Speaker 1: to decrease on the screen time. So these stories are

7
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: playing always on a loopen our house, in the car

8
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: or getting ready for bed. Are you guys ready for

9
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: today's story? Me too, Let's go. It was a beautiful

10
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 1: day on a very beautiful island. There were two squirrels

11
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: that lived there, and they really love living there. Do

12
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: you know why a squirrel might want to live somewhere, Well,

13
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: they did have a beautiful view looking out at the ocean. Wow,

14
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: I might want to live there too. But there's something

15
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: in particular about this island that made these squirrels very happy.

16
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: They would climb up the tree and grab these treasures

17
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 1: out of the tallest of the trees. What is it

18
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: that squirrels are looking for when they climb up in trees?

19
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: Do you think they're looking for a new pair of

20
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: pants or acorns? Yes, acorns. These two squirrels chose to

21
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: live on this island because it was full of acorn trees,

22
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: and they loved to gather as many as they can

23
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: and hide them. Yeah, did you know that squirrels like

24
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: to hide their acorns. I don't exactly know why, but

25
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: they lose them all the time. And it's actually good

26
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: because then those acorns grow into trees. But these two

27
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: squirrels were very smart. They were so smart that wherever

28
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: they buried their acorns, and they had a favorite spot,

29
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: they would market with a big X over the hole

30
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: that they You know, they would dig the hole and

31
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: then put their acorns in, then cover it up, but

32
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: in order so that they knew where it was, they

33
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 1: would market with a nice big X. Everything was always

34
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: perfect there until today today something crazy happened. Our saddle.

35
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: It's out over there right on the earth, Flop, yelled Scotty.

36
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: Sammy grabbed his binoculars and looked out over the ocean,

37
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: all those marks where I love that hard or hard world?

38
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: What fop, yelled Scotty. The two squirrels were standing on

39
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 1: top of one of their very tall trees on the beach,

40
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: overlooking the ocean, and in the disk dents they could

41
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: see a pirate ship like a real, real pirate ship.

42
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: And as the ship grew closer and closer to the island,

43
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: the two squirrels became very very afraid. Nur drum still

44
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: on our alcorns. I don't think the squirrels need to

45
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: be worried about the pirates stealing their acorns. That is

46
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: probably not going to happen. As the pirates landed on

47
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: the beach, they said, are mate ease, it is time

48
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: that we look for a treasure. Everybody look for the

49
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: big X, because the treasure map has led us here.

50
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: There must be a treasure on this island. Are wait

51
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: a second. Did the pirate just say that they're looking

52
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: for a big X because that's where their treasure map

53
00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: led them? Oh dear, And do you remember what the

54
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: squirrels hit their acorns and marked it with a Oh dear,

55
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: They didn't choose a circle or a triangle. They just

56
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: had to put an X there. Oh dear. You see,

57
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: these two squirrels can be very protective of their acorns,

58
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: and they immediately got to work. As the pirates started

59
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: walking around the beach, the two squirrels grab some acorns

60
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: and sticks to start throwing at these pirates. Maybe that'll

61
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: scare them away. Ah, who hey, who's throwing sticks at me?

62
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: And ouch? Those acorns alan hurt a pirates get ready,

63
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to stay here long. That's fine. This

64
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: ex fast from it's a fall to stubble grabbler cots, coconuts.

65
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: Those are much bigger than acorns. Maybe will send the

66
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: message to the pirates. As the squirrels prepared to launch

67
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: their coconuts, the pirates were getting closer and closer to

68
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: their ex full from b are. What in the world

69
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: was that? Oh my nogging, I'm seeing oh at oh.

70
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: The two squirrels started jumping around, dancing because it had worked.

71
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: The pirate. That really hurt his head, and I don't

72
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: think he wanted to have another coconut fall on top

73
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: of his head. Our Hey, boss, I think I found

74
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 1: an nex over here. Come on, check it out, r

75
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: and nex let me see, said the captain. The squirrels

76
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: turned around. They were surprised because the except the pirates

77
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: had found it was actually not their ex Holy smokes.

78
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: Wait a second, I forgot to tell you about something else,

79
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: a very important detail. You see, there's another creature that

80
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: lives on this island, and he likes to hide things

81
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: in the ground too, and he marked it with an X.

82
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: It can get a little complicated between the squirrels and

83
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 1: this other guy sometimes they oh, dear, well, the pirates

84
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: have found this other creatures X. And do you know what?

85
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: It was? Hot tiger. As the pirates approached the X

86
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: and grabbed their shovels, the two squirrels Tony the tiger

87
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: crouching down in the grass nearby, hurdler attack them. Oh,

88
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: broll cross the shower, grab the popcorn. The two squirrels

89
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: sat back and started eating some popcorn. I don't know

90
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: where they got the popcorn from, but it's part of

91
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: the story. Are in me the shovel there, Let me try.

92
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: The captain took one scoop of the dirt away from

93
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: the X, and instantly the tiger jumped out from the grass.

94
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: Here everybody run or the pirates took off, running back

95
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: to their pirate ship. Holy smokes, they were completely terrified.

96
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: I would be too, but as Tony the Tiger chased

97
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: them all the way to the ocean, the pirates were

98
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: way too scared to ever return. WHOA, These two squirrels

102
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,640
