Fun with Zerbies: Learning About Driveways and Traffic

Hey there! Today, we’re going to have a fun adventure with our friends, the Zerbies. They are little cars that love to explore and solve problems. Let’s see what they are up to!

New Driveways in Zerby Town

All the Zerbies have built new, long driveways for their garages. They are super excited about their new driveways because they look really cool! But, oh no! The driveways are so long that Main Street has become very narrow, with only one lane. This means the Zerbies have to be careful not to bump into each other.

Taking Turns on Main Street

To solve the problem, the Zerbies decide to take turns driving on Main Street. First, the Zerbies going to the hill will drive, and then the ones going to the lake will follow. This way, everyone can drive safely without any crashes. Taking turns is a great way to share the road!

Directing Traffic

Sometimes, the Zerbies get stuck because there isn’t enough room for everyone. Zack, one of the Zerbies, comes up with a smart idea. He decides to stay and direct traffic, telling the Zerbies when it’s their turn to go. This helps everyone move smoothly and safely.

Making More Space

The Zerbies realize that having only one lane is causing too many traffic jams. So, they come up with a clever plan to make Main Street wider. They decide to move their garages back a little bit, which gives them more space for two lanes. Now, everyone can drive without getting stuck!

Exploring the Leafy Trail

With the traffic problem solved, Zack and Axel can finally go on a fun drive together. They decide to explore the leafy trail, which is a beautiful path filled with trees and leaves. It’s a perfect place for a Zerby adventure!

Learning from Problems

The Zerbies love solving problems and trying new things. They know that if something doesn’t work the first time, they can always try again. This is a great lesson for all of us: never give up and keep trying until you find a solution!

Join the Zerbies on Their Adventures

Now that you know all about the Zerbies and their fun adventures, you can join them too! Remember, just like the Zerbies, you can solve any problem by working together and trying new ideas. Have fun exploring and learning!

  • Have you ever had to take turns with your friends or family, like the Zerbies did on Main Street? Can you think of a time when taking turns helped everyone have fun?
  • What do you think it would be like to direct traffic like Zack did? How would you feel if you had to help everyone know when it’s their turn to go?
  • The Zerbies moved their garages to make more space. Can you think of a time when you had to change something to make it work better? What did you do, and how did it help?
  • Traffic Director Game: Gather a few toy cars or small objects to represent the Zerbies. Create a simple road layout on the floor using tape or string. Take turns being the “traffic director” like Zack. Decide who gets to go first and who needs to wait. This will help you understand how taking turns can make everything run smoothly.

  • Build Your Own Driveway: Use building blocks or cardboard to create your own Zerby Town with driveways and roads. Experiment with different driveway lengths and see how it affects the space on the road. Can you find a way to make sure all the Zerbies can drive without getting stuck?

  • Observation Walk: Go for a walk with a grown-up and observe the roads and driveways in your neighborhood. Can you spot places where cars have to take turns? How do people make sure everyone can drive safely? Share your observations with your friends or family.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript, removing any unnecessary repetition and maintaining clarity:

[Music]

Wow, look at everyone’s new driveways! Good work, Zerbies! Thanks, Rex!

Hey, your new long driveway looks great, Axel! Well, yours looks pretty cool too, Zack. I love it when we move our garages around; this is a whole new setup!

Having a super long driveway rocks! I love my new driveway; mine’s great too!

It seems everyone has made driveways like yours. Great! More like fabulous!

Well, I better get going; tons of fun things to do today. Yeah, me too! So many things I want to do today. I’m going to wash up a bit and then maybe I’ll go to the lake, or maybe I’ll just…

Oh, hey! What are you doing? Oh look, there’s only one lane now that we’ve made our driveways longer. Hmm, Main Street is only one lane.

Well, that shouldn’t be a problem. Let’s go!

Uh-oh, this is a problem, but I have an idea. Attention all Zerbies! Would everyone please back up into your driveway?

Okay, backing up into my driveway.

Since Main Street is so narrow, we need to all take turns so we won’t run into each other. Okay, all Zerbies headed towards the hill, we’ll head out first. The rest of us going towards the lake will wait.

That’s a good plan; we can all take turns.

All right, here I go off to the hill. Bye, everybody!

Now, Zerbies headed this way towards the lake, follow me!

All right, have a good day!

Wow, that was a fun time at the lake. I wonder what Axel is up to.

*Zack to Axel* Hey Axel, what’s up? Do you want to meet me at Derby Town?

Yeah, I’m heading back there now. I’ll meet you at our garages.

[Music]

Hi Axel!

Oh, uh, I have to get past you to get to my garage.

Uh, no, we can figure this out. I’ll back up.

We could just make our driveway shorter; that would give us more room. But I just finished building my long driveway!

There must be another way. We just need to try again.

Okay, what if someone was here to direct traffic?

Oh yeah, that’s a good idea, Zack! But how do we get out of this mess if we can’t even get into our driveways?

Uh, everyone back up to the nearest driveway so we can get sorted out.

Okay, I’ll just go back to where I was. I’m out of the way.

Okay, good! Now everyone heading towards the lake, you go first.

Okay, are you coming, Zack?

No, I have to stay and direct traffic.

All right, I’ll see you later!

My turn! Thanks, Zack!

Okay, me next! I’m going to the lake this time.

Oh, I’ll fix that when I come back. Right now, everyone going towards the hill, it’s your turn!

All right, here I go up the hill!

Hey, it worked! I guess we just needed someone here to direct traffic.

Okay, Rex, you can go now. Have a great day!

Bye!

See ya!

Hey Zack, how’s directing traffic going?

It’s working perfectly! What have you been up to?

Well, 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!

Yeah, okay, maybe just a minute.

Okay, let’s go!

That was great! I love the leafy trail!

Oh, me too!

Uh-oh, what happened?

Well, we got into another traffic jam. I thought you were going to direct us!

Well, I wanted to take a break, but I guess someone always needs to be here.

Well, 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.

Oh, you’re right! Let’s see… What do you Zerbies think? Should we widen Main Street so there are two lanes?

Okay, well the best way to do that is to shorten our driveways.

Oh no, no, no! I don’t really want to go!

Well, okay, but how do we make Main Street wider without shortening our driveways?

Oh, I know! How about we move our garages back a bit?

Hey, that’s a good idea, Axel! Let’s try it!

*Zack to the Strut* Are you nearby?

Actually, I’m right over here! I’m stuck in the same traffic that you are!

How about here, Zack?

Yeah, that’s much further back than before! All right, detaching cables…

Wow, now everyone’s garage is further back so our driveways can still be long and Main Street can be really wide!

[Applause]

There’s lots of room for everyone to go back and forth in all directions!

And you know what the best part is, Zack?

What’s that, Axel?

Now you don’t need to stay behind and direct traffic! That means we can go driving again!

Oh yeah! Where should we go?

Hey Zack, Axel! I was gonna drive the leafy trail. Do you want to come?

The leafy trail? Yeah, let’s do it!

All right!

I love the leafy trail!

Yeah, it’s so fun!

*Chase the helicopter* Ready for takeoff!

Well, it’s a beautiful day for flying! Let’s see what there is to see in Zerby Town!

[Music]

Oh, look over there! It’s Mika and Rex!

Hi there, Zerbies! Are you Chase? Need any help with anything?

We’re good for now, thanks!

No problem! Radio if you need me! Goodbye!

Well, maybe you should move your wheels back and forth or something.

Uh, I don’t think so.

Oh, hi Zerbies!

Oh hi, Chase! How’s it going?

I was just wondering if you guys needed anything.

No, we’re fine unless you think you can help Zack out.

No, I don’t think Chase can help me; I just need to get up on my own.

Well, see you later, Zerbies! Bye, Chase!

Why don’t you try moving your wheels?

What, moving my wheels like this?

No, no, no! Not like that! I can only move them one way!

Oh yeah!

I wonder what the Zerbies are up to down at the lake.

[Music]

Well, here’s the lake!

Oh hey, there’s Bob and Flynn! I wonder what they’re doing.

Do you see anything?

Not yet.

Hey Bob, what’s going on?

Hey Chase! Flynn and I are watching this lily pad.

Oh, interesting! But why?

Because we saw a frog here before and we’re waiting for him to come back!

A frog? Wow! Can I watch too?

Sure! Just wait!

Wait for it…

Okay, great!

Waiting…

Do you see anything?

No, not yet. We have to be patient.

I’d love to be patient, but I’m getting a little tired.

Tired? Why?

Yeah, you aren’t moving!

I may not be moving, but I’m still flying! It takes a lot of energy to stay in the air!

Oh yeah, you should land!

Good idea, Bob!

Uh, let’s see… I’ll just land over here.

Okay, whoa!

Oh, here I come!

Oh, whoa!

Oh, hey! I can’t seem to land on the water!

Oh yeah, that’s right! You’re not a water Zerby!

That’s true; you don’t float!

Well, it looks like I’ll have to try try again.

Uh, let’s see… Oh, I know! I’ll go land over there on the shore!

That’s a perfect place for me to rest!

Ah, there! That’s much better!

Uh, what’s happening over there?

No frog yet! I can’t really see anything from here.

Yeah, you’re awfully far away!

Uh, do you think I should try try again?

What do you think?

You’re too far away, Chase! We can’t hear you!

Yeah, why don’t you try try again?

That’s what I was trying to say!

Uh, let’s see… Try trying again!

I wish I could float on the water like you Zerbies!

Oh wait a minute, I know!

What’s that?

I float! Why don’t you let me on, Chase?

Yeah, here I come!

Uh, okay, here we go!

[Music]

Try something else!

Oh, okay! Um, land on my side, maybe?

Oh, landing on the side? That’s…

Yeah, that’s right!

Oh wait a minute, that’s not working!

Chase, I don’t know if this is…

Oh, I guess you’re right! It’s not working!

I guess Zerbies who fly can’t be Zerbies who float!

Yeah, too bad!

But I can float and fly!

No, that’s right!

But how do you do it, Flynn?

I have these floats!

See, I don’t have wheels for landing on the ground like some planes; I have floats and they let me land in the water and float!

I see! I just need to try try again and get floats like yours!

Well, how are you gonna do that, Chase?

I don’t know, but answers are everywhere!

Let’s see… I need something I can lift into the air that will also float…

Hmm, a frog?

Yeah, I don’t think a frog is going to work!

Oh hey, a log! A log floats, but it will be too heavy for me to lift!

Boy, this is tough! I should ask Zack; he’s good at these sorts of things!

Okay, you almost did it! Just try moving your wheels more!

Will it help me flip over?

I think so!

That’s how I got over!

I did turn my wheels back and forth!

*Zack* Chase, listen! I was wondering if I could ask you a question. I want to float on the water, but I need something I can lift.

Hmm, maybe you should try some sticks! You might be able to lift those!

And sticks float!

Yeah, sticks float! That’s a good idea!

Oh yeah, why don’t you try those, Chase?

Oh, good idea! Thanks, Zack!

That would work!

No problem, Chase! Anytime!

All right, try moving your wheels!

Oh, okay! Am I flipped over yet?

No, not yet!

Oh, uh, how about now?

Not yet!

Here you go, Chase! Two very light, very floaty sticks!

Are they light enough for you to fly with them?

Well, let’s see…

Okay, here we go! I’m lifting off!

Oh, hey! They work! They’re perfect! Thanks, Mika!

My pleasure!

Bye! See you later!

Wow, look at those sticks! Do you think they’ll work, Chase?

Well, there’s one way to find out! Here goes!

I can now land in the water! This is great! I’m gonna go land over there!

But Chase, what about the frog?

Yeah, what if the frog comes back?

It’s okay! I’d rather play on the water than wait for a frog!

Come on!

Oh, then wait because we’re coming too!

Yeah, yeah!

[Music]

This is fun! Wait for me, Lily!

Come on, it’s over here!

Hey, Lily!

Yeah, I like driving through the deep forest like this!

You’re like…

Zack, Zack! Are you coming?

Yeah, I’m fine! I landed on my wheels! Come on, let’s go this way!

Come on, Zack!

Wow, look at this moss! It’s super squishy!

Oh yeah, it’s really, really thick moss! I like it!

I love exploring new places! Isn’t this great?

Yeah, it’s so different from the dirt we usually drive on!

I agree! You can even squish it between your tires! See? Watch! Squish, squish, squish, squish!

Oh yeah, that’s fun! Squish, squish, squish, squish!

Hey, I wonder if there are other things we can drive on that’s different from moss!

Let’s look!

Oh, okay!

Oh, look at this moss! It’s extra squishy!

I think this moss is extra squishy because it’s wet!

Oh yes! Look, it’s sort of like a marsh over here!

Yeah, if I hit a tree…

Oh, I hit a tree too!

That’s okay; there’s squishy moss and there’s trees!

Yeah, fine!

Ooh, rocks are very different from us, right?

Yeah!

Okay, come on! We have to get down this hill!

Okay!

Yeah!

Whoa!

Oh, now we’re on the beach! Maybe we should drive on the sand!

We are driving on the sand!

No, soft sand!

Oh, okay! Come on, Lily!

Oh, that does look nice and smooth! Perfect for driving on! Come on, let’s go!

Wait! Come back!

What’s wrong?

The thing about nice, smooth, soft dry sand is that if you stop in it, you’ll sink down!

You will?

Yes, you’ll get stuck if you stop! So keep moving! The sand here is super soft, which makes it excellent fun!

Well, I know how to keep moving! I’m a Zerby after all!

Right! Okay, ready, set…

[Music]

Hold on!

Oh, are you stuck?

No, I’m fine! I just gotta…

Uh, yeah, I think I’m stuck!

Well, we’ve got to try try again!

You bet! We’re Zerbies after all!

But, um, what can we try?

Oh, I know! Try quickly throwing yourself from forward into reverse! That will help you rock a little bit, and then maybe with all the rocking, you can rock right out!

Oh, okay! Here I go! Ready, set… Turbo!

Forward! Reverse!

Forward! Reverse!

Forward! Reverse!

Uh, Lily?

Yeah?

Uh, I don’t think it worked!

I think we have to try try again!

But what will we do this time?

Oh, oh! I know! I’ll push you!

You’re gonna push me?

Yeah, I’ll push you!

Okay, push me, Lily!

[Music]

What happened? Why didn’t you push me?

Oh, wait! I’m trying to figure out how to push you without stopping myself!

Here we go!

Oh, did that work?

No, it didn’t work!

Well, I can’t push you fully because if I do, I’ll stop!

Oh, I’m gonna try try again!

Okay, get a good run at it!

Okay, I’ll go from way back here!

Okay, here I come!

Here it comes! I’m pushing!

Did it work? Did it work?

Ah, no!

Oh, I don’t think I can push you any better than that, Zack! If I push you any harder, I’ll get stuck!

Well, that’s a problem! What should we do now?

I don’t know; I’m all out of ideas, and I’m also getting kind of dizzy!

I’m not getting dizzy at all; I’m just stuck here in the sand!

Hmm… I know what we say when we’re stuck!

Uh, Lily, give me a push?

No! We say answers are everywhere! So I’ll go look around and maybe I can come up with an answer!

All right, I’ll see you soon, Zack!

All right, I’ll just stay here!

Let’s see… Answers are everywhere!

Uh, maybe Sam is saying the answer?

No, Sam’s not the answer!

What about a rock?

Hmm, heavy but not helpful!

Okay, moving on!

Let’s see… Answers are everywhere!

No, no, no!

Oh wait, what was that?

Oh, look at that! It’s like some sort of bark!

Oh, I bet you this would work!

Lily, is that you?

Yeah!

I found it!

You found what?

Look! Look! It’s a plank!

I don’t understand! It’s a piece of bark!

You can use it as a plank!

I don’t get it! How will a plank work?

Well, we’re going to put it under your wheels, and that will give your wheels some traction!

Traction?

Yeah, it will give your wheels something to grip onto!

Oh yeah, that is kind of brilliant!

Hold on! What I’m gonna do is drop it right behind your back wheels!

Okay, here you go! Jumping!

I did it! I did it!

Great! Um, let me try!

All right, the bark!

I can’t quite reach the bark, Lily!

Oh, um, hold on! Let me see if I can bump it closer to your tires!

Okay!

And there!

Okay, let me try it now!

Hold on! Let me see if I can…

Uh, okay!

Now don’t stop, Zack!

Okay, I’m going backwards!

Where should I go?

Down to the water!

Okay!

Backwards through the water!

Wait for me!

When can I stop, Lily?

Not yet! I need to get to the wet sand!

Okay, I can stop on this!

Yeah!

Oh yeah!

Okay, I don’t know about you, Lily, but I’m pretty tired!

Yeah, I’m tired too! I was driving around all day!

Yeah, I was stuck in the sand! Did you see that?

Uh-huh!

Well, I don’t know! What do you want to do now?

Well, I don’t know!

Oh, why don’t we race?

Race? That’s a great idea!

Let’s go
