Hey there! Have you ever heard of Sharkdog? He’s a super cool friend who’s part shark and part dog. But guess what? Sharkdog got himself into a chilly situation, and we need to help him out!
Sharkdog went missing, and we think he might be stuck in the freezer room. It’s super cold in there, and there are tons of ice blocks. We need to find him fast before he turns into a popsicle! Let’s grab an ice pick and start searching through the ice.
While we were looking, someone had a bright idea! If we shine a light through the ice, it might help us spot Sharkdog. So, we turned on more lights and kept searching. Suddenly, we thought we found him!
While all this was happening, Captain Barb was telling a story about a merman who loved shrimp parmigiana. But we were too busy looking for Sharkdog to pay attention. Captain Barb also loves hunting sharks with her special harpoon, Pretty Penelope. She even mentioned a spooky Ghost Shark that she wants to catch!
Finally, we found a heating duct! We can use it to melt the ice and free Sharkdog. But we have to be quick because Captain Barb might find us. She’s not happy about people sneaking around her freezer room!
Just as we were about to free Sharkdog, Captain Barb noticed something was wrong. She thought someone was trying to steal her fish! We had to hide quickly. But Sharkdog was brave and ready to help us escape.
Suddenly, the Ghost Shark appeared! But Sharkdog was super brave and helped us get away. We all ran as fast as we could, and Sharkdog saved us from Captain Barb and the Ghost Shark. Hooray for Sharkdog!
This adventure taught us about teamwork and being brave. Even when things seem scary, like being stuck in a freezer or facing a Ghost Shark, we can work together and find a way out. And remember, having a bright idea can really help when you’re in a tricky situation!
Ice Exploration: At home, with the help of an adult, fill a small container with water and place it in the freezer to make your own ice block. Once it’s frozen, take it out and use a flashlight to shine light through the ice. What do you see? Can you spot any bubbles or cracks inside the ice? Try to draw what you observe. This will help you understand how light can help us see through ice, just like in Sharkdog’s adventure!
Teamwork Challenge: Gather a few friends or family members and create a simple obstacle course in your living room or backyard. Pretend you are in the freezer room, and you need to work together to find Sharkdog. Assign roles like the “light holder” or the “ice melter” and see how quickly you can complete the course by helping each other. Discuss how teamwork helped you succeed and what you learned from the experience.
Bravery Storytime: Think of a time when you were brave, just like Sharkdog. It could be trying something new or helping a friend. Draw a picture or write a short story about your brave moment. Share it with your class or family and talk about how being brave can help in tricky situations.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Sharkdog? Where are you, buddy? Why isn’t he answering? I told you, it’s the freezer room. And judging from these frozen fish, I bet Sharkdog’s turned into a popsicle by now! There’s gotta be a thousand ice blocks in here, and Sharkdog could be in any one of them. Here, grab an ice pick. We gotta find him and get him out fast!
…and that’s when I first spotted him through my spyglass, the merman who loved shrimp parmigiana! Not sure I was listening, Captain Barb. Was that in the Tropic of Capricorn or the Tropic of Cancer? Argh, I told you already, it was the Tropic of Capricorn. Listen up, swab!
– And lay off my fishing net!
– Aye, Captain!
Where was I? What’s taking those guys so long? This could take hours. I got a bright idea, literally! This’ll help us find him! See, when light shines through—
Great! Less science, more Sharkdog! Let’s get some more light in here. Mm… Look! I found him! Uh, better look again. Captain Barb is… a shark hunter? Argh, what I love best is hunting sharks! No shark can get by my prize harpoon, Pretty Penelope. Shark hunting, you say? You, uh, hunt them often? All the time! Small ones, big ones, jumbo sized. The only one that strikes terror in my heart is the Ghost Shark. And when I find him…
Okay, this is bad. Very bad. Max, you found the heating duct! We can melt him out. – Sharkdog! – Max… Sharkdog cold. No, no, no, Sharkdog! Be quiet! A noise from my freezer room? Someone’s in there! Oh, look, your boat’s drifting away! You sneaky little wharf rat. Guys, she’s onto us! Everybody, hide!
Here to steal my fish, are you? Show yourselves, you crafty sea devils! Whoa!
– Scared.
– Steady, buddy. She’s gonna have to go through me first! That’s it! Sharkdog, you gotta swim off and save yourself. Max? It’s our only hope. It’s okay, buddy. Go on.
What have we here? Intruders? Are you fish thieves, eh? I can explain. Why, I should call the Mayor on you! You shall pay! Shiver me timbers, the ghost shark! Whoa, whoa! Sharkdog, you saved us! Guys, run! Ay, Ghost Shark! You haunt me but I’ll haunt you! Ghost shark!
