My 3 year old boy got 36 / 40! Go Jack Dunning!
I love the Octonauts, but some of those questions were hard!
Archer Lawrance Got 37 outof 40. who got the Dashioe the dog one correct?
Ok these questions aren’t the best. Tweak is a mechanic however Dashi is programer in adition to photogrpher. The octopod has fallen into a ravine more then once. The term engineer is complicated and technically both girls could fall into that in diffrent branches. A good example of this is in gulper eel episode where they work together on the octomaxsuit. Which is kind of cool that girls aren’t suoer girly over done girl jobs on octopod. Their are now the gup s and soon to be gup o so now 8 almost 9.
Not all these are accurate. I didn’t even bother keeping score when realized some miss information in this dad’s octonauts file.
