For the last day of the school year before the winter break in HOLIDAY SPECIAL, the kids take a trip to Murph's (Dolly Parton) recycling plant. The kids learn how recycling helps the earth!

The kids are IN THE RAINFOREST on Earth Day to discover how mud puddles, cacao pods, and bugs play an important part in the Web of Life! On a freezing fall day, the kids warm up to some hot cocoa. Arnold's cocoa gets cold, and soon, the kids go on a frosty field trip IN THE ARCTIC! Dorothy Ann struggles to tell a story in front of a live audience, so they visit glaciers and learn exactly what TALES GLACIERS TELL.
