The other level in the episode provides an opportunity for the viewers to learn about social and emotional themes such as the value of honesty, the importance of personal worth and self-esteem, the meaning of friendship, the value of having a healthy life-style, and other pro-social concepts that are developmentally appropriate for this age-group.
