Through the careful study of land, water, and air maps, Percy the Penguin investigates the different ways to travel on Anchor Island.

World: Little Blue is curious about the different countries and the people who live there. Mommy Blue explains how people from these countries communicate and take care of one another through the global village concept. Come explore our world's resources with Cedric the Starfish. On Anchor Island, Little Blue plays with children from different cultures and has an International Day where each culture's type of dress is celebrated.

Maps: Cedric the Starfish learns how to read a map and why carrying a map is much more convenient than carrying a globe.
