G’day, adventurers! This episode of Hat Business is bringing big yawns, bigger laughs, and one VERY picky koala who just can’t find the perfect place for a nap!

Ruby, Hat, and their fluffy new mate are on a nap-time emergency mission—because if this koala doesn’t find the comfiest, shadiest, wobble-free tree ASAP, she might just throw the world’s sleepiest tantrum!

The Big Sleepy Mission

It all starts when Ruby and Hat are out enjoying the sunshine, slathered in sunscreen (of course—safety first!), when they hear the loudest, most dramatic YAWN coming from above.

Up in the tree is Koala, looking grumpier than a kid who just realized they have to eat their veggies before dessert.

Koala (groggily):

“Ugh, hi Ruby… I’m trying to nap, but this tree? NOT it. Too scratchy, not enough shade, and the wind keeps wobbling my branch like a seesaw!”

But finding the right nap tree? Not as easy as it sounds.

The Science of Sleep (Even for Koalas!)

Along the way, they learn some SUPER cool facts about koalas and their snoozy habits:

✅ Koalas sleep up to 20 hours a day! (That’s even more than a tired parent dreams of!)

✅ They nap high up to stay safe from dingoes and other ground-dwelling mischief-makers.

✅ Eucalyptus leaves make them feel full and sleepy. (Basically, the koala version of a big Sunday lunch.)

✅ Their thick, woolly bottoms help them sit comfortably on branches for hours!

But none of that matters if they can’t find a tree fit for a nap queen.
