One sunny day, Rex and Zack were thinking about what fun things they could do. Zack had a great idea: “Do you want to go to the sandpit?” Rex thought that was a fantastic idea, so they decided to race each other there!
When they got to the sandpit, they found a big log. “Look at me, Rex!” Zack said as he climbed on top of it. They wondered if they could drive over it. Zack went first, and Rex followed. Then they found an even bigger log!
The big log was too tall to drive over, so they thought of building a ramp with sand. But the sand kept falling down. They needed help, so Zack called Chase and Struck to join them. Together, they tried to build the ramp, but the sand was too soft.
Walter had a clever idea: “Let’s wet the sand!” Wet sand is stronger and holds together better. Walter sprayed water on the sand, and it worked! Zack tried the ramp again, and this time, he made it to the top of the log!
From the top of the log, Zack could see the whole sandpit. Rex joined him, and they had fun exploring. They even thought about building another ramp to get down!
Meanwhile, Chase was busy helping friends. He helped Lily find a trail and helped Bob find his lost orange ball. Chase was always ready to help from high up in the sky!
Axel wanted to join a race with the construction Zerbies, even though it was a bit different from what he was used to. He tried carrying logs, but they were heavy! With some help, Axel figured out how to pull the logs one at a time. He was super fast and finished the race!
In the end, it was a three-way tie, and everyone won! They decided to have another race with even more fun challenges. Axel was tired but happy to be part of the fun. Everyone agreed to be quiet so Axel could rest.
And that’s how Rex, Zack, and their friends had a fantastic day full of teamwork, creativity, and fun in the sandpit!
Build Your Own Ramp: Gather some sand, a small toy car, and a cup of water. Try to build a ramp like Rex and Zack did. First, try with dry sand and see what happens. Then, add a little water to the sand and try again. What do you notice? Which ramp is stronger? Talk about why wet sand might be better for building.
Log Balancing Act: Find a small log or a sturdy stick and place it on the ground. Try to balance a toy or a small object on top of it. Can you make it stay without falling? What happens if you use a bigger log or a different object? This activity helps you understand balance and stability, just like Zack and Rex did with their logs.
Helping Hands Game: Just like Chase helped his friends, think of a way you can help someone today. It could be helping a friend find something, or helping a family member with a small task. After you help, share how it made you feel. Why is it important to help others, and how can teamwork make things easier?

[Music]
Oh, that was fun! So, what do you want to do today, Rex?
I don’t know, Zack. What do you want to do?
Um, do you want to go to the sand pit?
Sure, that sounds like a great idea!
Hey, I’ll race you there!
Tag it!
Oh wow, Max, look at it! It’s huge!
Yeah, I love the sandpit! Let’s play!
Come on, I love spinning my tires!
Hey, let’s go over here!
Oh, hey, look, a log!
Yeah, watch this! I’m going to get right up on top of this log!
Look at me, Rex!
Oh hey, do you think we can drive over it?
Okay, you go first.
Alright, wait for me!
Hey, Zack, look, an even bigger log!
Oh yeah, let’s drive over it!
Okay, let’s go!
That log’s too big for you, Jax. I’m stuck.
I know, okay, I’ll get you. I’m going to give you a little boost.
Thanks!
Look at the size of that log! Hey, Zack, wouldn’t it be great if we could drive on top of that one?
But it’s too big.
Right, but where’s the sand? 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?
Oh yeah, but we might need help.
Zack to Chase!
Hello, Zack! What’s up?
Rex and I are at the sandpit. Can you get Struck to meet us there?
You bet! I’ll tell them right now.
I heard you guys needed my help. Are we building something?
I hope we’re 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!
Lift!
Okay, strength!
Good! Perfect! You guys are really good at this!
Uhh, it isn’t staying together very well.
Here, let me try. We just need to shape this part here, 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.
There! We did it!
Yes, it’s all the way to the top now!
Alright, let’s get on top of that log!
So close!
Good try, Zack!
Hmm, 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.
We have to try again!
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.
Who said that?
I don’t know!
Hi guys, what are you doing?
Oh hey, Zack!
Well, I was just wetting the sand.
Wetting the sand?
Yeah, well when the sand is wet, it’s a lot easier to drive on.
Oh, that gives me an idea! Come on, Walter, follow me!
Oh, okay! Where are we going?
We built a ramp! It’s by the log!
Where?
Hey, Zack!
Oh hi, Walter! What are you doing here?
Walter’s going to help us! 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 forth that side, up high and low, 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, Zack! You can do it!
Alright!
You can do it!
Huh, it’s holding together! My wheels aren’t slipping! It’s working!
Hey, I did it!
Wow!
Alright, we need to go!
Fantastic!
Wow, I can see the whole sandpit from up here!
Come on up, Rex!
Alright, on my way!
This is going to be fun!
Whoa, take it easy, Rex!
Here we go!
Hey, it’s great up here!
Come on, Rex!
Okay, go this way!
What’s over there?
Oh, it’s the other end of the log!
How do we get down?
Um, I guess we build another ramp!
Hey, Ray! Hey, Annie!
Oh hi, guys! Nice to see y’all!
Well, it’s a beautiful day to be in the sky, I can tell you!
Hey, hey! Construction service! That project is looking good!
Chase, see you later!
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, what do you need?
Lily, can you come and help? I need to know something about a trail I’m on.
I’ll meet you by the path!
Oh, 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!
Thanks, Chase!
Bob to Chase, come in!
Chase, can you come and help me?
I’m on my way!
Bob, I’ll see you later, Lily! Bye!
Chase!
Well, hey, 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. No, it’s not over here.
Uh oh, wait, wait! Yes, yes, I see it! It’s over here in the weeds!
Oh, thanks, Chase! You’re the best!
Back to Chase, come in!
Um, anytime, Bob!
Uh, I’m coming, Zack!
This is Chase! What do you need, Zack?
Um, I’m on a trail and I forget which way is out. Can you come and show me?
Uh, okay, I’m coming! Just sit tight!
Oh, hi, Zack!
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!
Zack, 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 worth so much, Zack!
Bob to Chase, come in!
Um, you could take this next one! See ya!
Uh, oh, okay!
Uh, see you, Chase!
Uh, this is Zack! Bob, I’m helping Chase today! I’ll be right there!
Zack, I didn’t know you could fly!
Okay, let’s see!
Um, oh hey, Bob!
Hey, Zack!
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?
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, Zack!
Alright, ready, set, turbo!
I don’t see it!
You see it?
Uh, no! Do you want to push back to shore?
Uh, yes please!
Okay, just okay! Push me from… yeah, can you just… I got it!
That’s good! I can’t! All I can do is this tire paddle!
I know! I got you!
There you go!
I guess I didn’t do a good job as Chase would have.
It’s okay, Zack! I’m sure I could still help somehow!
Mm-hmm!
Come in, Zack!
This is Zack! Go ahead, Lily!
Are you really helping Chase today? If so, I need your help!
Uh, I’m on my way just as soon as I get dried off!
Hello, Lily! I’m here!
Lily, I’m up here!
Oh, well, 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!
You 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!
Yeah, okay, I’m coming up!
Lily, do you see it?
I think I see it! Hang on!
Hang on, I’ll be right there!
I’m dizzy now!
Okay, I’m up there!
Uh, I made it, Lily! I’m here!
Good job, Zack!
Great! Now how do we get back down?
Easy! We just take the rocks down!
Which rocks?
Uh, well, oh, I can’t see the trail from here!
Oh, I’ll have to call Chase to help!
Zack to Chase!
Zack to Chase!
Uh, this is Chase! Go ahead, Zack!
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 him!
Do you see him?
Not yet! I don’t see him!
Where?
Right there! Can you see him 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, Zack?
Well, you can see from much higher up! It makes things easier to see that I can’t see!
Wait, that’s it!
What’s it?
How high do you normally fly, Chase?
Oh, uh, I’d say from about here!
Well, try going higher!
Okay!
Can you see even more from up there?
I can! I can see the whole forest! And look, there’s Derby 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 Bob from way up here! Now I can watch everything! If anybody needs me, I’ll be in the sky!
[Music]
Yeah, I’m super fast! I can feel the wind!
Feel the wind! Feel the wind!
And my spoiler!
Yeah!
Okay, look out, grassy!
Look out, leaf! Because here comes…
[Music]
Wow!
[Music]
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!
[Music]
Hey, I almost didn’t see you there, Zack! You’re moving fast this morning!
Actually, 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 derby race! I’m headed there myself!
A race? Can I join in, Axel?
You’re racing, Derby! This is a race for construction derbies!
Well, maybe they’ll let me race if I only use three wheels or something!
Well, I suppose we can…
I still don’t think it’s that kind of a race, Axel!
Wow!
Yeah, yeah! Well, that’s what the construction service you’re gonna see! Because I’m gonna be so fast and in front of them!
[Music]
Okay, here we go!
Ready, set, go!
What’s going on, Axel?
Is this an open race? I mean, can anyone join in?
It’s for construction service, Axel, and you’re not a construction derby!
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!
Oh, but I love racing! I say if Axel wants to race, then we should let him race!
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Can I? Can I?
Well, if you really want to, better load up!
Load? Uh, wet load that 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 the construction derby 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?
[Music]
I think they’re too heavy for you, Axel!
Yeah, you think?
Oh wait, wait, wait!
[Music]
I won! I won!
Axel, you can’t win without your logs!
I’ll just have to try again!
That’s the spirit, Axel! You can do it!
Yeah, but how?
Um, maybe you could… um… yeah, push them in front of you!
Oh, okay! I’ll try it!
I’ll try it!
Okay!
[Music]
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!
But I’m gonna try again!
Yeah! 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 gonna try!
Can you help me attach the log so I can try it?
Sure thing! But we have to hurry!
Okay!
Hold on!
Okay, I think you’re good!
Okay, go! Go, Axel!
Here I go!
[Music]
Yeah, but you have to bring the other logs!
Oh yeah, I forgot!
Alright, ready?
Okay, quick, quick, quick, Zack! Try the second log!
Got it!
Okay, let’s go!
Yeah!
Alright, doing great, Axel!
[Music]
Okay, there’s still time! I can do it!
Okay, ready?
Yup! Set!
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 derby race any time!
Oh, that’s great!
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 give him a chance to sleep!
Yeah, okay! Nobody make any noise!
No noise at all!
[Music]
How long do you want to stay here?
