Kermit want's to solve a Rubik's cube, Quarter 3 #3

Kermit the frog loves challenges, so this week I told him that he should try to solve the Rubik's cube.  As hard as he tried to solve it, he just couldn't do it, but he hasn't given up yet! He is obsessively trying to solve it, and is working on it non-stop!

Kermit Plays Battle Ship, Quarter 3 #2

Today Kermit the Frog and his friend Croaks the Frog decided to play a game of battle ship.  It was a very close game, and at first it looked like Kermit was going to win, but Croaks pulled through and called out F4 to sink Kermit's submarine and win the game.  They both had a fun time, but Kermit wants a rematch!

Kermit works out Quarter 3 #1

Kermit wanted to lose some weight, so he decided to feel the burn and work out today.  After lifting two pound weights and rolling around the eight pound medicine ball he decided to do some push-ups using the perfect push-up stand.  He's training to run the Gate River Run in March and needs to be in tip top shape, but after his work out he was pretty tired.

I liked all of these videos, I thought they were very creative.  I especially liked the last one, I would love to do something like that.  I liked how the second one used pennies to tell a story.
