Once upon a time, there was a very popular TV show called Squid Game. It was a show about a special contest where people who needed money played dangerous games for a chance to win a lot of money. The show became a big hit all over the world.

Now, Netflix, the company that made Squid Game, has made a new show called Squid Game: The Challenge. It's a game show based on the original show. In the new show, contestants have to play the same dangerous games as the characters in the original show.

Two people from Ireland, Eric Roberts and Mikie Bowe, were chosen to be on the show. Eric is famous for making funny videos on TikTok. He said he has been getting a lot of attention since people found out he was on the show.

The first five episodes of the new show are already on Netflix, and more episodes will come out soon. The first episode is about a game called Red Light, Green Light. Contestants have to run and freeze when the music stops. If they move, they are out of the game.

Eric said it was really tough to play the games. He had to stand still for a long time in the cold, and it was very hard. But he made it through and is excited for people to watch the show and see how far he gets.

If you want to watch Squid Game: The Challenge, you can find it on Netflix. And if you want to see Eric's funny videos, you can follow him on TikTok.

My name is Aoife and I am 8 years old. I live in a small town called Dingle in Ireland. I want to tell you about an average day in my life. Today was a really fun day because we had a special day at school called "Exploring Games and Challenges." First, we had a science challenge where we had to build a tall tower using only straws and tape. It was really tricky, but my team and I worked together and built the tallest tower in the class! After that, we had a math game where we had to solve puzzles and riddles. I love math, so I had so much fun doing that. I even won a prize for solving the hardest riddle! During lunchtime, we had a "Treasure Hunt" in the school garden. We had to follow clues and search for hidden treasures. It was like being a real-life explorer! In the afternoon, we had a sports challenge. We played different games like relay races and obstacle courses. I love being active and playing sports, so it was a blast! At the end of the day, we had an art challenge. We had to draw something that represented our favorite part of the day. I drew a picture of my team building the tower because it was the most exciting moment for me. Today was such a great day. I loved exploring games and challenges. It made me feel smart, creative, and strong. I can't wait for more fun days like this at school!
