Two best friends, Oscar and Hedgehog, are dropped off at Summer Camp Island for the first time. They soon discover that it is no ordinary camp, as it's filled with fantastical creatures and magical adventures. On the first day of camp, the camp counselors introduce themselves and explain the rules of the camp. There are three main rules: no humans allowed, no talking to parents or friends from home, and no leaving the island. The campers are told that breaking any of these rules will result in immediate expulsion from the island.
As the day progresses, Oscar and Hedgehog explore the camp and meet some of the other campers. They run into a witch who is collecting magical ingredients, a talking moon who gives them a magic phrase that can open any door, and a group of flying sharks who want to be their friends. They also discover that the campfire has the power to bring inanimate objects to life, including a basketball who becomes their new friend.
As the sun begins to set, the campers are gathered around the campfire for a special ceremony. They light candles and recite a chant together, causing the campfire to transform into a magical portal. The counselors explain that the portal will take them to a magical party on the other side. The party is a magical affair filled with music, dancing and all sorts of fantastical creatures.
The night is filled with adventure as the campers explore the enchanted forest and come across a dragon who is guarding a magical crystal. Oscar and Hedgehog use their new magic phrase to open the door to the crystal and are amazed at its power. They are interrupted by the camp counselors who tell them that they're not supposed to be outside alone at night and bring them back to camp.
The episode ends with the campers settling down to sleep, exhausted but happy from an eventful first day at camp. Oscar and Hedgehog fall asleep talking about their favourite moments of the day, excited for what the rest of the summer has in store.
Overall, "The First Day" is a fun and whimsical introduction to the fantastical world of Summer Camp Island. The episode does a great job of establishing the rules of the camp and introducing some of the magical creatures that inhabit the island. It also sets up an intriguing overarching plot that leaves viewers excited to see what adventures Oscar and Hedgehog will get up to next.
