  The Mellow Submarine: Marina the Mermaid’s Kelp Forest Cave

  Aug 18, 202616 minS2

  Send us a text about this episode! Download and print colouring pages featuring Captain Dave, Larry the Lobster and Marina the Mermaid: Captain Dave and Larry the Lobster follow an invitation from an old friend, Marina the Mermaid, deep into the kelp forest off French Creek Harbour on Vancouver Island’s coast. In this gentle underwater adventure, kids will meet a giant Pacific octopus, a garden of sea anemones, and glowing plankton that make Marina’s family cave feel like a room full of tiny stars. Along the way, Marina teaches the crew about kelp forest ecology - how sea otters keep the balance by eating urchins, how kelp holds onto rocks with a “holdfast” instead of roots, and how every creature, from rockfish to seahorses, has its own job to do. When the crew discovers a tangle of old fishing net drifting into Marina’s anemone garden, Captain Dave and Larry work together with Marina to free it and carry it safely to shore.

  Jul 28, 202615 minS2

  Send us a text about this episode! Download and print colouring pages from Peter and Gracie's Wiggly Tooth Adventure: https://bit.ly/S2EP45ColouringPages Peter has a secret hiding right in the front of his mouth: his very first wiggly tooth! In this episode, Peter and his fluffy American Eskimo dog Gracie spend a few busy days on Vancouver Island wiggling, worrying, and waiting for that tooth to finally come loose. Along the way, Peter feels the mix of big feelings that come with growing up: excitement about becoming a "big kid," a little nervousness about what losing a tooth might feel like, and comfort in knowing Gracie is always right by his side. When the big moment finally arrives during a game of tag in the backyard, Peter discovers that being brave doesn't mean never feeling nervous, it just means doing the thing anyway, with a little help from a best friend.

  The Mellow Submarine: The Haunted Shipwreck

  Jul 21, 202616 minS2

  Send us a text about this episode! Download and print colouring pages featuring Captain Dave and the Mellow Submarine at the haunted shipwreck!: https://bit.ly/S2EP44ColouringPages What's really hiding inside an old sunken ship near Nanaimo? Fog rolls in over the water near Nanaimo, and Larry the Lobster is convinced it's the perfect day for a ghost story. When Captain Dave mentions an old shipwreck resting nearby, Larry's claws start shaking, but curiosity wins out and the Mellow Submarine dives down to take a look. What they find isn't spooky at all: barnacles, purple sea stars, a shy octopus, and a pale, waving creature that looks exactly like a ghost reaching out of a doorway. Captain Dave gently explains that she's a sea anemone, sometimes nicknamed a "ghost flower," and completely harmless. Settle in with your young explorer for a trip beneath the waves near Nanaimo, where the real treasure isn't gold, it's the wonder of life finding a home in the most unexpected places.
