The Flixies teach us one of their most important secrets: variety. And so we learn what the word biodiversity means, and why it is so important that we understand it. Facto learns that there is an exceptional number of different types of animals and plants on Earth, and that each one that is discovered must be named. Grandma Flox surprises the Flixies with a very special piece of embroidery… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The earliest green plants lived in water. Since the conditions on land was very different from life in water, the earliest plants would have simply dried out and would have been unable to stay upright without support of water. Facto learns how plants developed to be able to live on land and which plants were the most successful in propagating on land… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Kwax is in a discussion with Mannie Marsh Frog who is telling him about his ancestral history. He tells Kwax that the ancient amphibian ancestors were big and clumsy and really struggled to move about and live on land. An interesting point regarding amphibians is that they have not yet developed eggs with shells. They therefore return to water to lay their eggs. When the eggs hatch, little tadpoles pop out! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto is dreaming in a nice cosy hollow among the roots of on the Wonder Tree. He waits to learn from the Flixies about the last two groups that successfully managed to master life on land – birds and mammals… and he can’t believe what he hears! The Teacher’s Guide includes:

The Flixies share an entertaining time together in the wetlands. Kwax and Crox, the two water Flixies, stage a play act as though they are some of the ancient lobe-finned fish that first stuck their heads out of water. They crawl about in the muddy waters and wonder it must be like to live on dry land. And so the Flixies learn about all the problems that vertebrates possibly had to face with the transition from life in water to life on land… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Flixies (and of course Facto) find out how wonderfully this ‘spaceship’ Earth is built and how it’s been positioned in space so that different forms of life on Earth can be sustained. They are reminded that the earth is exactly the right distance from the sun and therefore has the precise temperature to support and sustain life – it’s neither too cold nor too hot. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto hears how the thousands of plant and animal species are spread across the different regions of South Africa. They’re almost like giant gardens with different species that have adapted to their conditions. The Flixies are excited about the amazing biodiversity in South Africa and they think that it’s a world record for a small country! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Children love learning with Smart-kids. Bright illustrations, stickers, creative activities and fun- loving characters bring the South African Literacy and Numeracy curriculum to life. Smart-kids is written by experienced South African teachers and contains valuable notes, tips and answers for parents.
Facto has discovered the Flixies! He eavesdrops on their conversations and by doing so, he learns interesting new facts about the earth and nature. In this story we find out where the Flixies live, where they get their information from and how Facto discovered them... The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto listens to what the Flixies have to say about water and learns that it is magical material! No form of life, as we know it, can exist without water. It is an amazing solvent as all food for animals and plants must first be dissolved in water before it can be absorbed. It also used for washing and cleansing and even to cool off. But our supply of usable water is actually extremely limited… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Which was the most successful group in the entire animal kingdom? Facto finds out what contributed to the arthropods’ success and why they deserve the title of the first real land animals. The Flixies play a guessing game and they chat about crustaceans, multipedes, spiders and scorpions and the first animals that could fly – the insects! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Grandpa Flex and Dux discuss the various kinds of reptiles. Flex explains how primitive vertebrates eventually managed to cope with life on land. Certain descendants of the amphibians had the features necessary to make exactly this possible! The Teacher’s Guide includes:

Vertebrates and invertebrates! Hollow animals! Hollow animals, spiny skins, molluscs and worms! Facto finds out that there are mainly two large groups of animals – those which have backbones and skeletons of bone and cartilage and those without. Of the latter group, the simplest ones live in water and we discover the advantages of living in water… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
In this story the Flixies Learn about the winning recipe of the vertebrates – a skeleton of bones and cartilage inside the body, to which muscles could be attached. Vertebrates had unique features that enabled them to adapt to living on land. In this way many niches were filled, thereby opening up the land even further for the other forms of life! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Grandpa Flex tells an interesting story about the first vertebrates, fish, how they moved out of the water and their progress to life and land. Scientist had naturally guessed what the earliest clumsy, ancient fishes must have looked like to be able to crawl out of the water and explore life on land. Fossils were even found to support the scientists’ assumptions – fossils of giant lobe-finned fish, which had fins that looked like primitive legs! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Our friend, the Flixies, learns how important the interaction between plants and animals is. They learn how plants, as they spread over the earth, also serve to keep the soil “stuck” to the earth with their roots. In flowering plants it is particularly the reproduction that developed quite cleverly and the Flixies are impressed with the ways in which plants distribute their seeds. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Flixies are introduced to a new concept, biodiversity – the wide variety of all forms of life. Why must there be so many species? Are all these form of life necessary? Would Spaceship Earth not have worked not as well with only a few types of super-animals and super-plants on Earth? Dux explains to Blox that there are one hundred million different types of plants and animals to which people have already given names – and that there are still places on Earth where there are most probably types of life which must still be discovered and described! Facto simply cannot wait to hear more… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto hears from the Flixies about a narrow strip of land near the coast of the Western and Southern Cape, where the most remarkable biome in the whole world can be found. It’s a biome that is so special and unique that it is considered one of the seven Plant Kingdoms of the world. Grandma Flox prepared special rainbow sosaties for the Flixies to nibble on while they listen to the wonderful story of the Cape Fynbos garden. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
