| Show #1 |
| "Who Am I?" |
| The first Abracadabra episode looks at the
type of person Joey wants to be. Joey meets
lots of people and, after every meeting, he
says he wants to be that person. At first,
he's a magician, then a teacher, then a pirate,
then a costume shop owner. He tries on a lot
of costumes, but he can't seem to find out
who he wants to be. Finally, he realizes that
he is happy to be himself! This show features
an invention of Joey's that ruins Mike's watch,
amazing illusions, a science experiment, and
cool songs like "It Starts With A Dream." |

| Show #2 |
| "Fire Safety" |
| This show takes the Abracadabra kids, Mike, and
Joey, on a road trip to a real-live fire station
to learn about fire safety. You'll learn about how
to "Stop, Drop and Roll" when fire gets on you,
how fires destroy plants and trees, and tales from
Salty the Pirate about fire aboard his ship! The
"911 Rap Song" will teach you when and how to dial
911 in an emergency. |

|
| Show #3 |
| "Making Friends" |
| Twinkle just moved into the neighborhood. She
really wants to make new friends, but she is shy
and isn't sure how to do it. With a little help
from Miss Apple and the "Feel Good" song, Twinkle
and Joey meet each other and become friends. You'll
meet Duk, see Joey make a banana split, learn about
science in a fun way, and watch a magical illusion.
After you hear the "I Want to be Your Friend" song,
you'll be humming it for days! |
