ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel 9 Story Kids Zerby Derby |????| ROAD RESCUE |????| Best of Zerby Town | Clip Compilation | Kids Cars
Once upon a time, in a place full of fun and adventure, there were little cars called Zerbies. They loved to drive around and explore, but sometimes they ran into problems. One day, they had a big traffic jam because they didn’t know whose turn it was to go!
Rex and Zach, two clever Zerbies, decided they needed a plan. They didn’t want to spend all day directing traffic. So, they started looking around for ideas. “Answers are everywhere,” they thought. But all they saw were plants and driftwood, which didn’t help much.
Then, Zach had a fun idea! He realized they could build a new path that would let the Zerbies cross without bumping into each other. They called their friends, the construction Zerbies, to help. Together, they used logs and other materials to make a special crossing where one Zerbie could go over and another could go under. It worked perfectly!
Next, the Zerbies wanted to drive up a steep hill. But it was too hard to go straight up. Zach tried going sideways and discovered something amazing. If they went up the hill diagonally, it was much easier! This kind of road is called a “switchback” because it switches directions to make climbing easier.
Back on Main Street, the Zerbies realized they needed more space to avoid traffic jams. They decided to move their garages back a bit to make the street wider. This way, everyone had plenty of room to drive without getting stuck.
To make sure no one got lost, Zach put up lots of signs showing which way to go. Now, the Zerbies could follow the signs and avoid getting confused. It was like a fun treasure hunt with arrows pointing the way!
Finally, the Zerbies had to move a big log blocking the trail. Zach and his friend worked together, pushing the log from different sides. By using teamwork, they managed to move the log out of the way. Hooray!
The Zerbies learned that by working together and trying different ideas, they could solve any problem. Whether it was building a new path, climbing a hill, or moving a log, they always found a way. And they had lots of fun doing it!
Remember, just like the Zerbies, you can solve problems by looking around, trying new things, and working with friends. Adventure is everywhere if you know where to look!
Build Your Own Path: Gather some toy cars and blocks or other small objects you can use to create a path. Try to build a path where one car can go over and another can go under, just like the Zerbies did. Experiment with different materials and see which ones work best. Can you think of other ways to solve a traffic jam with your toys?
Switchback Challenge: Find a small hill or a ramp at home or in the playground. Try to walk straight up and then try going up diagonally like a switchback. Which way is easier? Why do you think the Zerbies found it easier to go up the hill diagonally? Discuss with a friend or family member how this might help in real life, like when hiking or driving on a mountain road.
Design Your Own Traffic Signs: Use paper and crayons to create your own traffic signs. Think about what signs would help the Zerbies avoid getting lost. You can make arrows, stop signs, or even fun signs like “Zerbie Crossing.” Once you’re done, place them around your room or yard and guide a toy car through your homemade road system. How do the signs help in directing the traffic?
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript, removing any informal language, filler words, and maintaining clarity:
—
We would switch. It works! How long are we going to do this? I never thought of that. We might have to stay here indefinitely because the Zerbies will run into each other if we don’t tell them whose turn it is. I don’t want to spend forever doing this. Maybe we should try again your way. We need a solution that doesn’t require us to be here all day.
Let’s look around; after all, answers are everywhere.
Do you see anything, Zach? All I see are plants. My side of the road is pretty clear. I can’t see anything through those plants; there are just too many.
I’m not having any problems at all. Can we go somewhere else? Sure, we can go this way. Oh, hey, it’s wide open over here! This driftwood is interesting, but I don’t think it’s going to work.
We need to find a way to cross paths. Look at these pine needles. Nope, I don’t think those will work. I have some moss and some grass, but that’s not going to work either.
I wonder if there’s anything down here that can help us with our crossing problem. Hey, Rex, look at me! Watch this!
That was fun, Zach! You were right on top of me. That gives me an idea. I know how to solve the problem.
Rex to Chase, are you there?
Yep, hi guys! What’s going on?
Can you please get the construction Zerbies to meet us over in the leafy forest? We’re going to need some help getting things done.
Sure, I’ll send them over right away.
Hey, Zach, come on, let’s go! But what’s the plan, Rex?
Good call! We’re ready to build.
I need some more materials. I got some water logs, guys. Here I come!
Look, here come some Zerbies now! Oh, look at that! Spike went over and Rey went under. Now our trails can finally cross!
Which one do you want to drive first, Zach?
I don’t think I want to drive on either trail.
Now that’s more like it! It’s straight, it’s fast, it’s your favorite! Let’s go back up to the top of the hill so we can try it again.
Oh, wait! I can’t quite get up this hill; this road is steep. Going straight down was excellent fun, but I guess having a road go straight up the hill isn’t going to work.
Should we try again?
Yeah, but what should we do?
Let’s try driving up the hill again and see if anything works.
Okay, I just need to try it this way. Whoa! What if I try this way? Oh wait, it doesn’t really work.
I can’t go this way; I’ll go to the side. What if I try it this way? No, I just can’t make it up.
It’s too steep. If I try to go around, then… well, I’m fine. We are just going to have to try something else.
Hey, you’re doing it!
I am?
Yeah, you’re going sideways across the hill!
Well, yeah, kind of up and to the side. Diagonal, maybe that’s the answer! We build a road to go up and across.
Say no more!
We’re here, going up and across!
Okay, let’s get these logs out of the way. Great job, Danny! We’re partway up the hill already; we’re going to be at the top in no time!
This is definitely the answer. Come on over this way.
There’s a big rock over here on this side of the hill. I can’t push it. It looks like we have to try again.
What should we do differently?
Why don’t we just turn around and go across the hill in the other direction?
Oh yeah, that way we can keep going diagonally up the hill, and it won’t be too steep to drive.
There’s a name for this kind of road that switches direction going up the hill; it’s called a switchback.
A switchback?
Yeah, it’s called that because it switches across the hill so the road never gets too steep to drive.
I like it!
Oh, this side of the hill is coming up. It’s okay; we can just turn around and go across the other way again.
Switchback!
Oh yeah, that’s a good idea, Zach. But how do we get out of this mess if we can’t even get into our driveway?
I have an idea. Everyone back up to the nearest driveway so we can get sorted out.
Okay, good. Now everyone head towards the lake. You go first.
Are you coming, Zach?
No, I have to direct traffic.
Alright, I’ll see you later.
Okay, me next! I’m going to go to the lake this time.
I’ll fix that when I come back. Right now, everyone is going toward the hill; it’s your turn.
Alright, here I go up the hill! Hey, it worked! I guess we just need someone here to direct traffic.
Okay, Rex, you can go now. Have a great day!
Hey, Zach, how’s directing traffic going?
It’s working perfectly! What have you been up to?
I was going to drive to the leafy trail. Do you want to come?
Oh, the leafy trail! I love that one, but I have to direct traffic.
But there’s nobody here now.
You deserve a break; you’ve been here all day.
Okay, maybe just a minute.
That was great! I love the leafy trail!
Me too!
What happened?
Well, we got into another traffic jam.
I thought you were going to direct us!
I wanted to take a break, but I guess someone always needs to be here.
That’s not fair; you can’t spend all day directing traffic.
Yeah, but we have to do something. Having only one lane for Main Street causes too many problems.
Well, we’re Zerbies; we love problems! We just need to try again.
You’re right!
What should we do? Should we widen Main Street so there are two lanes?
Okay, the best way to do that is to shorten our driveways.
What does everybody think of that?
Oh no, no, no!
Well, okay, but how do we make Main Street wider without shortening our driveways?
I know! How about we move our garages back a bit?
Hey, that’s a good idea!
Let’s try it!
Zach, are you nearby?
Actually, I’m right over here. I’m stuck in the same traffic as you are.
How about here, Zach?
That’s much further back than before.
Alright, touching cables!
Thanks, Stretch!
Anytime!
Wow, now everyone’s garage is further back, so our driveways can still be long, and Main Street can be really wide.
Alright, let’s do it again!
He’s pointing that way.
Well, I guess that means we should go that way.
Oh, there’s another turn coming up. Okay, I don’t see any signs, though. Which way should we go?
I don’t know; let’s take the turn.
Where did the road go?
I don’t know.
What are you doing down there? That’s not the way!
There was no sign indicating which way to go, so we just took the turn.
Sorry, Zerbies, that’s my fault. I guess I need to use more signs.
That’s okay, Zach. As long as there are enough signs, we won’t get confused.
You go back and add some more signs, and then we’ll get out of here and try again.
Okay, give me a couple of minutes, and I’ll put up all the signs you’ll ever need to know which way the detour is.
This one wants you to turn, this one warns you that that’s where to turn, and this one points straight.
Now to let the other Zerbies know that they can start the detour.
That’s Zach’s horn! Alright, the detour is ready!
I hope it works this time.
Me too! I don’t want to end up upside down like last time.
Okay, where do we go now?
Oh wait, I see the sign!
It’s working!
Another sign is coming up to raise this way!
Great! The detour is working!
We knew you could do it!
Wait, we can’t do that!
Why not?
We have to solve this log problem; we don’t just want to leave it in the middle of the trail like this.
You’re right! Someone might come along and bump into it, just like you did, Zach.
Anyway, we always try again, right?
Totally true!
What else can we do?
We tried pushing it from both ends, and it moved forward, but it stayed on the trail. We tried pushing it from one end, and it just turned around in circles, but it didn’t move at all.
Let’s try again!
Let me think… what haven’t we tried?
I’m going to tag Zach again; it’s so much fun!
What are you doing? You’re not supposed to be playing now; we’re supposed to be looking for answers!
No more book; I want to play tag! It’s so much fun!
Okay, well, we should be looking, not playing tag.
You’re right; I’m sorry. I’ll just go look over here again.
But now, where was I? Okay, the log. We have the log, and we have to do something with it.
You’re so busy tagging me, you tagged me right off the trail!
Oh, sorry, Zach!
Wait a minute, that’s it! You’re a genius!
I am?
Yes! You pushed me off the trail!
I know, I’m sorry!
No, don’t you see? You pushed me in two different ways!
Oh, well, I’m double sorry!
No, no, no! That’s what we need to do with the log! We need to use both kinds of pushing—first at one end, then at both ends!
That’s it! I think you’re the genius, Zach!
Great! Okay, let’s try again!
So we both go on one end first, and we’re going to turn the log. Ready?
Okay!
But not too far; I don’t want to get dizzy again!
Right!
Okay, ready, set, turbo!
Not too far! Almost! Look, there!
Alright, that ought to do it! So it’s sideways now.
Okay, so now we’re going to get on each end.
Yeah!
Okay, ready?
Ready!
I knew we could do it! Like I always say, we just have to try again!
