Hey there! Guess what? There’s a big flood of water coming our way! It’s because a volcano under the ice is about to melt all that ice. When the ice melts, the water will flow into the valley where I’m standing, and the reindeer are munching on grass.
We need to move the reindeer to a safe place before the flood arrives. But wait, there’s another herd of reindeer in the valley too! How can we move both herds at the same time?
Don’t worry! We have a plan. I’ll take one herd to safety, and my friends Dashi and Peso will help with the other herd. Let’s get started!
We activated the Octoray launch to help us move quickly. “Attention, reindeer herd! Time to move to the other side of the mountain. Let’s go!”
We were almost there, but the floodwaters were moving fast. “Attention, reindeer! Don’t be afraid. I’m Peso, and that’s Dashi up in the Octoray. There’s hot lava and a flood coming your way!”
The reindeer made it safely to the other side of the mountain. “Phew! We should be safe now,” said Peso. “It’s nice to see you again, Paani!”
“You too, Peso! Is everyone safe?” asked Paani. “Yes, but wait, where’s Stefan?”
Stefan was missing! “Stefan! Oh, there you are! You’ve got to see this. It looks so cool!”
But then, “Oh no, my leg!” cried Stefan. Peso tried to help with the Octo-Grabber, but he couldn’t get close enough. “I’m going in!”
Peso and his friends rushed to help Stefan. “Grab on! Pull! Pull!” they shouted.
“Stefan!” called his dad. “Oh, thank goodness you’re all right. Look! The lava is about to pour in!”
And just like that, they all made it to safety. What an adventure!
Did you know that volcanoes can be found under ice? When they erupt, they can melt the ice and cause floods. It’s important to move to higher ground to stay safe. Remember, teamwork can help solve big problems, just like how Peso, Dashi, and Paani worked together to save the reindeer!
Build a Mini Volcano: Create a simple model of a volcano using baking soda, vinegar, and a small container. Watch how the “lava” flows out when you mix them. Discuss how real volcanoes can melt ice and cause floods. Ask yourself, “What happens when the ice melts? Where does the water go?”
Reindeer Rescue Game: Set up a small obstacle course in your backyard or living room. Pretend to be Peso or Dashi and guide toy reindeer (or any small toys) to safety. Imagine the obstacles are floodwaters or lava. Think about how teamwork helps in moving the reindeer quickly and safely.
Observe and Report: Next time it rains, observe how water flows in your yard or street. Where does the water go? Does it form puddles or streams? Draw a picture of what you see and think about how it might be similar to a flood caused by melting ice from a volcano.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Oh, boy!
We’re in for a big flood of water!
What water, matey? That volcano is under the ice, and you know what that means.
All that water is going to flow into this valley and fill it up. Right where I’m standing and these reindeer are munching.
Okay, thanks for the warning. I gotta get these reindeer out of here before the flood waters hit.
Paani, hold on. Magnus, there’s a big flood on the way. We’ve got to get you and your herd to safety.
Okay, just one problem. There’s another herd of reindeer in this valley, too. How am I going to round up two herds of reindeer at the same time?
Paani, you don’t have to do this on your own. You get one herd to safety, and Dashi and Peso will help the other. Sound like a plan?
Yes, but hurry!
– Ready?
– Ready!
Activating Octoray launch!
Attention, reindeer herd! Time to move out to the other side of the mountain. Let’s go!
We’re almost there. Looks like the floodwaters are moving fast.
Reindeer herd below. What’s that? Look. Look. What is it?
Attention, reindeer! Don’t be afraid. Excuse me. I’m Peso and that’s Dashi up in the Octoray. We’ve come to warn you that there’s some hot lava and a flood of water headed your way.
Oh, no! A flood! Don’t worry, it’s safe on the other side of the mountain. Hold on and tighten your flippers. This could get bumpy.
We made it! Ah, we should be safe.
Peso! Sure is nice to see you again.
You, too, Paani! Has everybody in the herd arrived safe and sound?
Definitely. Oh, wait. Where’s Stefan?
Stefan? Stefan! Oh, yes. I’ll be able to get a good view of the action from up here.
Stefan! Oh, Dad! You’ve got to see this. It looks so cool!
Stefan! Oh, my leg! Peso! Maybe I can get him with the Octo-Grabber. I can’t get close enough. I’m going in!
Looks like you could use a hand with that.
Thanks. That’s better. Thank you.
Hot lava is going to pour into this ravine any moment now. We’ll be in trouble if we don’t hurry.
We’ve got you. Grab on! Pull! Pull!
– Stefan!
– Dad! Oh, thank goodness you’re all right. Look! The lava is about to pour in.
Oh! That’s spectacular.
