They were so happy to 30 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: see each other. And Elliott said, Boggy, you won't believe this. 31 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: There's a really cool pond down the street and it's 32 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: got fish and all kinds of creatures. You should totally 33 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: come explore with me today. Let's go. And so Boggy 34 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: and Elliott and Elliott's parents ran down the street to 35 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: go play at the park by the pond. It was 36 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: such a cool place with big trees and a pond 37 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: with fish that you could watch, or all kinds of 38 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: other creatures. And so when they got to the pond, 39 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: they started exploring for all kinds of cool things. M 40 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: M Boggy, what do you want to do? Oh, let's 41 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: go look for some frog friends and maybe some turtles too. 42 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: And so Boggy and Elliott started looking in the pond 43 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: as much as they could, and theywards, oh, wait, there's one. 44 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: There's a mommy turtle. Hi, mommy turtle. And the turtle 45 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: came over and said, Oh, I'm so glad you're here. 46 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: Can you help me? Elliott said, yeah, what's what's wrong? 47 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: You see, one of my baby turtles is missing. I'm 48 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: not sure if he's learned how to swim very well, 49 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: and I'm a little worried about him. Can you help 50 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: me find him? Uh? He absolutely. You see, Boggy the 51 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: froggy was a very good swimmer, and so he would 52 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: be really good at swimming around the pond looking for 53 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: this lost baby turtle. And so Boggy said, all right, 54 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna jump in the water and I will look 55 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: as hard as I can to find this baby turtle. Splash. 56 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: Boggy jumped in the water with a big splash, which 57 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: made everybody soaking wet. Elliott was soaked from head to toe, 58 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: but it was worth it. They gotta find this missing 59 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: baby turtle. Have you guys, ever seen a baby turtle before? 60 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: They are so cute and so nice and fun. Wow, 61 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: it's so cool to be a turtle that you have 62 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: a shell that you can hide in, and you are 63 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: really good at swimming. Well, you have to learn how 64 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: to swim. And we're not sure about this baby turtle. 65 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: We gotta find him. And Boggy started swimming around looking 66 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: everywhere for this missing baby turtle. You see frogs. They 67 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: are very good swimmers. Do you know why? Yeah? Yeah, 68 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: you see on their feet, on all of their hands. 69 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: They have special fingers that are like flippers, and they 70 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: swim so fast through the water by pushing and kicking 71 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: their feet and their legs very fast, which makes them 72 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: very good swimmers. And if you've ever tried to catch 73 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: a frog in the water, that is almost impossible because 74 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: they're so fast and so Boggy was swimming as fast 75 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: as he could all over the pond when all of 76 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:43,559 Speaker 1: a sudden, help me, help me, there it is. There's 77 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:48,239 Speaker 1: the baby turtle. He was stuck on a on a log. 78 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: How did you get up there? Elliott couldn't believe what 79 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 1: he saw. This baby turtle had climbed up on a 80 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: log and got stuck because I don't think you knew 81 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: how to swim. But he was whoa, he was surrounded 82 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 1: by water. The log had floated into the middle of 83 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: the lake. Boggy swam over and carefully picked up the 84 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: turtle and brought him back to shore. Oh, thank you 85 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: very much, the mommy turtle said, Wow, Boggy, thank you 86 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,679 Speaker 1: for saving that little baby turtle. Elliott said, oh, absolutely, 87 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: Now let's go play. Elliott and Boggy played the rest 88 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,559 Speaker 1: of the day as they got ready for the big 89 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 1: birthday party with all of Elliott's friends. You see, what 90 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: are some important things that you need for a birthday party? Balloons? Yep? 91 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: What else do you need? Streamers? Oh? And cake? Did 92 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: I hear cake? Yeah? There's all kinds of really important 93 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: things that you need to get ready for a party. 94 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: And Boggy was really good at hanging streamers because he 95 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: could jump really high and hang the balloons and the 96 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: streamers in places that Elliott could definitely not reach. And 97 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: so when it was time, all the friends started to arrive, 98 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: and that meant it was time for Boggy to go 99 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: back to his house by Elliott. Boggy and Elliott gave 100 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: each other another big hug and Elliott was a little 101 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: sad to see Boggy leave, but he knew that next year, 102 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:40,119 Speaker 1: at his birthday, he would see him again. What a fun, 103 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: awesome birthday party that Elliott got to see his best bud, 104 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: Boggy the Froggy, the End.
