maybe you’ll spot him. Hooray, there he is! Let’s take him back to his mommy.
And that’s the end of our story, “Mokomaki.” Thank you for helping find all the missing animals. We hope you had fun! If you enjoyed the story, come back for more adventures. Bye for now!
Animal Detective Game: Let’s play a game where you become animal detectives! Look around your home or classroom and find objects or toys that remind you of the animals in the story. Can you find something that looks like a fox, a giraffe, or a zebra? Share what you found with your friends and explain why it reminds you of that animal.
Create Your Own Mokomaki Adventure: Use your imagination to draw or craft your own Mokomaki creature. Give it a special name and think about what adventure it might go on. What animal would it help find? Share your creation and story with the class. Maybe your Mokomaki can help find a missing toy or a hidden snack!
Color and Pattern Hunt: Go on a color and pattern hunt around your classroom or home. Can you find stripes like the zebra or spots like the tiger? How many different colors can you see, just like the blending bluebird? Make a list or draw pictures of the patterns and colors you discover. Share your findings with your friends and see who found the most!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:

Hi everyone! Welcome to Story Time. Today, we have a very cute book called “Mokomaki.” Can you help the Mokomaki find my little fox? She is missing! Let’s look.
Mokomaki, a pop! No way! Should we ask Mommy, or she’ll be fine?
[Applause]
Mokomaki by Satu Continent. Why are you all upset? Let’s investigate! I’m going to find him first. Come on, fellas! Little fox has gone missing.
Meet the Mokomaki! This is the home of Mokomaki. The Mokomaki have sharp little eyes and travel far and wide. Will you help them on their journey?
Let’s find out! I lost an egg. I wonder which nest it belongs to.
Hi Mokomaki, can you find my little giraffe? He’s the tiniest one of all. What’s this about? Let’s help! Which one is the smallest? Shall we count them? One, two, three. Which one’s the smallest?
This way, Mokomaki! Do you see my little reindeer? He was feeling hungry. Yum! Look at all these pies. Are they for everyone?
Excuse me, reindeer, are there any worms around? I’m getting hungry too. Shh! Don’t make a peep. Don’t worry, there’s a pie for you too, Mokomaki.
So, which one’s the hungriest one, you think?
Oh help me, Mokomaki! I can’t find my little lion. He’s fallen fast asleep. Are these foxes? Look at all the different whiskers! Which lion has the longest? So, which one has the longest whiskers, and which one is falling asleep?
Have you seen my babies? There are ten of them! Hey, I see a blue bird this way. Hey, quit it! Is he snoring? Where is it? Where’s the sleeping one? Oh, there he is! This guy has the longest whiskers, right?
Deary me! Mokomaki, can you find my little zebra? She lost her stripes. Someone else is lost! Look at all the stripes. How will we tell them apart?
We can’t forget the missing fox. Where is my mommy? These are mine! Have you seen my brothers? They look like me. So, which one has lost stripes?
There you go! Mokomaki, can you find my little bluebird? She really blends in. This is getting harder! Look at all the colors. Can you name them all?
It’s not me! I spell fish.
[Applause]
Can you find my little tiger? I can’t see her anywhere, Mokomaki. Tigers have stripes. Which one looks like the mama tiger? But these guys have spots. Can you find a match for everyone?
There are a lot of you too! One egg is gone. Oh, we saw it earlier. Monkey! My little monkey twins are missing. Mokomaki, do you see them? They tied their tails in knots. Look sharp, everyone!
Would the little fox be here? Oh, so many pairs of monkeys! Does everyone have a buddy?
Let’s go! Who are you? Where’s your tail? Where are the twins? Aha! Found them! My baby bear is safe with me, but little fox is missing.
Don’t give up, Mokomaki! Oh good, this one’s okay. Maybe the little fox is this way. Mokomaki, I think I see him!
Hooray! Are you the little fox? Don’t worry, little fella. We’ll take you to your mother. This way!
I hope Mommy hasn’t missed us.
Whoa!
