About this episode
A fall day of apple picking, with a little waiting, a little teamwork, and a whole lot of joy. Ella heads to the apple farm with Zara and Hugo. They ride the tractor, pick apples, in all kinds of colors, and save a few to share with someone special. But first… they have to wait. And waiting isn’t easy. With a quick game, a helping hand, and one extra-high apple that takes a big jump to reach, the day turns into something pretty sweet. This episode helps toddlers and preschoolers: Notice what waiting feels like (wiggly, restless, a little frustrated) Try playful strategies, like a game, to make waiting easier Practice problem-solving when something’s out of reach (literally!) See how sharing what they picked can feel just as good as picking it A reminder that joy isn’t always in the plan, it’s often in the little moments in between.
