Hi, Ricky here live from the Newsround studio

0:00:060:00:08

this Friday afternoon.

0:00:080:00:09

Coming up in the next few minutes...

0:00:090:00:13

The lost teddy bear that found its way home.

0:00:130:00:15

The summer camp with a difference.

0:00:150:00:18

And the spectacular sights in store for us this weekend.

0:00:180:00:28

If you've got a younger brother or sister, then the chances

0:00:330:00:36

are they have one of these - a stuffed toy.

0:00:360:00:39

Well, one boy in Texas, America, lost his at an airport

0:00:390:00:42

and was devastated.

0:00:420:00:43

Little did he know someone was keeping him safe.

0:00:430:00:48

This is the young man.

0:00:480:00:50

Look at that bear.

0:00:500:00:53

This is four-year-old Luke and his teddy bear -

0:00:530:00:55

and his name is Teddy Bear.

0:00:550:00:58

Here they are, reunited at last at an airport

0:00:580:01:00

in Dallas, Texas, in America.

0:01:000:01:03

So, how did Luke and Teddy Bear get separated?

0:01:030:01:07

Luke was on his way home from visiting his

0:01:070:01:09

grandparents in Colorado.

0:01:090:01:10

It seems like Teddy Bear might have fallen from a bench when the family

0:01:100:01:14

were waiting for their car from the airport.

0:01:140:01:16

And that's when he became lost.

0:01:160:01:19

Luke and his family were really upset.

0:01:190:01:21

I mean, he's lost his favourite toy.

0:01:210:01:23

They searched for days.

0:01:230:01:25

And Teddy Bear was missing for a whole week.

0:01:250:01:28

Luke's mum put loads of posts on social media,

0:01:280:01:31

asking if anyone had seen the beloved bear.

0:01:310:01:35

And then the airport got in touch.

0:01:350:01:38

Teddy Bear was found!

0:01:380:01:41

He'd been picked up by an employee and put in a safe place in the staff

0:01:410:01:45

room to wait for his owner.

0:01:450:01:47

While waiting, he went on quite an adventure

0:01:470:01:49

around the airport - lucky thing.

0:01:490:01:52

So, Teddy Bear is back where he belongs at home.

0:01:520:01:55

And hopefully, there will be no more airport adventures -

0:01:550:01:57

without Luke, of course.

0:01:570:02:02

Next, climbing ladders, putting out fire and helping

0:02:020:02:05

to rescue people are just some of the duties of a firefighter.

0:02:050:02:08

But in many countries around the world, more men do

0:02:080:02:11

this job than women.

0:02:110:02:12

In America, one summer camp with a difference

0:02:120:02:14

is aiming to change that.

0:02:140:02:15

Check this out.

0:02:150:02:18

Welcome to Camp Heat.

0:02:180:02:21

Do not let anybody tell you that a woman cannot do this job.

0:02:210:02:24

There are more than 1.1 million firefighters in America,

0:02:240:02:29

but only 7% of these are women.

0:02:290:02:33

That is why Arlington County Fire Department started Camp Heat.

0:02:330:02:38

Little boys play with fire trucks.

0:02:380:02:41

They get introduced to it naturally, but girls just don't.

0:02:410:02:46

So we decided as a group that having a camp for young women would be

0:02:460:02:50

a good idea to expose them to what we do.

0:02:500:02:53

It runs in the summer for teenage girls.

0:02:530:02:58

They learn how to give emergency first aid and use equipment

0:02:580:03:03

such as the jaws of life, which are used to cut into cars

0:03:030:03:06

in rescue operations.

0:03:060:03:07

It's all about technique, it's not about strength.

0:03:070:03:10

We wanted to make sure they got to practise

0:03:100:03:15

with our our real tools, in our real gear, carrying real

0:03:150:03:18

equipment to see that it is totally doable with the right technique

0:03:180:03:21

and right training.

0:03:210:03:22

They taught me how much the hoses weigh, how hard it is,

0:03:220:03:25

how hot these suits are.

0:03:250:03:27

What do the girls think of their training?

0:03:270:03:30

I wanted to prove that women are equally as strong,

0:03:300:03:34

both mentally and physically, as men.

0:03:340:03:36

Knowing you can save someone from a nine-storey building

0:03:360:03:39

and you can save someone who can't help themselves.

0:03:390:03:41

I think that's really rewarding.

0:03:410:03:45

I really want to go out and help save people,

0:03:450:03:47

save people's lives.

0:03:470:03:50

I realised I can do it, she can do it.

0:03:500:03:52

It's nice.

0:03:520:03:53

Next, if you look up into the night sky this weekend,

0:03:530:03:57

you might see some spectacular sights and that's because there's

0:03:570:04:01

going to be not one, not two, but three meteor showers.

0:04:010:04:05

The Perseid meteor shower, which happens every year,

0:04:050:04:07

should be visible over the next few nights and it gives stargazers

0:04:070:04:10

the chance to spot shooting stars.

0:04:100:04:12

It's going to be overlapped by the Delta Aquarids

0:04:120:04:16

and the Alpha Capricornids meteor showers, which are known

0:04:160:04:18

for their bright fireballs in the night skies.

0:04:180:04:22

It is thought they will be at their brightest tonight,

0:04:220:04:26

with as many as ten to 20 shooting stars dashing across the night sky.

0:04:260:04:29

Meteor showers are caused by debris from comets entering Earth's

0:04:290:04:31

atmosphere at high speeds.

0:04:310:04:37

That's all from me, Newsround's back over the weekend.

0:04:570:04:59

Have a great weekend.

0:04:590:04:59

Hello, everybody.

0:05:040:05:05

My favourite TV programme on CBBC

0:05:050:05:06

is Whoops I Missed The Bus,

0:05:060:05:08

because it's such a funny TV show,

0:05:080:05:10

and I love all the bloggers

0:05:100:05:13

and the What You Thinking, Pet? part makes me laugh.
