Ep 13. Madeline's Birthday at the Zoo

Madeline's Birthday at the Zoo is the thirteenth episode of the first season of The New Adventures of Madeline. In this episode, it's Madeline's birthday and she wants to spend it at the zoo. Her friends all have their own ideas of what they want to do, but they eventually decide to go along with Madeline's plan.

At the zoo, Madeline and her friends are having a wonderful time. They see all sorts of animals, from monkeys to elephants, and they learn about the different habitats and diets of each one. Madeline is especially interested in the penguins, and she spends a long time watching them swim and play.

As the day goes on, Madeline's friends start to get a little tired. They've been walking around the zoo for hours, and they're ready for a break. Madeline insists that they keep going, though – she's having too much fun to stop. Finally, they convince her to take a break and have some cake.

They sit down at a picnic table and start cutting the cake. But before they can take a bite, a group of mischievous monkeys swoop down and steal the cake. Madeline is upset, but she knows that it's all part of the fun of being at the zoo. She and her friends decide to go on a scavenger hunt to find more cake.

As they search the zoo for cake, Madeline and her friends encounter all sorts of obstacles. They have to solve puzzles, navigate through mazes, and even use a zip line to cross a river. But they're determined to find that cake, and they don't give up. Finally, they discover a special treasure trove of cakes – enough for everyone to have seconds.

After they've eaten their fill of cake, Madeline and her friends decide to visit the penguins one last time before the zoo closes. But when they get to the penguin exhibit, they find that one of the penguins is missing. They search and search, but they can't find her anywhere. Madeline is worried, but she doesn't give up.

Finally, she has an idea. She remembers a penguin-shaped balloon that she saw earlier in the gift shop. She convinces the shopkeeper to lend it to her, and she uses it to lure the missing penguin back to the exhibit. With the help of her friends, Madeline saves the day.

In the end, Madeline and her friends are exhausted but happy. They've had a wild adventure, but they're all grateful for each other's company and for the chance to celebrate Madeline's birthday in such a special way. And as they leave the zoo and say goodbye to the animals, they know that they'll always remember this wonderful day.
