Storybox Playlist: “Go Outside” Stories to Inspire Outdoor Play
The priority of summer should really be “go outside.” So much opens up to us in the summer! We can get up early with the sun, play until late into the evening, go for hikes, camp, play with friends, go swimming, garden, do outdoor art projects — you name it. Once it gets hot, you can get out the hose and have a backyard water park.
This week, we’ve gathered up stories from all over Sparkle land to help inspire you to get outside in one way or another.

Junkyard Tales: The Great Mudball Tournament (Collection)
When Sergeant, the steadfast Junkyard watchdog, tells the other animals that they have been invited to a “mudball” tournament in town, their favorite game no longer feels quite so fun.

Luckily Dizzy, one of the mice and a huge mudball enthusiast, inspires everyone with her authentic love of the game.
This Collection of stories addresses healthy competition, winning and losing, what it is to lead a team, and what it is to play on a team: skills useful for anyone who loves to play games.
