Hey there! Today, Zach and Rex are having a super fun day. They decided to go to the sand pit to play. Do you like playing in the sand too?
Zach and Rex raced to the sand pit. “Tag, you’re it!” shouted Zach. The sand pit was huge, and they were excited to play. They found a big log and decided to climb on top of it. “Look at me, Rex! I’m on top of the log!” said Zach.
Rex had a great idea. “Let’s build a ramp to drive over the log!” he said. They needed help, so they called their friend Strut. Strut came to help them build a ramp with sand. They scooped and lifted lots of sand to make the ramp.
But the sand ramp kept falling down. “We need to make it stronger,” said Zach. Then they saw their friends Walter and Jake. Walter was wetting the sand, and he said, “Wet sand is easier to drive on!”
So, they decided to wet their sand ramp. Walter helped by spraying water on the ramp. “Now it’s strong!” said Zach. He tried driving up the ramp, and it worked! “Come on up, Rex!” he called.
From the top of the log, Zach and Rex could see the whole sand pit. They had so much fun exploring. But then they wondered, “How do we get down?”
“Let’s build another ramp!” said Rex. They laughed and started building again. Building and playing in the sand is so much fun!
Later, Zach and his friends helped each other with different tasks. Chase flew high in the sky to help everyone find their way. He could see everything from up there!
Bob lost his orange ball, and Chase helped find it. “I see it in the weeds!” said Chase. Bob was so happy to have his ball back.
Axel loved racing, and he wanted to join a race with his friends. Even though it was a race for construction Zerbies, Axel tried his best. He learned to pull logs one at a time and had lots of fun!
In the end, everyone was happy and had a great time playing and helping each other. Remember, playing and working together with friends makes everything more fun!
Build Your Own Ramp: Gather some sand, a small toy car, and a cup of water. Try to build a ramp like Zach and Rex did. First, make a ramp with dry sand and see if your toy car can go up. Then, wet the sand and try again. Which ramp works better? Talk about why wet sand might be stronger than dry sand.
Sand Pit Adventure: Imagine you are in a big sand pit like Zach and Rex. What would you build? Draw a picture of your sand pit adventure. Would you make a castle, a road, or something else? Share your drawing with a friend and explain what you built and why.
Helping Friends Game: Just like Zach and his friends helped each other, think of a way you can help a friend today. Maybe you can help them find something they’ve lost or play a game they like. Afterward, talk about how it felt to help someone and how it made your friend feel.

Hey, look at me! That was fun! So, what do you want to do today, Rex?
I don’t know, Zach. What do you want to do?
Um, do you want to go to the sand pit?
Sure, that sounds like a great idea! Alright, I’ll race you there!
Tag, you’re it!
Oh wow, Rex, look at it! It’s huge! I love the sand!
Let’s play!
Come on, let’s play in the sand!
Hey, are you going to go over there?
Hey, let’s go over here!
Wait for me, Rex!
Oh, hey, look! A log!
Watch this, I’m going to get right up on top of this log!
Look at me, Rex! I’m on top of the log!
Let me try!
That’s fine. Do you think we can drive over it?
Okay, you go first!
Woohoo!
Alright, wait for me!
Hey, Zach, look! An even bigger log!
Oh yeah, let’s drive over it!
Okay, let’s go!
That log’s too big for you.
I’m stuck!
Okay, I’ll tell you what, I’ll give you a little boost.
Thanks, Rex! Let’s go!
Whoa, look at the size of that log!
Hey, Zach, wouldn’t it be great if we could drive on top of that one?
But it’s too big.
Right, but where’s Strut? We could build something to get on top of it, like a ramp!
Great idea! But what can we use in the sand pit to make a ramp with?
Oh yeah, sand! But we might need help.
Uh, Zach to Chase!
Chase, hello!
Zach and I are at the sand pit. Can you get Strut to meet us there?
You bet! I’ll go tell him right now!
I heard you guys needed my help! Are we building something?
Yeah, we want to get to the top of this log, so we’re going to pile a bunch of sand right here and make it into a ramp!
Let’s build!
Yay!
Woo, scoop, lift!
Okay, Strut, release!
Thank you!
Backing up…
Well done!
Lift!
Alright, more!
Release!
Perfect! You guys are really good at this!
It isn’t staying together very well.
Here, let me try!
We just need to shape this part here to push it up.
It’s not working.
You’re right. No matter how we try to shape it into a ramp, the sand just keeps falling back down.
Well then, we need to try again!
If we can’t change the shape of this sand pile, then we have to make it big enough to reach the top of the log on its own!
More sand!
Good thing it’s so fun to move!
This is turning into a really big job.
Big jobs are what we big Zerbies are made for!
Alright, one more load should do it, Strut!
Finish!
Yeah, we did it!
It’s all the way to the top now!
Alright, let’s get on top of that log!
Okay, tell you what, I’m going to give you a little boost!
Almost… almost!
So close!
Good try, Zach!
My tires just kept spinning. I think this sand is too soft to drive up.
We have to find some way to make the ramp stronger.
Let’s look around and see if we can find something that will help us!
Answers are everywhere!
Good idea! Let’s go!
Oh, pine tree!
Too tall, too skinny.
Uh, no time to move on.
Do you have any idea?
Oh hey, it’s Walter and Jake!
Hey, Walter! Hey, Jake!
What are you doing?
Oh hey, Zach! I was just wetting the sand.
When the sand is wet, it’s a lot easier to drive on!
Uh oh, hey, that gives me an idea!
Come on, Walter, follow me!
Where are we going?
We built a ramp! It’s by the log!
It’s really cool!
You should see it!
The way to fix our ramp is to get it wet!
Water will make it stronger!
Yeah, wet sand seems to hold together better than dry sand!
So I thought we’d try giving it a good soaking!
Well guess what? I’m the guy to do just that!
Okay, stand back! Here comes the water!
Alright, there you go!
You got to go up high a little bit, then you got to go over that side and up high and low to get the whole thing wet!
There we go!
That’s one wet ramp!
I guarantee it!
I’m going to go try it out!
Go, Zach! You can do it!
Alright, you can do it!
It’s holding together!
My wheels aren’t slipping!
Hey, it’s working!
Wow, I can see the whole sand pit from up here!
Come on up, Rex!
Alright, on my way!
This is going to be fun!
Take it easy, Rex!
Here we go!
Hey, it’s great up here!
This is fun!
Come on, Rex!
Okay, go this way!
What’s over there?
Oh, it’s the other end of the log!
Uh, how do we get down?
Um, I guess we build another ramp!
We need another ramp!
You know, we should have thought of this before!
Woohoo!
Hey, Ray! Hey, Annie!
Oh hi, guys! Nice to see you!
Well, it’s a beautiful day to be in the sky, I can tell you!
Hey, construction Zerbies! That project is looking good!
Hey, Chase! See you later!
Now, does that trail go up there or is that just rocks?
I wonder.
Well, there’s one way to find out!
Wait, if I drive up there and it isn’t the trail, then I might not know where to go.
I’d better call Chase!
Lily to Chase, come in!
Chase, this is Chase! What do you need?
Lily, can you come and help? I need to know something about a trail!
I’m on my way!
Hi, Chase!
See that rocky hill behind me?
Yep, I see it!
If I climb up there, are there more trails I can follow?
Can you check for me, please?
You’ve got it! I’ll let you know!
Thanks!
Okay, up, up, up we go!
Yep, there’s a trail up here!
Alright, you can keep going if you get up here, Lily!
Woohoo!
Thanks, Chase!
Bob to Chase, come in!
Chase, can you come and help me?
I’m on my way!
Bob, what’s the problem?
Well, I lost my orange ball!
Could you help?
You bet! Let me have a look!
Okay, I don’t see it over here.
Uh, it’s not over here.
Oh wait, yes! Yes! I see it! It’s over here in the weeds!
Oh, thanks, Chase! You’re the best!
Talk to Chase!
Chase, this is Chase!
Um, anytime, Bob!
I’m coming!
Zach, this is Chase! What do you need?
Um, I’m on a trail and I forget which way is out.
Can you come and show me?
Okay, I’m coming! Just sit tight!
Hi, Zach!
Hi, Chase! Which way do I go?
Oh, it’s this way! Come on!
Oh, over here!
You got it!
Oh, here!
Yep!
Oh, okay! Thanks, Chase!
No problem!
Zach, you sound tired!
Well, I love flying around and keeping track of Zerbies when they need help, but I’ve been going full speed all day!
I need a nap!
Gee, I wish I could help!
Wow, that’s a great idea! You should help!
That’s not what…
Zach to Chase, come in!
Um, you could take this next one!
See you!
Okay, see you!
Chase, this is Zach!
Bob, I’m helping Chase today!
I’ll be right there!
Zach, I didn’t know you could fly!
Okay, let’s see!
Oh hey, Zach!
Hi! What do you need help with?
I lost my orange ball again!
Chase could usually see it from the sky!
Oh, I’ll look for it!
But how are you going to see from up high like Chase does?
Oh, I can fly just like Chase!
When I do a jump, I’ll get my life jacket!
Okay, I got my life jacket on!
Are you watching, Bob?
Yep, I’m watching!
Alright, ready, turbo!
I don’t see it!
Did you see it?
Uh, no!
Do you want to push back to shore?
Uh, yes please!
Well, okay!
Just push me from…
Yeah, can you just…
That’s good!
I can’t! All I can do is tire paddle!
I got you!
There you go!
I guess I didn’t do as good a job as Chase would have!
It’s okay, Zach! I’m sure I could still help somehow!
L to Zach, come in!
Zach, this is Zach! Go ahead!
Lily, are you really helping Chase today?
If so, I need your help!
I’m on my way! Just as soon as I get dried off!
Lily, hello! I’m here!
Lily, I’m up here!
What do you need?
I need to know where the trail is to get down!
Oh, okay! I can help!
I’ll come up!
Here I come!
I can’t seem to get up there, Lily!
I can’t!
No, no! You have to go around!
That’s how I got up!
Oh, okay! I think I see it!
There’s rocks and stuff!
Yep!
Okay, I’m coming up!
Lily, do you see it?
I think I see it!
Hang on!
Wa! Hang on! I’ll be right there!
Ooh, I’m dizzy now!
Okay, I’m up!
There! I made it!
Lily, I’m here!
Good job, Zach!
Great! Now how do we get back down?
Easy! We just take the rocks down!
Which rocks?
Uh, what?
Oh, I can’t see the trail from here!
Oh, I’ll have to call Chase to help!
Zach to Chase!
Uh, this is Chase! Go ahead!
Zach, I need you to help me and Lily find our way off this hill!
Okay, I’m on my way!
Oh, I see them!
Come on!
Where?
I don’t see them!
Do you see them?
Not yet! I don’t see them!
Where?
Right there!
Can you see them in the sky?
Oh, there he is!
Hi, Chase!
Chase, I’m sorry to wake you, but I can’t do what you can do!
It’s okay! We can always try again!
What wasn’t working for you, Zach?
Well, you can see from much higher up!
It makes things easier to see!
That I can’t see!
Wait, that’s it!
How high do you normally fly, Chase?
Oh, I’d say from about here!
Well, try going higher!
Oh, okay!
Can you see even more from up there?
I can! I can see the whole forest!
And look, there’s Zerby Town!
I don’t get it!
Well, you see, if Chase is really high up, he doesn’t need to go far to see everything!
It’s true! I can see both from way up here now!
I can watch everything!
If anybody needs me, I’ll be in the sky!
[Music]
Woohoo!
Yeah, I’m super fast!
I can feel the wind!
Feel the wind!
Feel the wind and my spoiler!
Yeah!
Woo!
Okay, look out, grassy up!
Look out, Leaf!
‘Cause here comes Axel!
[Music]
Woohoo!
Yeah!
Woohoo!
Wow!
Yeah!
Well, you know what? There’s no one else around this morning!
Well, that means that there’s no one to slow me down!
Woohoo!
Yeah!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Hey, I almost didn’t see you there, Zach!
You’re moving fast this morning, Axel!
Yeah, it’s a beautiful day, and there’s leafy roads!
You know how it is!
Oh yeah!
So, where is everyone?
They’re all at the construction Zerby race!
I’m headed there myself!
A race? Can I join in?
Axel, you’re racing Zerbies!
This is a race for construction Zerbies!
Well, maybe they’ll let me race if I only use three wheels or something!
Well, I suppose we could!
I still don’t think it’s that kind of race, Axel!
Wow, I’m going to be so fast!
I just need to see my back tires!
Yeah!
Well, that’s what the construction Zerbies are going to see!
‘Cause I’m going to be so fast in front of them!
[Music]
Yeah!
Okay, ready, Zerbies?
Ready!
Okay, here we go!
Ready, set, go!
Uh, what’s going on?
Axel, is this an open race?
I mean, can anyone join in?
It’s for construction Zerbies, Axel, and you’re not a construction Zerby!
I know, but it’s a race, and I love to race!
But we’re going to be moving things to the construction site!
I’m not sure it’s your kind of race!
But I love racing!
I say if Axel wants to race, then we should let him race!
Yeah!
Can I?
Well, if you really want to, better load up!
Load what?
Load the winner is the first to carry three logs to the finish line!
Three of those logs?
But they’re huge!
I know, that’s the fun of it!
See, that’s what we do in a construction Zerby race!
Are you sure you want to join?
Well, uh, a race is a race, and I’m the best racer around!
I’m in!
Are you sure, Axel? These are pretty heavy!
Sure I am! Let’s go!
Here we go!
Ready, set, turbo!
Here I go!
I think they’re too heavy for you, Axel!
You think?
Oh wait, wait, wait!
I think I can feel it!
Yeah!
Ah, I won! I won!
Axel, you can’t win without your logs!
Oh, uh, right!
Hi!
Okay, I’ll just have to try again!
That’s the spirit, Axel! You can do it!
Yeah, but how?
Um, maybe you could…
Yeah, uh, push them in front of you!
Oh, okay! I’ll try it!
I’ll try it!
Okay, you can do it, Axel!
Go, Axel!
Nothing’s happening!
Axel, nothing’s happening!
I can do it!
Keep pushing!
R is in the bag!
Are you okay?
Uh, yeah!
Did I win?
Uh, not exactly!
You didn’t really move the logs at all!
But you still have a chance!
I’m going to try again!
Good for you!
What else can you try?
I don’t know!
Racers aren’t used to hauling things!
What would a truck do?
Well, if it was me, I would only take as big a load as I could manage!
And I’d probably pull instead of push!
It’s easier to see where you’re going!
So what if I tried pulling the logs and I pulled them one at a time?
That might work!
But you have to do the race three times!
You have to come back for each log!
Yeah, but I’m super fast, and I’m going to try!
Can you help me attach the log so I can try it?
Sure thing! But we have to hurry!
Okay!
Okay, hold on!
Okay, I think you’re good!
Okay, go, go, Axel!
Here I go!
Finish!
Here I come!
Yes! Yes! I did it!
Yeah! I’m the greatest!
Yeah, but you have to bring the other logs!
Oh yeah! I forgot!
Alright, ready, set, turbo!
Hi, Axel!
Hi, Axel!
Come on, Axel!
Come on!
Okay, quick! Quick!
Zach, tie the second log!
Almost got it!
Okay, good to go!
Yeah! Alright, doing great!
These are heavy, but that’s two!
Here I go!
Go, Axel!
Okay, there’s still time! I can do it!
Okay, ready, set, go!
Oh no!
We’re almost at the finish!
Come on, Axel!
Do it!
And the winner is…
Alright, Axel! You made it with all three logs!
Way to go!
I told you I could do it!
So who won?
It was a three-way tie!
That means you all won!
Alright, great job, Axel!
Yeah, you can be part of a construction Zerby race anytime!
Oh, that’s great!
Hey, in fact, since we all tied, we should have another race as a tiebreaker!
Hey, yeah!
This time we should take five logs!
Yeah, or big rocks!
Or rocks and logs together!
Wow, that sounds fun!
What do you think, Axel?
Axel?
Uh, I think Axel’s tuckered out!
Come on, everyone! Let’s
