The Adventures with Frisbee Rob

What might happen when we share something with someone else?

In Adventure 007, What We Pass Along, the Wind carries Frisbee Rob to meet Canadian cookbook author Jean Paré.

What begins with a simple game of catch becomes an adventure about recipes, traditions, and the surprising distance something can travel once we choose to share it.

Together, Rob and Jean discover that a frisbee, a recipe, a story, or an idea can connect people we may never have expected to meet.

An original story about sharing, connection, tradition, and the things we pass from one person to another.

Every adventure begins with a question.

What can a painted line carry besides colour?

In Adventure 006, Where the Lines Lead, the Wind carries Frisbee Rob to meet Alex Janvier, one of Canada’s most influential Indigenous artists.

What begins with a bright red line stretching across the Alberta sky becomes an adventure about art, memory, identity, and the stories that can live inside a painting. Rob follows those lines through Alex’s work, learns about the significance of 287, and eventually finds himself beneath the sweeping colours of Morning Star.

This Adventure is shared in honour of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, remembering the children who never returned home, Survivors of residential schools, and the families and communities whose lives continue to be affected.

An original story about looking more closely, listening to the stories carried through art, and wondering not only where a line is going — but where it came from.

What if something looks like it’s moving… because you’re the one moving?

In Adventure 005, The Sky That Seemed to Move, the Wind carries Frisbee Rob back to meet Nicolaus Copernicus.

What begins with a simple question about the sun and stars turns into an adventure about movement, perspective, and what happens when you look at something familiar from a completely different point of view.

Together, Rob and Copernicus explore the idea that what we see depends partly on where we are — and that sometimes the hardest thing to move isn’t the world around us.

It’s the idea.

An original story about curiosity, astronomy, perspective, and being willing to look again.

What if the secret to doing something well is hidden inside the steps you barely notice?

In Adventure 004, A Pattern for Tomorrow, the Wind carries Rob to meet Ada Lovelace.

What begins with a simple challenge — explaining how to throw a frisbee — turns into a bigger discovery about instructions, patterns, practice, and what happens when the order changes.

Together, Rob and Ada explore the idea that a machine can only follow the instructions it’s given, while imagination is what helps us see what might be possible next.

An original story about curiosity, problem-solving, learning through mistakes, and looking beyond what something can do today.

Every adventure begins with a question.

Why would a frisbee fly when a machine built with wings refuses to leave the ground?

In Adventure 003, the Wind carries Rob to meet Leonardo da Vinci, where sketches, flying machines, failed attempts, and one very familiar red frisbee lead to a new way of thinking about failure.

Together, Rob and Leonardo discover that when something doesn’t work, the important question isn’t always “Did it fail?”

Sometimes it’s:

“What did it teach us?”

An original story about curiosity, experimentation, persistence, and learning from every attempt.

Why does a small stone sink while a much larger frisbee floats?

When Rob’s frisbee lands on a pond, one simple question sends the Wind stirring once again.

This time, Rob travels back to meet Archimedes, where floating frisbees, sinking stones, unexpected splashes, and a few highly successful failures reveal that weight isn’t the whole story.

An original story about curiosity, experimentation, learning from mistakes, and discovering what happens when the water pushes back.

What makes things fall — and what happens when you keep asking why?

In Adventure 001, the Wind carries Frisbee Rob to an orchard, where he meets Isaac Newton and discovers how a falling apple, a flying frisbee, and one very big question can change the way we understand the world.

The Adventures with Frisbee Rob is a series of original stories for curious kids about questions, discovery, perseverance, and the Great Minds who changed the way we understand the world.

Every adventure begins with a question.

Keep wondering.

And let the Wind guide you.

Before the great minds, the experiments, and the adventures, there was a kid with a lot of questions.

In Adventure 000, Frisbee Rob shares where his curiosity began — from frozen playgrounds and questionable experiments to a lifelong fascination with frisbees, flight, and figuring out how things work.

This is where The Adventures with Frisbee Rob begins.
