Campout Confusion | Work It Out Wombats!®

Zadie persuades Malik, Zeke, and some friends to join her on a fun campout, in this animated story from the PBS KIDS series Work It Out Wombats! But because they don’t take the time to think about what they might need—like a flashlight, blankets, firewood, and of course marshmallows!—the fun quickly becomes unfun. Zadie and her fellow campers then realize what they’ve been missing all along: a plan! They come up with one, make a list of the things they need, and divide up the work. Soon they’re having the camping fun they dreamed about—roasting marshmallows and listening to stories under the stars!
