ADVENTURE STORY AND GAMES
Each chapter is a unique game, with its own mechanic that motivates kids to master important skills. Preschoolers, kindergarten, and elementary school age kids join the Zwuggels in many fun activities. First, they get to know their new friends as they help them to climb hills, feed their little baby monster, or help them with their school work. The next day, the Zwuggels leave for vacation. Time to pack their bags!
In the morning, they make sandwiches and soon fly their airship through a mighty storm and eventually anchor the ship at their destination.
At the beach, they set up chairs, learn to put on sunscreen, relax and build a sandcastle. The calm ends when they find a message in a bottle from a stranded cat! A boat must be found, repaired and painted. They fend off sharks, go fishing, feed dolphins, tickle turtles and find the marooned cat. Will they find the legendary treasure?

WRITTEN IN DELIGHTFUL RHYMES:
“Zwuggels are lovely, joyous things,
they’re friendly, kindly creatures.
They’re really small rather than tall
with funny, charming features.”
