In season 1 episode 1, titled "Courage," Kari and Barry explore what it means to be courageous and encourage viewers to find courage within themselves.
The episode begins with Kari and Barry introducing the concept of courage, explaining that it is not just about being fearless but also about facing your fears and doing what is right even when it is difficult. They then introduce the Good Deed Tree, a magical tree that grows when someone does something kind or courageous. Kari and Barry explain that they will be adding magic acorns to the tree throughout the episode as they witness acts of courage.
The first story follows a character named Solomon, who is afraid of the dark. Kari and Barry explain that many people have fears, and that it takes courage to face them. Solomon's fear of the dark is preventing him from sleeping at night, so Kari and Barry help him come up with ways to face his fear. They try turning on a night light, singing a song, and even pretending to be brave by shouting "courage" before turning off the lights. Eventually, Solomon is able to fall asleep with the lights off, and Kari and Barry add a magic acorn to the Good Deed Tree.
The next story follows a character named Maya, who is afraid of getting on a scooter. Maya's friends are all riding scooters, but she is too scared to try. Kari and Barry explain that it takes courage to try new things, and help Maya come up with a plan to face her fear. They practice balancing on a line and then try riding a scooter with one foot on the ground. Eventually, Maya is able to ride the scooter on her own, and Kari and Barry add another magic acorn to the Good Deed Tree.
The third story follows a character named Max, who is afraid of swimming. Kari and Barry explain that it takes courage to try new things, especially when they involve water. Max's friends are all swimming in the pool, but he is too scared to try. Kari and Barry help Max learn to float by using a noodle, and then encourage him to try swimming with the noodle. With their support, Max is able to swim on his own, and Kari and Barry add a third magic acorn to the Good Deed Tree.
The episode concludes with Kari and Barry encouraging viewers to find courage within themselves and do something brave or kind. They remind viewers that even small acts of courage can make a big difference, and invite them to share their acts of courage with the Treasure Champs team.
