Description

Whether it’s playing an instrument, riding a bike, writing out your name, or putting the ball in the net, it feels terrific to be good at something. But what do we do if we want to be great? . . . We practice!  Practice means repeating a skill over and over until we get it right, and practicing can feel frustrating, disappointing, or even boring sometimes. But even if we are naturally gifted at an activity, we will only learn how to do our best by practicing.  In this episode, Doc Apocalypso is getting ready to compete in the Tour de Rancid, the greatest unicycle race in the world! But even though the racecourse has lots of new and difficult challenges, Doc hasn’t practiced at all. She’s confident that her natural ability will be enough to win the trophy . . . but co-pilot Scotty isn’t so sure. He’s feeling worried—about the piranha pits, about the field of booger craters, and about how Doc might react if things don’t go the way she’s expecting!Will Doc learn that you have to “work it to win it”—even if you have talent and self-confidence? Will Scotty survive Doc’s skull-crusher slide move? Will anyone ever understand a word that unicycle champion Grand Leather Luda LeCruiser is saying? There’s only one way to find out!For episode extras, have your grown-up get on our mailing list for the Neighborhood’s weekly newsletter with fun questions and activity ideas. And in the meantime, buckle up and climb aboard for today’s twisty, turny, mud-splattered, high-octane, and mutant-frog-filled ride! Ready? Set? GO!
