Me too, Let's go. 12 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: It was a rainy day outside as James and Johnty's 13 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: faces were pressed up against the window, very disappointed because 14 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: they were hoping to play outside today because it was 15 00:00:54,680 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: a Saturday. But that rain just messed up all their plans. 16 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: What are we gonna do, James said Johnty. I don't know. 17 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: I was really hoping that we could work more in 18 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: our fort today. This rain completely ruined that plan, said James. 19 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: He was pretty frustrated about that. Have you ever felt 20 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: frustrated that it's raining? Yeah? Me too. Sometimes the rain 21 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 1: can make our plans have to change. And if it's 22 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: raining outside, what's something that you like to do while 23 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: it's inside. Hmmm, maybe build something cool, or play a game, 24 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: or build a fort. There's there's actually a lot of 25 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: things to do inside, maybe with some toys or your imagination. 26 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: But today I think James and Johnty's imagination is going 27 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: to get blown away when one of their toys comes 28 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: to life. Hey, why don't you two guys go check 29 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: up in the attic. There's a whole bunch of old 30 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: stuff up there that, uh, maybe you could have fun with, 31 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: said one of their parents. Ooh, that sounds cool, said Johnty. Ah, 32 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: that's kind of gross up there, said James. There's just 33 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: like a ton of spider webs and like creepy stuff 34 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: up there. Yeah, but it could be fun, said Johnty. 35 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: Let's go. The two walked over down the hallway to 36 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: where the ladder was to get up in the attic. 37 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: They pulled down the ladder from the ceiling and were 38 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: instantly greeted by some dust and dirt and of course cobwebs. 39 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: Oh disgusting, said James. No one's opened this thing in 40 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: like years. Yeah, but there's that probably means there's some 41 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: cool stuff up there. Let's go. John Ty was the 42 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: first one up the ladder. As he pulled his way 43 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 1: up inside the attic, he turned on the light by 44 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: pulling that string by the light bulb and the light 45 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: popped on and he took a look around. Whoa, James, 46 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: You've gotta get up here. There's so much stuff that 47 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: I've never seen before. Come on, okay, said James. He 48 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: held out one of his hands in front of his head, 49 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: trying to wipe all the cobwebs away before it touched 50 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 1: his face. Because that's pretty disgusting if a cobweb touches 51 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: your face, am I right? Yeah, that's pretty gross. Ugh. Well, 52 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: James pushed his way through and finally climbed up to 53 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: the attic, and he was brushing the side of his 54 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: arms and his body with his hands to just get 55 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: all the achy stuff off that might have touched him 56 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: along the way. Oh that is gross. Okay, john Ty, 57 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: what have you found? Show me something cool or else 58 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave. I don't even know where to start, 59 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: said Johnty. There, look at that, there's an old uh, 60 00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, medieval metal costume thing over there. Uh, 61 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: there's a pirate hat here. WHOA, let me see that 62 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: pirate hat, said James. Here you go. Wow, that is 63 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: pretty cool, said James. And look at all these boxes 64 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: over here. I haven't even touched that whole section of 65 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: the attic. And on the other side, dude, we could 66 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: spend all day up here and we could actually maybe 67 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: find a treasure. A treasure, said James. Yeah, this house 68 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: is pretty old, and you just never know what you 69 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: could find up in an attic like this. Very true. 70 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: James and Johnty spent a while looking through all kinds 71 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: of things and then came to a box marked Magical Toys. 72 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: They both looked at each other and knew that they 73 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: had to check out what was inside. Johnty reached his 74 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: hands inside the box and pulled out a smaller box. 75 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: This looks like a puzzle, said James. It's not very magical. WHOA, 76 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: WHOA hold on there? Said it's magical toys. And uh, 77 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: this is the only thing in that box, so it's 78 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: gotta be true. I want to try it out, said 79 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,679 Speaker 1: john Ty. Yeah. I do kind of like doing puzzles 80 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: when it's a rainy day. Yeah, let's go do that, 81 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: said James. James and John Ty had found a magical puzzle, 82 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: or at least that's what it said in the box. 83 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: It was very old. It was hard to tell what 84 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: the picture on the box was, so they would need 85 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: to use all the puzzle pieces to find out. They 86 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: climbed down the ladder and found a table and started 87 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: working on the puzzle. Puzzles can be really fun. I 88 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: actually love doing puzzles. I first start with all the 89 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: edge pieces. You know what the edge pieces are. Yeah, 90 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: when you're doing a puzzle, look for those pieces that 91 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: have a straight edge to it. That means that's the 92 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: outside of the puzzle. And then once you get all 93 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: the way, like all the edge of the puzzle, then 94 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: you can start filling on the middle parts of the 95 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: puzzle and you can find out what picture the puzzle is. 96 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: James and Johnty were both masters at puzzles, and it 97 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: wasn't long before they were almost done with this puzzle. 98 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: All right, just a couple more pieces left, said James. 99 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: Wait a second, looks like there's five holes on the 100 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: puzzle and only four pieces. Wait, look around on the floor. 101 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: Johnty got on his hands and knees and started looking 102 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: around for a missing puzzle piece while James finished putting 103 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: those four pieces into the puzzle. Wow, this is awesome. 104 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: It's like a whole jungle with animals, and this is 105 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: a really cool picture of the puzzle. Hey, Johnny, do 106 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: you see that missing piece down there? Uh? Nothing down here? Uh? 107 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: Is there anything left on the table? Nope, nothing here, 108 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: said James. Hold on, I'll run up to the attic 109 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: and check that box if there's one last piece in there. 110 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: While Johnty ran back up to the attic to check 111 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: that box to see if there was one more piece 112 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: that might have fallen out of the puzzle box, James 113 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: couldn't stop thinking about why that box said magical toys 114 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: on it. Is this puzzle some kind of magic? He 115 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: asked himself. I found it, shouted Johnty from up in 116 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: the attic. Oh, there the last piece. Johnty held it 117 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: triumphantly over his head as he was running down the 118 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: stairs from the attic. All right, I'm gonna put in 119 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: the final piece and then we are done with our puzzle. 120 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: That is definitely the most exciting part of a puzzle, 121 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: the final piece. Whoever gets to put in that last piece. 122 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: That is a very special puzzle, honor that needs to 123 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: be held with great respect. As Johnty put this final 124 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: into the puzzle, they took a step back and admired 125 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: their beautiful work. Wow, that that's a cool puzzle, said James. 126 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: It seriously feels like we could just walk right in 127 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: and step into that jungle right there. It was a 128 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: very large puzzle with a picture of the jungle and 129 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: the waterfall, and it was really cool. Hold on a second, 130 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: said John Ty. When I put that final piece in, 131 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: I swear those leaves started moving. Look they leaned closer 132 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: down to the puzzle that was on their table, and 133 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: that's exactly what was happening. The leaves on the trees 134 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: looked like they were moving. How is that possible, said James. 135 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: This is just a picture. They both couldn't believe it. 136 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: John Ty put his finger down on the puzzle. When 137 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: he touched it, it felt like his finger went through 138 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: and into the puzzle. He quickly pulled it back out. 139 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: Oh whoa, look at that. My fingers soaking wet, like 140 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: I just went to the rainforest. Wait a second, what 141 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: said James Johnty At when he touched the puzzle his 142 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: finger in his hand like went into the puzzle, like 143 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: for real. They both couldn't believe it was this puzzle 144 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: actually magical. There's only one way to find out, said Johnty. Here, 145 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 1: help me lift the puzzle and put it on the ground. 146 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: They carefully grabbed all four corners of the puzzle and 147 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: gently placed it on the ground. They could see that 148 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: water was moving and the trees and leaves were blowing 149 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: in the wind. I'm not going first, said James. Oh, 150 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: I know, just come on in after me. Let's go one, two, three. 151 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: And with that, Jaunty jumped right on top of the 152 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: puzzle and he got sucked inside. Holy smokes. James couldn't 153 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: believe it and followed closely behind. What followed next is 154 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: an amazing adventure A story for another time, but I 155 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: guess James and Johnty really did indeed find a magical 156 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: puzzle in their attic. The end. Great job, you listened 157 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: all the way to the end, and you know what 158 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: time it is.
