Synopsis
Papa is getting a little rotund. After his belt breaks at dinner, the family decides to start exercising. Well, normal exercise and yoga don't work, so they go out jogging. They find Walter, Horsie and Colt arguing over some stilts. After things calm down, Colt, Horsie, then Walter each try the stilts and each fall over. Then Papa gets on them and surprises everyone when he shows them just how good he is at walking on stilts. They build a set of their own stilts, and Papa challenges Roobear and Laura to race. Papa wins, and so doesn't have to do any more exercises. After all, they find that stilt walking is the perfect exercise.
