Friday: Freddy's pattern game
Freddy the Frog hops onto a lily pad with a grin.
"Ribbit! Today's game has two-step lily pads," he says.
"Solve the first step, then hop to the second."
Oliver straightens his glasses. "And please check each answer with an estimate."
Bennie laughs. "That is a very owl thing to say."
