She-Ra's Trip To Japan - The Golden Tree
Adora, Bow and Glimmer have been to the Mori Art Museum to search the history of the cherry blossom tree, but when they went to viewing room to see a film about how Sakura trees grow and produce beautiful cherry blossom, the guy setting up the film projector made a mistake put this film on. What resulted is a Japanese Noddy, complete with a talking car, a shortened sequence of the car shooting towards the dark wood as Noddy, Big Ears and Tessie Bear scream for help and goblins who cackle like hyenas!
It's Dennis Time - Who In Beanotown Are You?
So you want to become a resident of Beanotown, huh? Check out this quiz on the CBBC website and try your best to be as mischievous as CBBC's very own Horrid Henry or sneaky as Walter! I took the quiz, and I was Rubi, the amazing wheelchair bound tech genius!
My Bedtime Listening Item
I'm starting to get to like my audiobook of 'The Dare Game'. Even though Tracy's swears are bleeped out at the beginning of the book, there are some elements of the audio story that'd really help me get to sleep, such as Cam's story about the big white bird taking her back to its nest and cuddling with her in its softness, quiet and warmth, Tracy's fantasy about flying with her 'brother bats' and hanging by her toes in the black bat cave, almost like the Bluey episode 'Fruit Bat', a remark about being cuddly and Tracy waving her knickers about while jumping on the floorboard yelling "Look at me, everyone, look at me!" The food featured, like the tuna sandwiches, the Smarties, the KitKat and the white chocolates Tracy's mum gives Tracy will leave you hungry if you listen to this story in the daytime. If you own The Dare Game on Audible and have it ready for you to listen on your A, please go to bed to listen to it. Such a soothing listen...even with bleeped out swears!
I.B.F.Fs: Journey To Cloud 9
Let the magic begin! Journey beyond the rainbow to a magical land in the clouds with me and my I.B.F.Fs as we fight giants, try to make wishes come true and experience the unbelievable magic of the sky! I've only done the beginning of the story, but I'll make different versions of the Kipper episode it's inspired by, Clouds, influenced by my favourite Disney movie The Lion King and my favourite show on Nick, Horrid Henry. I'll finish the rest of the story sometime soon! In the meantime, click the video above to see where I got the inspiration from!
What I'd Give To Be A Chinstrapper Penguin....
Chinstrap Penguins love swimming in cool, clear water. What I'd give to be a Chinstrap Penguin, swimming in the water without a care in the world - if Luke, Resus and Cleo joined me, we would live in a tribe consisting of just me, them and their parents. We would be forbidden to go near the sea, but our dreams and wishes are filled with it, and we'd escape to feel the freedom of the sea whenever we wanted. But Planet Earth, the documentary I was watching, said it would be too dangerous and showed blood on these penguins! Not to worry, my fantasies are quite safe anyway.
School Of Roars Activity Time
I haven't done more School Of Roars Activity blog posts, so to make up for it, here are some activities based on old episodes of the show:

Storytime/Six On The Beach
Two dreams in one!
In the first dream, I starred in the Bluey episode 'Library' although I haven't seen it yet. For the first few moments I was talking with Mum, Dad and Uncle Stripe in the living room while the girls were playing. I referred to the parents as 'Mrs. Mum' and 'Mr. Dad' just like how Gumball sometimes refers to his mum and dad in The Amazing World Of Gumball, and I called Uncle Stripe 'Mr. Stripe'. I talked with them over coffee about how the world can't focus on Muffin all the time, only Uncle Stripe and Aunt Trixie can focus on their kids and bring them up.
Later, I joined Bluey, Bingo and Muffin in their library game. I listened to Bluey's story, then I told the girls a story all about a golden goose and a dragon. Y'know, 'cause I'm a great storyteller! When I told them the dragon is going to eat them up, I began to chase the girls around the house, and their game of library quickly turned into Princess Knights. The girls chased me into the bathroom where, in the style of these playful moments with Uncle Stripe and Dad in 'Horsey Ride' and 'The Claw', they knocked me to the ground and playfully wrestled with me. I was laughing hysterically as the girls tickled me, shouting "And the Princess Knights defeated the dragon in the multi-water ocean room!!" and then the parents heard the noise and came upstairs to see what was going on. Mum said I did a great job in playing with the girls, as I know how to gear to children, while Uncle Stripe said it reminded him of when Muffin tried to ride him like a horse at home, not before Socks joined in! Horsey Ride, anyone?
Anyway, onto the next dream....
It was a more peaceful dream this time round, set on the beach. I'd like to describe it as a mix of Bluey episodes 'The Beach' and 'Camping'. There was no one on this tranquil beach besides me, Six and Dr. F. It showed the friendship between me and Six progressing really well, while Dr. F just watched us from further away. Six and I had a great time together - we played beach volleyball (which is just how I imagined the first episode of the new Scream Street to be - Luke, Resus, Cleo, Luella, Doug and Six playing volleyball in the graveyard), tumbled in the sand and tickled each other, relaxed in the peace and quiet and paddled in the sea. It's just how Bluey and Jean-Luc would be friends when they camped on the beach instead of in the bush if 'Camping' was set there. I bet, that if they do make a Scream Street episode where the gang go swimming, Six would be in a really cool swimming costume! And that's how I saw her in the dream - wearing a really cool pink swimming costume. I was wearing my swimming costume, too. Dr. F just remained in her lab coat, 'cause...CBBC animated characters' sartorial tastes aren't that exploratory.
I just want to remind you that this Sunday, the day a new episode of My Pride premieres on Youtube, Scooby Doo: Frankencreepy is airing on Boomerang. Now, whenever I see this movie, I'll think of no one but Six. It seems like she's another major part of my life now, as well as Luella, Doug and the other residents of Scream Street - it's not just Luke, Resus and Cleo that I'll befriend.
Friends, sun, sand and sea
That sounds like a Summer to me!
