Episode 15: Blue's Backyard Ballgame Bonanza
Steve is all dressed-up in t-shirt and sport pants as we head out for Blue's Backyard Ballgame Bonanza. It's a fun-filled event containing all sorts of different ballgames. We help out our friends with the games by acting as a coach and telling them how they can make the balls do the things they want. We also have fun with Steve's invisi-ball and later skidoo into a stadium where we assist Steve in making sense of an obstacle course filled with ball challenges.
Episode 17: Rhyme Time
In this episode, we help the various characters to come up with words that rhyme with things they're saying. Rhymes are words that have the same ending sound as another word, such as "say" and "hay," or "head" and "bed." Lullabies usually rhyme and so we help Mr. Salt to create one to get Paprika and Cinnamon to sleep. We also skiddoo into a rhyming storybook. There we help out several characters whose stories aren't quite right because one of the things in them doesn't rhyme with the other two things.
