recommended age Unlock co-watching from 3

Small toy cars with faces, including Zack, Axle, Rex and Lily, play in a real forest and sand pit. In the first story they get stuck in a large bowl dug into the sand and try several ways out before circling fast enough to escape. In the second they want to climb a big log, build a sand ramp that keeps collapsing, and learn that wetting the sand makes it firm enough to drive on. Both stories end with the cars succeeding and rolling off toward their next idea.

At a playground sandbox, the toy digger Rigo gets sand stuck in his scoop after an avalanche, so Doc McStuffins takes him to her clinic for a checkup. She runs tests, is briefly stumped, then gets sand in her own eye and, after her mom washes it out, realizes sand in Rigo's joints is the problem. With help from Buddy the dump truck and Squeakers, she clears the sand and his scoop moves freely again. Rigo returns to building, this time being careful with the sand.

The castle is washed away and Sally is heartbroken, until Pete and the others comfort her with the idea that the day lives on as a memory. The episode ends with a song about sandcastles and memories and a plan to come back and build again tomorrow.

Stimulating
recommended age Unlock

Bubbles builds a machine in her attic workshop that copies whatever it points at, testing it first on a green apple and then on a small figure. Pogo climbs in through her window to see what she is doing and ends up duplicated, and soon a crowd of identical Pogos spreads across the neighbourhood playing tricks on Fuse, Zee and Jeff. Bubbles and the original Pogo spend the night tracking the copies down and firing the machine in reverse to remove them. The episode ends back at the workshop window with the neighbourhood quiet again.
