  • Woofie and Friends: Seal — The Snacking Super-Swimmer
    Dec 8 2025

    In this silly and heart-warming episode, Woofie meets a sensitive seal who can dive like a rocket… wiggle like a jelly… and accidentally drop snacks everywhere he goes.

    Together they talk about:

    - why seal bodies are round and perfect for icy water

    - how whiskers work like underwater detectives

    - what makes jokes about bodies sometimes hurt

    - and, why Seal always seems to have an emergency sardine tucked somewhere

    Kids will laugh at the falling fish, snack-slip moments, and belly-flop chaos… and they’ll learn an important message about kindness, feelings, and loving the body you have.

    A gentle, funny ocean adventure for families — with plenty of wiggling and even more snacks.
