Blinky Sparx wakes up in the bright town, excited for Valentine’s Day. Sparkly bits twinkle on Blinky’s metal suit. The grassy park is full of laughter, and the flowers smell sweet.

A tiny puzzle box sits on a wooden bench, covered in pictures of apples, carrots, and sandwiches. It looks old yet strangely new all at once.

“Valentine’s Day is for friends and family!” says Blinky Sparx. “Let’s have a picnic for everyone. But first, let’s solve this puzzle! It will show us what to bring!”

Inside the box, each puzzle piece has a big, red apple on one side. The apple shines brightly, making tummies grumble for a sweet snack.

Blinky Sparx tries to fit the apple piece into the puzzle. “Apples keep our hearts happy and our bodies strong,” Blinky says. “Let’s remember to pack some!”

Next, Blinky sees puzzle pieces that show carrots. “Carrots help us see well,” Blinky says. But the pieces don’t fit well at first. Blinky flips them around until they snap in place.

Blinky finishes the carrots, then spots the sandwich pieces. “Sandwiches are easy to share!” says Blinky. “But we need two slices just right. Where is the last piece?”

A small sandwich puzzle piece rests under a cheerful balloon. The sandwich has fresh lettuce and soft bread, ready for a tasty bite.
