>>> WE ARE IN FOR A TREAT WITH OUR MECHANICS GUEST. YOU KNOW CARLOS PENEVEGA AS PART OF THE BOY BAND AND SHOW BIG TIME RUSH. AND HIS WIFE ALEXA STARRED AS CARMEN CORTEZ IN THE HIT SHOW "THE SPY KIDS" MOVIES. >> NOW THE COUPLE IS DIVING INTO WRITING WITH THEIR NEW CHILDREN'S BOOK "OCEAN'S WORLD." TWO BROTHERS SCOUR THE ISLAND OF MAUI TO FIND THE PERFECT SEASHELL TO GIVE TO THEIR MOM AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT. THEY JOIN US NOW. GOOD MORNING TO YOU. >> GOOD MORNING. >> YOU HAVE 5, 3, 1 KID DOUGHS. OCEAN AND KINGSTON. AND DAUGHTER RIO MAKES AN APPEARANCE. . >> REE-REE. >> HOW DID THIS BOOK COME ABOUT? >> CUTIES. >> THERE THEY ARE. I'M WATCHING TV WITH THEM. I'M IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. I SAID I THINK WE CAN DO THIS BETTER. SO I CAME UP WITH "OCEAN'S WORLD" AS A TV IDEA. WE JUST CAME OUT WITH OUR MEMOIR, "LOVE IS THE POINT." SHE SAID LET'S MAKE IT INTO A BOOK. HERE WE ARE WITH "OCEAN'S WORLD." WE'RE SUPER EXCITED. >> THE THING I LOVE ABOUT IT IS FUN FACTS. YOU ACTUALLY LEARN ABOUT HAWAII AND THE ANIMALS THAT LIVE IN THE OCEAN. IT IS CALLED "OCEAN'S WORLD." HOW DOES YOUR SON FEEL THE CHARACTERS ARE NAMED OCEAN AND KINGSTON? >> OUR KIDS ARE FREAKING OUT. OCEAN IS SO PROUD. HE LOVES LEARNING. WE WANTED TO INCORPORATE LEARNING IN THIS BOOK BUT NOT OVERDO IT. KIDS WANT LITTLE BLIPS AT A TIME. THAT'S WHAT WE DID. WHEN THEY FINALLY GOT THE BOOK, KINGSTON GOES, WHERE'S KINGSTON'S WORLD? . >> WE'RE IN TROUBLE. >> WE HAVE TO DO THAT NEXT. THE SECOND BOOK MIGHT TAKE PLACE ON A CATAMARAN, A BOAT. >> WHICH IS WHERE YOU ARE LIVING. >> WE CURRENTLY LIVE ON A BOAT, YEAH, WITH THREE KIDS. IT SOUNDS CRAZY, BUT IT'S SO MUCH FUN. >> IT SOUNDS LIKE A REALITY SHOW. >> THERE WE GO. . >> IT MIGHT BE A REALITY SHOW. SO YOU TWO ARE DOWN IN FLORIDA LENDING A HAND TO THE SALVATION ARMY TO HELP FOLKS DEVASTATED BY THE HURRICANE THERE. . >> YES. >> AND I HEAR OCEAN HELPED OUT AS WELL. >> OH, YEAH. IT'S REALLY AMAZING. YOU KNOW, MOST PEOPLE THINK SALVATION ARMY AND THEY THINK, WALMART, THE GUY RINGING THE BELL. BUT THEY DO SO MUCH MORE. THEY'RE DOING SO MUCH IN PORT CHARLOTTE. AND GOING THERE AND SEEING, WHAT WAS IT, 7,000 MEALS IN PORT CHARLOTTE EVERY DAY. IT WAS SO SPECIAL TO SEE OCEAN GOING AND SERVING FOR HOURS. >> TEACHING YOUR KIDS TO SERVE AT A YOUNG AGE REALLY INSTILLS SOMETHING IN THEIR HEARTS. THAT'S SOMETHING MY MOM WOULD DO WHEN I WAS YOUNGER. WHEN HE REALIZED THEY DON'T HAVE FOOD, HE WAS ON IT. HE WANTED TO BRING THEM FOOD AND WATER. HOW MANY MEALS DO YOU NEED? AND THEM EXPERIENCING THAT ON HAND IS SO DIFFERENT THAN JUST TELLING YOUR KIDS. >> YOU'RE RIGHT. >> EVEN FOR US, IT CHANGED OUR HEARTS. WE HAD SOME BREAKDOWN MOMENTS MEETING SOME PEOPLE. BECAUSE WHEN YOU SEE IT IN PERSON IT'S VERY IMPACTFUL. >> THAT'S HOW YOU RAISE EMPATHETIC CHILDREN. >> MY KIDS GREW UP WATCHING BOTH OF YOU. BUT ALEXA, "SPY KIDS" ONE OF THE GREAT GROUNDBREAKING MOVIES. THIS FAMILY HAPPENS TO BE OF LATIN BACKGROUND, HISPANIC FAMILY. THAT IS NOT A BIG DEAL. BUT IT WAS A FAMILY MOVIE, LITERALLY >> THAT'S WHAT MADE IT SO SPECIAL. THEY WEREN'T LIKE THIS IS A LATINO FAMILY. NO. THEY WERE JUST TELLING A STORY ABOUT KIDS WHO HAPPENED TO BE HISPANIC. IT WAS FOCUSED ON FAMILY. AND I FELT LIKE SO MANY PEOPLE COULD RELATE TO, YOU KNOW, KIDS -- KIDS WANT TO DO SOMETHING SUPER SPECIAL AND COOL. >> YEAH. >> TO BE A SPY KID WAS ONE OF THE MOST FUN THINGS EVER. TOMORROW YOU HAVE MEGHAN TRAINOR ON. SHE'S MARRIED TO MY BROTHER FROM "SPY KIDS." WE WERE ON THE PHONE LAST NIGHT. AND I SAID PLEASE TELL ME YOU ARE ON THE SHOW TOMORROW. SO WE ARE GOING TO HAVE LUNCH TODAY. >> GUYS, THAT WAS SO FUN. WE ALWAYS WANTED TO PLAY MSG. TO BE HERE, THAT WAS BUCKET LIST. >> IT WAS SOLD OUT. >> AND OUR KIDS. THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM LIKE THIS. THEY SEE DADDY MOWING THE LAWN. >> I'M COOL NOW. THEY WANT TO BE LIKE ME. >> THEY THOUGHT THEY MET IRON MAN. DADDY IS THE COOLEST MAN IN THE WORLD.
