Lily and Isla the Flamingo visit Grammy’s house on the beautiful island of Grand Turk, and discover kids playing fun outdoor games with no screens in sight! An animated story about trying new things, perseverance, and the joy of playing outside.
When Lily arrives at Grammy’s house in the Caribbean, the streets are filled with children playing traditional games. No tablets, no YouTube, no Netflix – just kids having fun together! Lily and Isla decide to try the new games, but when Lily struggles at first, Isla the flamingo reminds her: if at first you don’t succeed, try and try again.
Through perseverance, encouragement from new friends, and stepping outside her comfort zone, Lily discovers that the best adventures happen when you keep trying, and when you play outside.
