When we were at the beach today, a little crab came by.
“Come scuttle with me,” said the crab. “Scuttling’s fun, let’s try!”
Whirl and wiggle! Whirl and wiggle!
Let’s SCUTTLE and SNAP to the Jellyfish Jiggle!
Learn to move like your seaside friends at the beach and under water! Dive with the penguin, rock the pelican’s boat and wiggle, jiggle and giggle with the jellyfish! Everyone can join the fun in or out of the water!
Features a main character with a prosthetic limb showing all the fun exercise moves.
