Hi! BeeBop here. I received so many great ideas from listeners for pranks to pull on Jonathan, that I decided to put together one big, BeeBop Bonanza prank episode for April Fool's Day. Hope you like it! Make sure you go to the Finn Caspian blog to see Eamon's diagram!

In this week's episode, we return to Finn and rest of the explorers, to find them on a frozen planet, searching for a lost piece of King Huxley's amulet. But things don't go the way they expect, and it's up to Vale to save them all. Yep, that's right, Vale.

In this week's episode, Paige has to crack a code, navigate the back channels of the castle, and keep her new pal Nutkin in check. And when the two friends find themselves in an impossible situation, Paige plays the ultimate trick on the king. But will it pay off? Thanks to everyone who played our anagram puzzle last week. You all are good at puzzles!

In this week's episode, the Explorers Troop 301 take a backseat as Paige takes centerstage. We find out what's been happening to Paige as she's been held prisoner by King Huxley, and it will likely surprise no one that she's taking matters into her own hands. But when she comes across another inhabitant of the castle, will it be a friend or foe? This is by far the most difficult puzzle we've had in the show's run. The solution is an anagram of "SEEK THICKET RIM." The key is really in the -ICK sound. That might help crack it. If your child is too young to read, or just beginning, you can also talk about anagrams in terms of sounds. That may not help solve this puzzle, but it may help with understanding anagrams and how words fit together. One more clue, in white text. Highlight if you want to see it: It's three words, the second word is "three." And after playing around with the letters for a while, you can always use an internet anagram solver (it's not cheating if you've given it an honest try).

From the publisher's feed
The Alien Adventures of Finn Caspian is a serialized science-fiction story for kids (start with Episode 1), told in 15-20 minute episodes for parents to put on when driving around town, or to marathon on road trips, or to bond over before bed.
The story centers on Finn Caspian, an 8-year-old boy aboard The Famous Marlowe 280 Interplanetary Exploratory Space Station. He and his friends Abigail, Elias and Vale are Explorers Troop 301, taking off from the Marlowe to explore uncharted planets, help the occasional alien, and solve a mystery that threatens to destroy the Marlowe. When pressed, we describe it as a "mystery gang" story, sort of like Scooby-Doo in space.
The story is written and performed by Jonathan Messinger, author of Hiding Out, former web editor of Time Out Chicago Kids, and father of two boys. His son Griffin, 7, serves as editor of the story, appearing in episodes to critique, make predictions and express skepticism that his father knows what he's talking about, which also happens to be the way the rest of their relationship works.
Produced in partnership with Gen-Z Media.
