Stanky and the Straw Man! 🧹🥕

Panic is in the air at Granny Gigglesnort's cottage! 🧙‍♀️ Her magical vegetable patch is destroyed by cheeky birds, and her new Potion of Flatulence is ruined! 😤 Granny scolds her patchwork assistant, Stanky, and builds a terrifying scarecrow to guard the patch.

But Granny's words hurt Stanky's feelings, making him think she believes the scarecrow is better than him at everything! 💔 Upset, Stanky accidentally spills a stinky potion and runs away! 💨

The Snaggletonians search everywhere, but Stanky is nowhere to be found. Granny feels terrible and misses her best helper. Can she find Stanky and explain what she really meant? 🤔

This particular episode was requested by Landon, who has been waiting so patiently – this one’s for you, Landon! We're digging up awesome monsters from old stories. 📖 We'll learn what makes them special ✨, and what they might eat 🍎. Plus, we'll learn new words! 🤓

Imagine a colossal creature perched on a jagged mountain peak. Its scales shimmer in the sunlight, perhaps like polished emeralds or molten gold. Smoke curls from its nostrils, and its enormous, leathery wings are tucked tightly against its powerful body. With a sudden rumble, it unfurls those wings, blocking out the sun, and leaps into the sky. It soars with immense power, circling its lair, watching over its vast treasure hoard hidden deep within the mountain's caves.

Can you guess what it is? ... A Dragon! 🐉

Dragons are legendary creatures found in myths and folklore all over the world. They are often shown as giant, snake-like or lizard-like beasts with wings, sharp claws, and sometimes the ability to breathe fire! 🔥 They are known for their immense power and intelligence, making them truly formidable foes. (If something is formidable, it is very strong and impressive.)

Hi Kids! Get ready for a special episode that's truly By Kids For Kids! ✨ This amazing story was written and performed by the talented kids at the SAFA Community School in Dubai! 🇦🇪 They were part of our School Storytellers Program, where they wrote, recorded, and even created the artwork for this episode! 🎨 That's what we call By Kids!

The Candy Tree

Once upon a time, in a cozy village, lived four curious siblings: Mopsy, Duffy, Tibbin, and Drooble – the Mojily Family! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Their parents warned them to never go near the crooked cabin in the woods, where Twitch the Witch lived. 🧙‍♀️ But, of course, their curiosity got the best of them! 👀

They found the cabin, and right next to it, a magical Candy Tree! 🍬 It was covered in all sorts of yummy, colorful sweets! 🍭 Even though they were warned, their tummies rumbled, and the candy looked too good to resist! Twitch the Witch appeared and made a deal: if they didn't eat the candy, she'd double it! 🤝

But waiting is hard, especially when candy smells so sweet! Drooble just couldn't wait, and with one bite, something strange happened... he started blowing up like a balloon! 🎈 Duffy lost her voice, 🤫 Tibbin turned into a ferret with a violin stuck to his back, 🎻 and Mopsy's hair grew super long! 💇‍♀️ Oh no!

To fix these crazy curses, Twitch tells them they need to find some impossible ingredients for a "changeywangeypangey potion": frog's pajamas, a bear's swim cap, snake's crutches, and cat's tears! 🐸🐻🐍😿 Can these transformed kids work together, face their fears, and find these silly items before sunrise, or will they be stuck like this forever? ⏰

Join the Mojily family on a wild, magical adventure filled with laughter, teamwork, and some very peculiar challenges! 😄 teamwork 💪
