[00:03:07]>> Thank you, girl. It's for you. You are my special junior bridesmaid.

[00:04:00]>> The wedding starts soon.

[00:04:03]>> Okay, Jackson, go to the wedding venue.

[00:04:06]I'll handle this. Don't worry.

[00:04:12]>> We're here. What should we do now?

[00:04:15]>> Split up and search.

[00:04:18]Oh no, my badge.

[00:04:22]Wait, I see something under the bed.

[00:04:28]Hey everyone, look. It's the ring.

[00:04:34]So, it was here.

[00:04:38]>> Okay, let me take it to Jackson now.

[00:04:45]We found it under your bed.

[00:04:48]Maybe it fell there last night.

[00:04:53]Oh my. Thank you so much.

[00:04:57]You saved our wedding.

[00:05:05]>> Wow. I have never had this feeling before.

[00:05:14]This atmosphere feels so warm.

[00:05:21]This ring means love and care. I hope they'll be happy together forever.

[00:05:27]>> Luckily, everything was resolved before the wedding.

[00:05:32]>> Just 15 more minutes and this dish will be ready.

[00:05:38]Wow, the kitchen looks like a cooking storm happened.

[00:05:43]>> What happened here?

[00:05:47]>> This kitchen is full of dishes.

[00:05:50]>> Can we eat soon?

[00:05:55]The smell is making me hungry.

[00:05:59]Hi, Mom. We're back. These bags are heavy.

[00:06:06]We bought so many things from the list you gave.

[00:06:15]>> Mom bought more things again.

[00:06:18]That is a lot.

[00:06:21]It's finally here.

[00:06:23]I waited for this.

[00:06:29]>> What's it, Mom?

[00:06:32]It looks so special to you. you. It's a fancy cooking book from a great chef.

[00:06:41]>> So, that explains the long shopping list today.

[00:06:47]>> Tonight, we'll eat like a five-star restaurant, guys.

[00:06:53]>> Oh my. It's not again, >> Mom.

[00:07:04]Why is dinner taking such a long time?

[00:07:09]I want to eat.

[00:07:11]I'm very hungry.

[00:07:15]Good food needs time, care, and beautiful presentation.

[00:07:22]>> Your simple meals always taste best to me, Mom.

[00:07:29]>> Mhm. I think the same. Your everyday food is already great.

[00:07:36]>> Wait, did you all get tired of my usual cooking?

[00:07:41]>> No, Grace, that isn't what we meant.

[00:07:48]>> Then maybe you forgot what happened last time.

[00:07:52]Just 15 more minutes and this dish will be ready.

[00:07:58]Wow, the kitchen looks like a cooking storm happened.

[00:08:03]What happened here?

[00:08:07]>> This kitchen is full of dishes.

[00:08:10]>> Can we eat soon?

[00:08:15]>> The smell is making me hungry.

[00:08:17]>> Please wait. This dish must be finished the right way.

[00:08:27]Here it is. I worked hard on this special meal.

[00:08:33]Oh, my stomach can't wait anymore.

[00:08:44]>> H.

[00:08:46]All right, maybe that's enough for me.

[00:08:50]>> Wow, it's good. I think a dish is enough.

[00:08:56]>> Oh, you two can eat as much as you like.

[00:08:59]There's a lot more.

[00:09:03]All right, Grace. I think Maya and I are full.

[00:09:10]>> That night made me feel sad. And I think I have to practice more. It wasn't bad.

[00:09:19]It just wasn't right for me.

[00:09:23]>> I had eaten with clients and the dish felt too plain. There was also too much work and too much waste that day. Grace, >> so you two weren't rejecting me, only the dish.

[00:09:38]>> Mom, please just cook the way only you can.

[00:09:44]You are a one-of-a-kind chef in this home. I can feel love in your normal food everyday.

[00:09:53]We always value your love even in the simplest meal.

[00:09:59]>> So the simple meals still matter that much to you.

[00:10:03]>> Yes, those meals are the best ones for me.

[00:10:11]>> You don't need a chef book to make us happy.

[00:10:17]>> Maybe I chased something fancy for the wrong reason.

[00:10:22]We love your taste because it feels like home.

[00:10:26]And home food beats five-star food for me.

[00:10:33]>> Thank you for telling me honestly and kindly tonight. Good food is not only fancy. It must fit the people.

[00:10:44]>> Simple things can be the richest things in life. You never need to prove you are special to us. Mom is our only chef and that is more than enough.

[00:10:58]>> All right, then I'll trust my own recipes again.

[00:11:01]>> The zebra herd looks huge from here.

[00:11:06]>> How can that leopard stay up there?

[00:11:08]>> I just want one closer picture of them.

[00:11:14]>> It's coming closer. Please close the window.

[00:11:18]>> Oh no, that was too close for us.

[00:11:21]>> I cannot believe we are really here today.

[00:11:26]>> Wow.

[00:11:28]Oh, >> is this different from a normal zoo?

[00:11:35]>> Animals live more freely here, close to nature.

[00:11:39]>> Wow, that sounds much more exciting already.

[00:11:46]This feels like a real wild adventure.

[00:11:50]>> My friend York will guide us today.

[00:11:56]>> I want to see every animal out there.

[00:11:59]Now, >> welcome friends. Let's begin our safari trip.

[00:12:06]It is great to see you again, York.

[00:12:09]Please get in slowly and stay seated inside.

[00:12:14]Haha.

[00:12:15]>> Come in carefully.

[00:12:18]>> What rules should we follow on the safari?

[00:12:22]>> Stay calm, keep inside, and never scare animals.

[00:12:28]Don't lean out, and keep a safe distance.

[00:12:31]>> This feels more real than I imagined before.

[00:12:37]>> Yes, it feels exciting and a little scary, too. Here you may see animals living naturally today.

[00:12:48]>> Wow, this is the grassland area in the safari.

[00:12:52]>> I feel like anything could appear now.

[00:12:57]Look, there are so many zebras. Which animals migrate in the season here?

[00:13:04]>> Wilderbeast and zebras move for fresh grass and water.

[00:13:08]>> The zebra herd looks huge from here.

[00:13:11]Their stripes help confuse danger and identify each other. Now look over there. Those elephants are massive.

[00:13:25]>> They are so big, but they look gentle, too.

[00:13:32]>> Elephants are social and care deeply for family.

[00:13:39]They really do seem loving and close.

[00:13:43]Huh? How can that leopard stay up there?

[00:13:48]It climbs well like a cat.

[00:13:51]>> Leopards climb trees to rest and protect their food.

[00:13:56]>> Yeah, >> I want a better photo of that leopard.

[00:14:02]>> Stay safe and take photos only from here. Ethan, >> it's beautiful, but still very dangerous.

[00:14:11]>> Those lions are much closer than I expected.

[00:14:16]>> I just want one closer picture of them.

[00:14:22]>> It's coming closer. Please close the window.

[00:14:25]>> Oh no, that was too close for us.

[00:14:30]>> Huh?

[00:14:33]York, please be careful out there.

[00:14:36]>> He knows him and stays calm with him.

[00:14:41]>> I helped its injured leg before so he remembers.

[00:14:45]>> Animals can remember kindness in special ways.

[00:14:49]>> Can we take one photo a little closer?

[00:14:53]>> Yes, but stay careful and keep enough distance. Take it fast, then return to the car.

[00:15:01]That was amazing, but still very scary.

[00:15:04]I didn't know wild animals could remember love.

[00:15:09]>> That was the end of our safari journey, guys.

[00:15:13]>> Thank you, York, for guiding us so well.

[00:15:17]>> These photos will help me remember everything.

[00:15:21]>> Safari feels different because animals live naturally here.

[00:15:27]Respecting animals means giving them space and peace.

[00:15:34]>> Nature is best when humans act with cur.

[00:15:39]>> Look, we are real builders now.

[00:15:43]>> 1 2 3.

[00:15:48]>> I love painting.

[00:15:51]These lights are so hard.

[00:15:54]>> Okay, let me fix it.

[00:15:57]Yeah.

[00:15:59]>> Whoa.

[00:16:06]This tree is very big. It takes a lot of space.

[00:16:13]>> H. What can we do with it?

[00:16:18]>> Let's paint it rainbow colors. Mom, >> no. Let's put many lights on it.

[00:16:27]Those are good ideas.

[00:16:30]But what is the best thing to do?

[00:16:34]>> I have an idea.

[00:16:36]Let's build a treehouse.

[00:16:41]>> A treehouse.

[00:16:43]>> Really?

[00:16:45]So cool.

[00:16:48]Let's build it.

[00:16:51]>> That is a great idea, Ethan.

[00:16:56]Okay team, everything is ready. Let's get to work.

[00:17:04]Look, we are real builders now.

[00:17:09]>> Here are some snacks for my little workers.

[00:17:13]Be careful with the hammer and nails.

[00:17:15]Okay.

[00:17:18]>> Okay, let's check this part first.

[00:17:25]1 2 3 and done.

[00:17:33]>> Here's the next one, Dad.

[00:17:36]>> Thank you, my big boy.

[00:17:40]>> Oh, >> I love painting.

[00:17:45]Green is so pretty.

[00:17:50]You are doing a great job team.

[00:17:54]>> H something is wrong.

[00:17:59]>> That looks funny.

[00:18:03]>> I think it is not straight. Dad.

[00:18:13]>> Ah, you are right.

[00:18:16]Okay, let me fix it.

[00:18:18]Yeah.

[00:18:20]>> Whoa. Ah, >> hold on, Ethan. I got you.

[00:18:26]>> Phew. Thank you, Grace. We are a great team.

[00:18:32]>> These lights are so hard.

[00:18:38]Hey, Leo, look at this. Huh?

[00:18:45]Ouch.

[00:18:47]Oops. Oh no.

[00:18:50]>> You look like a Christmas tree, Leo.

[00:18:55]>> A walking Christmas tree. Come on up.

[00:18:58]Bring the sign and lights.

[00:19:01]>> Let's fix this first. Our treehouse is small, so let's keep it clean.

[00:19:07]>> Yes, Mom. Okay. All done. Now, let's do it together. Ta-da! The new sign is ready.

[00:19:16]>> One more step and we are almost done.

[00:19:20]>> This looks so cozy.

[00:19:25]>> Yeah, a perfect sign for our fort.

[00:19:31]Wow, look at that.

[00:19:37]It is so beautiful. Dad, I love our treehouse.

[00:19:44]We did it together, team.

[00:19:46]>> Let's go inside.

[00:19:54]>> Ooh, look at the birds. Oh, >> they love our house, too.

[00:20:01]>> Yes, we share our happy house with nature.

[00:20:05]>> Remember, kids, the best things take time, patience, and teamwork. Always work together and enjoy every happy moment with your family.

[00:20:19]>> That screen is big. I have never seen one like that.

[00:20:24]>> You all look ready for a mission in space.

[00:20:28]>> Wow. Wow.

[00:20:29]>> I feel like a tiny astronaut flying through space. These machines are so huge.

[00:20:37]That spacecraft looks much bigger than I thought.

[00:20:44]Look at those astronauts in space, Leo.

[00:20:48]They are so cool. I want to try that.

[00:20:53]H, what was inside the popcorn?

[00:20:57]Wait, this looks like a special ticket.

[00:21:01]Wow, it says our family can visit Uniggency, a famous place for space.

[00:21:07]This is amazing. We are really going to UniGenzi. Woohoo!

[00:21:12]>> Wow! What a wonderful surprise.

[00:21:16]>> Okay guys, let's go to UniGens.

[00:21:23]>> The UniGens sign is huge. This place looks great. I already feel excited just standing here outside.

[00:21:33]>> Look over there. That is a rocket launch pad.

[00:21:37]Why does a rocket need such a giant launch pad?

[00:21:41]>> Because the launchpad holds the rocket before it goes up.

[00:21:47]>> Those towers are much bigger than normal ones.

[00:21:50]>> They help carry strong signals and help people talk.

[00:21:56]>> Let's check in and start our tour.

[00:22:02]>> Welcome. Your family can join the tour now.

[00:22:05]I'm too excited. I want to see every room in this place.

[00:22:10]>> This is the control room for space missions.

[00:22:14]>> Kids, speak softly. The engineers are working here. That screen is big. I have never seen one like that.

[00:22:24]You can really see Earth from space on that screen.

[00:22:28]>> Teams here watch orbits and talk to astronauts.

[00:22:33]Everything must be right for a mission to work.

[00:22:38]>> Do people here guide rockets the right way?

[00:22:42]>> Yes. They watch each step and guide the spacecraft.

[00:22:48]>> This room looks like a real science adventure.

[00:22:52]>> Scientists test things and motion in here.

[00:22:56]>> We get to wear astronaut suits. That's awesome.

[00:23:01]You all look ready for a mission in space.

[00:23:06]>> It feels like I am truly floating above Earth.

[00:23:10]>> Wow. Wow. I feel like a tiny astronaut flying through space. Woohoo.

[00:23:18]>> This is the closest we have been to space.

[00:23:23]>> These machines are so huge.

[00:23:27]That spacecraft looks much bigger than I thought.

[00:23:32]>> This satellite is almost ready for its mission.

[00:23:36]>> It is amazing how people build things for space.

[00:23:41]What does a satellite do up there?

[00:23:44]>> Satellites send signals, study weather, and watch Earth.

[00:23:52]>> I will finish drawing this giant satellite later.

[00:23:57]This museum has so many old space treasures. It's Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the moon. And here's his shoes. Right.

[00:24:09]>> Amazing. This moon rock helped scientists learn more about space.

[00:24:15]>> This is Mars, the planet that is most like Earth. Right.

[00:24:19]>> The tour is over. Please head this way.

[00:24:24]>> Hey, look. Those fish look like Nemo.

[00:24:27]Leo, >> this underwater world is more amazing than I thought.

[00:24:34]>> We're now more than 200 m deep.

[00:24:44]>> Hey Maya, if I fall into the sea, I will feel very scared.

[00:24:49]>> Yes. I wonder what is under the sea.

[00:24:53]The ocean is very mysterious.

[00:24:57]>> Hey kids, we have a surprise for you.

[00:25:01]>> Wow.

[00:25:03]What's the surprise, Mom and Dad?

[00:25:06]>> Today, our family will go under the sea in a submarine.

[00:25:13]>> Woohoo! That sounds so great.

[00:25:17]Let's go. I can't wait.

[00:25:26]Welcome. I will take your family to the submarine.

[00:25:31]>> Wow, it is bigger than I thought.

[00:25:36]>> Wow, it looks like a whale.

[00:25:38]>> Please come in and sit down carefully.

[00:25:47]>> This submarine looks very big inside.

[00:25:53]Okay, I am ready to dive.

[00:26:02]>> The submarine is going down into the sea now.

[00:26:06]>> Look outside. We are slowly going under the water.

[00:26:12]>> It feels strange but also exciting.

[00:26:18]We are now about 200 m deep.

[00:26:22]Light can still come here. Many animals live here.

[00:26:26]>> Look at those fish. They move like one big cloud.

[00:26:31]>> The coral reef has many animals and bright colors.

[00:26:40]>> Hey, look. Those fish look like Nemo.

[00:26:44]Leo.

[00:26:46]So many sea animals live together in the reef, right?

[00:26:52]>> This underwater world is more amazing than I thought.

[00:26:58]>> I want to draw everything in my sketchbook.

[00:27:06]>> Oh, I hear a strange sound in my ears.

[00:27:11]That happens because the water pressure changes as we go deeper.

[00:27:17]>> It's getting darker and that feels so cool.

[00:27:21]>> We're now more than 200 m deep.

[00:27:30]>> This part of the ocean feels quiet and mysterious.

[00:27:34]Some animals have very small eyes or no eyes at all. And some can make their own light to live in this deep water.

[00:27:42]>> They look strange, right?

[00:27:46]But they are also very special.

[00:27:50]>> So, can we dive deeper than this, mister?

[00:27:53]>> No, little boy. This the deepest zone we can reach.

[00:27:58]>> Look at those red jellyfish. They are glowing softly.

[00:28:03]Oh, that giant squid looks scary and amazing.

[00:28:08]>> This moment is really amazing. I do not want to miss it.

[00:28:14]>> Please do not use your flash. The light can hurt them.

[00:28:19]>> Oh, I understand. I won't take photos.

[00:28:23]>> Yeah, >> don't worry, Dad. I can draw the sea animals for us.

[00:28:30]We should watch quietly and not disturb them.

[00:28:35]>> We're now slowly back to the surface.

[00:28:38]>> I am glad we saw animals in the deep ocean.

[00:28:47]We're back to the ground.

[00:28:50]>> Thank you so much for helping us today.

[00:28:54]>> Let me take a photo for your family to remember this moment.

[00:29:01]Wow, the photo came out so fast.

[00:29:07]>> Thank you, miss.

[00:29:10]This picture will remind us of a cool trip.

[00:29:14]>> People made this amazing way to explore the sea.

[00:29:20]>> Leo, follow me faster.

[00:29:25]Oh my, an egg.

[00:29:28]Mom. Dad, look. I found it near the lake.

[00:29:35]>> Mom. Dad, is the egg okay now?

[00:29:40]Everyone, it's hatching. Come quickly.

[00:29:48]That's too funny. Leo.

[00:29:56]Oh.

[00:29:57]It is starting to rain quickly.

[00:30:03]Run home, Leo.

[00:30:06]Leo, follow me faster.

[00:30:10]Maya, wait. I see something here.

[00:30:19]Oh my, an egg. H.

[00:30:23]Hurry up, Leo.

[00:30:25]Maya. Huh?

[00:30:28]Stop. Look at this.

[00:30:32]It's not okay. I'll take this home first.

[00:30:38]Oh my. I'm too wet. Oh no. Where's Leo?

[00:30:43]He isn't following me.

[00:30:48]>> You ran too fast, Maya.

[00:30:51]>> Is that an egg?

[00:30:55]Oh my, you are both soaked.

[00:31:00]You two have to go change. You will get sick.

[00:31:05]>> Mom. Dad, look. I found it near the lake.

[00:31:10]>> It needs warmth immediately.

[00:31:14]I will build a small nest.

[00:31:16]>> I'm going to change my clothes and get back.

[00:31:22]We need cotton and a heat lamp. Grace, >> here you are, Ethan.

[00:31:30]>> Mom, Dad, is the egg okay now?

[00:31:35]Wow, your handmade nest is so cool. Dad.

[00:31:40]>> Hi, Grace. We're home.

[00:31:44]>> Let's check our egg.

[00:31:47]Everyone, it's hatching. Come quickly.

[00:31:50]I think it is a duck.

[00:32:00]>> What is it? It looks strange.

[00:32:04]>> It is a baby swan.

[00:32:07]>> A swan.

[00:32:08]>> A swan.

[00:32:10]>> That is amazing.

[00:32:13]>> You will be very beautiful later.

[00:32:23]Look, it is following me. Maybe it thinks I'm the mommy.

[00:32:29]>> Hey, Leo. Next is my turn.

[00:32:34]>> Can I feed baby swan mom? Dad, >> no. Leo, it's mother needs him. Leo.

[00:32:42]>> Leo, we must return it. But it thinks I am its mother.

[00:32:49]>> A mother swan may stop eating if she loses her eggs.

[00:32:54]Let's go to the lake. Okay.

[00:33:02]Look, there are swans here.

[00:33:07]>> Hey Leo, here is the place where you found the egg.

[00:33:12]>> She lost her egg on a rainy day.

[00:33:15]She hasn't eaten anything since that time.

[00:33:19]>> Mom is true. She has been sad.

[00:33:26]>> Go to your real mommy.

[00:33:29]>> Look, she sees the baby.

[00:33:34]>> Oh, maybe she is very happy now.

[00:33:40]That is where he belongs.

[00:33:46]Oh my, it seems father's one.

[00:33:51]That's a family.

[00:33:53]>> Goodbye. Grow up. Well, >> love is not always about keeping someone with you. Sometimes it means letting them go where they belong.
