Season one, episode fifteen, is titled "Babs the Beaver." In this episode, the narrator tells a story about Babs, a beaver who lives in a peaceful forest surrounded by mountains. Babs is a hardworking animal who is always busy building her dam and collecting sticks. However, despite all of her hard work, Babs often feels incredibly lonely and isolated from the other animals. She longs for friendship but doesn't know how to connect with others.
One day, while Babs is collecting wood, she hears delightful music coming from the other side of the hill. She follows the sound and discovers a group of animals joyfully playing together. As she approaches, she starts to feel nervous and scared, but she really wants to join in the fun.
Feeling very brave, Babs takes a deep breath and tries to introduce herself to the group. At first, the other animals don't seem interested in her and continue to play without acknowledging her presence. To make matters worse, as soon as Babs starts playing, she trips and falls, causing everyone to laugh.
Feeling upset and embarrassed, Babs runs away from the group. She starts to cry and wishes she had never come over to the other side of the hill. That's when the narrator steps in and encourages Babs to use meditation techniques to calm down and collect her thoughts.
As Babs meditates, she realizes that everyone is different, but that doesn't mean she can't make friends. She decides that she won't let the laughter of others bring her down, and instead, she'll try to find a way to impress them with her skills.
The narrator continues the story by teaching the kids some fun yoga poses that Babs uses to impress the other animals and eventually make friends. The poses help Babs stretch and connect with her emotions and provide an excellent opportunity for kids to participate in physical activities with their peers.
Through this episode, children learn the importance of accepting that everyone is different, that challenges are a natural part of life, and that there are always new ways to approach a situation. They also discover the value of using mindfulness strategies, such as yoga and meditation, to help manage their emotions and think more creatively.
Overall, Cosmic Kids Yoga Adventures Season 1 episode 15 – Babs the Beaver, is an excellent option for parents to introduce their kids to physical exercise, storytelling, and mindfulness techniques. Combining these activities in one show provides a perfect opportunity for kids to learn and have fun at the same time.
