Join the magical “Sparks” Gabi and Rafael as they teach a lesson in hospitality to the Plony family members, who are too distracted to hear the doorbell ringing when their cousin arrives from Israel. Once Yasmin is inside, Papa, Mama, Lila, and Ben continue to play video games and dance to loud music, forgetting about their guest. The Sparks find a way to fix the situation once and for all – by helping the family help themselves!
Follow-Up Questions
- How do you think Yasmin felt when her cousins were not paying attention to her?
