Send us Fan Mail Hey there, creature catchers! Need a quick treat to keep you entertained between episodes? Welcome to PODSNACK!, your bite-sized adventure that’s full of fun! In this special WORLD Edition series, we are going on a giant trip around the globe! We will meet amazing, unbelievable creatures, learn a little bit about world cultures, try out some of their language, and pick up interesting vocab along the way. 🇺🇾 Today's Snack: The Rolling Hills of Uruguay! We are traveling to the beautiful country of Uruguay in South America, a place famous for its green hills and brave cowboys called gauchos! We even learned a greeting from the Charrúa people: “Mîa!” (Mee-ah!) which means “Hello!” 🌟 The Feature: The Lobizón! Today, we meet a howling hairball known as the Lobizón! This creature is a bit like a werewolf—it’s a human who transforms into a giant, scruffy black dog when the moon is full. • The Goal: These stories are cautionary tales—which is just a fancy way of saying they are stories meant to warn people about dangers or bad behaviors! The legend of the Lobizón kept people safely indoors at night. • Survival Tip: If you ever run into a Lobizón, don't panic! Deep down, he’s still a doggy. Pull out a squeaky rubber bone, throw it as far as you can, and yell "FETCH!" While he’s chasing the toy, you’ll have plenty of time to climb a tree! Try our new Wise Kids Academy! Read along, meet your favourite Magimajura characters, take Quiz Quests, discover amazing facts, get creative with Mad Libs, and build wisdom, imagination, empathy and critical thinking along the way.
