Next comes the relay race. The Explorers must run, jump, and hop through a course before passing the baton to the next team member. They start running, but Tico accidentally drops the baton. They realize that they need to communicate with each other before passing the baton. They start calling out each other’s name before passing the baton to ensure they are ready to receive it. With their communication skills, they pass the baton without dropping it and finish the race.
