Alma's Way

Alma’s great at beatboxing—so good that she thinks she doesn’t need to practice. She finds out the hard way that practice makes perfect when she ruins the performance. Then, Alma wants to be a “super sister” to Junior, just like Tía Gloria is to Mami. But when Junior doesn’t seem happy with her not-so-super deeds, Alma must figure out what being a “super sister” really means.

When Alma and Rafia find a bird's nest in the park’s basketball hoop, they recruit their friends to help keep it safe. But when it’s time to go home, Alma tries to think of a way to protect the nest, even when her friends aren’t around. Then, after cleaning up the playground, Alma and her friends go undercover and follow the litter clues to find out where the trash is coming from.

When Chacho chews holes in the socks that Alma was planning to donate for the Community Center’s Bomba Drum Fundraiser, she has to figure out a way to transform the holey mess into a new success. Then, Alma offers to record Papi’s animal show while he’s busy and recruits her friends and their talented pets to help. But Alma keeps messing up on the camera. Will this week’s show be cancelled?

Junior really wants to find a book about a Puerto Rican boy, dinosaurs, and the Bronx, but Alma and André can’t find any stories that have all three at the bookstore. Luckily Alma has an idea: what if they help Junior make his own book? Then, Alma and Eddie want to surprise Nestor and Gloria for their anniversary, but when Gloria gets called into work unexpectedly, their plans might be a bust!

Mami surprises Alma with a pair of brand-new soccer cleats. Now Alma must choose: play her best soccer game and get her AMAZING new shoes dirty or protect her cleats by staying on the sidelines. Then, stuck inside on a beautiful day, Alma, Rafia and André make up a new game called Star Ball. It’s a BLAST at first, but her friends don’t want to play anymore when Alma keeps changing the rules.

It’s Alma’s favorite holiday, Noche Buena (or Christmas Eve), and she can’t wait to celebrate her family’s yearly traditions. But when the traditions go wrong, can she still have a fun Noche Buena? Then, Alma finds the Christmas gift she gave Junior is still under the tree. She decides to skip playtime with her brother and make him a do-over gift before the big Three Kings Day parade!
