oh god. i still just think it's so curious that you have to put those in and not put any decent lighting in that room? yeah? what'r'ya lookin' at? oh you are. look who i brought. blankie. blankie. strawberries. the purple crayon book. yes. one evening after thinking it over for some time harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight. there wasn't any moon and harold needed a moon for a walk in the moonlight. and he needed something to walk on. he made a long straight path so he wouldn't get lost. and he set off on his walk taking his big purple crayon with him? but he didn't seem to be getting anywhere on the long straight path so he left the path for a shortcut across a field. and the moon went with him. the shortcut led right to where harold thought a forest ought to be? he didn't want to get lost in the woods so he made a very small forest? how many trees are in this forest? yeah just one tree. yeah just one? it turned out to be an apple tree? the apples would be very tasty when they got red howard thought. uh oh. he put a frightening dragon under the tree to guard the apples. he is going to scare harold. it was a terribly frightening dragon. it frightened harold and he backed away. his hand holding the purple crayon shook? suddenly he realized what was happening but by then harold was over his head in an ocean. he drew water. but he came up thinking fast and in no time he was climbing aboard a trim little boat? he quickly set sail? ooh boy that's annoying huh? op it's gone? i think it was a car alarm. what do you think? it was a car. yeah i think so. he quickly set sail and the moon sailed with him. after he had sailed long enough harold made land without too much trouble. he stepped ashore on the beach wondering where he was. the sandy beach reminded harold of picnics and the thought of picnics made him hungry. so he laid out a nice simple picnic lunch? there was nothing but. pie. but there were all nine kinds of pie that harold liked best. when harold finished his picnic there was quite a lot left? he hated to see so much delicious pie go to waste. so he left a very hungry. moose and a deserving? porcupine to finish it up. and off he went looking for a hill to climb to see where he was. he knew that the higher up he went the farther he could see. oh he's climbing up the mountain to see if he can find his bedroom. oh he is. let's see. he hoped he could see the bedroom from the top of the mountain? oh? he looked down over the other side and he fell off. there wasn't any other side to the mountain. he was falling into? thin air. but luckily he kept his wits and his purple crayon? and he made a hot air balloon and grabbed on. he made a basket under the balloon big enough to stand in. he had a fine view from the balloon but he couldn't see his window. he couldn't even see his house? so he made a house with windows and landed the balloon on the grass in the front yard. none of the windows was his window though. he tried to think where his window ought to be? oh it must be in back of the house i bet it's back behind the house right. yeah. he made some more windows. he made a big building full of windows. he made lots of buildings full of windows. he made a whole city of windows. but none of the windows was his window. and he couldn't think where it might be. he decided to ask a policeman. the policeman pointed the way harold was going anyway but harold thanked him. and he walked along with the moon wishing he was in his room and in his bed. then. he remembered. he remembered where his bedroom window was when there was a moon. it was always right around the moon. yeah the window is right around the moon. then harold made his bed and got in and drew up the covers. the purple crayon dropped on the floor and harold? dropped off to sleep. very good sweetie? very good? yeah you did. yeah. where did you watch harold? harold was on tv? really. in our house. oh. yes. there we go now he's on the ground. i'm not sure where he is now?

but franklin had a problem? what was franklin's problem? right? he couldn't ride his bike without his training wheels right? right. in the spring all of franklin's friends had training wheels on their bikes? beaver was the brave one? she took her extra wheels off first? she practiced and practiced and then went to the park to show off? look at me she said i can ride my bike all by myself. franklin watched beaver ride around in circles. who's that? rabbit and who's that? bear? right? it wasn't long before beaver could signal with one paw and hold on to the handle bar with the other. soon everyone but franklin could ride without training wheels? we're going on a picnic said bear come on. franklin was worried that his friends would make fun of his training wheels. so he lied and said i'm not hungry and went home to eat lunch alone? aw? poor franklin? what's franklin doing in this picture? what's he doing here? what's he doing there? is he on the slide. he's on the swing you're right? afterwards franklin asked his mother to help take the training wheels off his bike. he wanted to ride all by himself. he sat on his bike and his mother gave him a push. franklin wibbled and wobbled and teetered and tottered and fell into the flower bed? i can't do it he said i'm never riding this bike again. aw. poor franklin. for the rest of the week franklin felt left out. he watched as his friends rode off without him. they were becoming great explorers on their bikes? what are they doing? what kind of ice cream are they eating? you don't know. what do you think. what's your favorite kind of ice cream? really. do you like vanilla? you like chocolate ice cream. mm. in an ice cream cone that sounds great. you like strawberry too. mm what color is strawberry ice cream? orange i think strawberry ice cream is pink? see? see i think maybe that's strawberry. that's strawberry right. yeah i don't have any though? i'm sorry to say! maybe we can go later to get ice cream what do you think? okay? on saturday franklin's friends zoomed by his house? that looks like fun said franklin's mother? i can't ride without my training wheels groaned franklin? aw franklin's pretty sad? did you give it your best effort asked his mother? well said franklin? hm let's see? it looks like some little schmutz maybe from your granola bar? well? your granola bar has a raspberry center so maybe that's what it was. what sweetie? you wanna sip? yes? ah. that tastes delicious right? strawberry water? you're silly. you gave me a kiss on the head. you know what. i love you. i love your kisses? are you hiding. yes. yes i can? well said franklin maybe i can try one more time? franklin sat on his bike it's tippy he said. his mother held on to the seat. try it i won't let you go until you tell me to. franklin pedaled while his mother guided the bike from behind. he felt unsteady and very unsure. i'm going to fall he said and stopped pedaling. riding a bike is difficult said his mother. but you can't give up just because it's frustrating? it's too hard for me said franklin? it was easy for my friends? do you think everything comes easy for them she asked? franklin had to think about that? oh you're right he is riding his bicycle? franklin went to the park? he saw beaver struggling to swing on the monkey bars? each time she got to the third rung she fell into the sand below. no beaver said bear do it like this it's easy. easy for you said beaver she tried once more and fell again. maybe tomorrow she grumbled. franklin remembered when badger learned to swim. she was afraid to put her head underwater? it's easy said franklin just do it. badger sputtered and cried. it took her a long time to feel good in the water? now she could swim from one end of the pond to the other. where is snail? i don't think snail is in this book. snail's in the other book. snail's at the museum right. in the other book. maybe that would help me stop coughing what do you think. let's look over. here. you wanna pretend to eat one? let's see. pretend to eat one. mommy's gonna have one of these. yeah? but honey you can't really eat it because it's dangerous for a little girl to eat hard candy. right. maybe you'd like something else to eat? can you pretend with the wrapper on then? it's gonna make your hand all sticky. really. no. no. hello. really. hm? okay. in my mouth? can i get you something else to eat? hm? there's a blue one. looks like a blue wrapper to me. mm hm. you have to untwist the top first sweetie. mhm other way. yep just like that. wait. just like that like put your hand on it? hm like that. turn that around. just like this. good job sweetie look. just a twist like that. right? just like that. exactly. mhm. maybe you don't wanna hold it. maybe you wanna put it back in the wrapper. hm? your hand's gonna get all sticky. hm don't eat it. good pretending. franklin thought about the first time fox played baseball. he couldn't hit the ball at all. but he tried and tried until one day fox got a home run. who's that? porcupine. just then porcupine came by. she moved very slowly. she pointed to the pads on her knees wrists and elbows. they make me feel funny she said but they keep me safe? that's it cried franklin and hurried home! oh i think porcupine's nice now. don't you think porcupine's nice? the bear. aha. no the bear's franklin's friend! they're all nice animals. mhm. yep porcupine's nice. badger is nice. and bear is nice and franklin is nice. mm that's not badger who is that. is that badger. let me see. oh beaver sorry that's beaver. beaver. what's beaver doing? what's beaver playing with? is he on the swing? he's in the sandbox wow neat? that's great? franklin put on padding? he lined the walk with old pillows? i'm ready to try again franklin told his mother? now i won't worry if i fall. franklin sat on his bike and his mother held on to the seat. franklin wibbled and wobbled and teetered and tottered and fell many times but he never gave up. then it happened. franklin told his mother to let go. he didn't veer into the bushes and he didn't crash. way to go cheered his mother. careful honey. franklin was thrilled. finally he was riding his bike all by himself. i can do it he shouted and rode to the park to show his friends. look at me he called. franklin tried to signal with one hand like beaver but he toppled over. i think i'll work on that he laughed. not everything is as easy at it looks. hm where is it. it is. would you like to read another book first. okay. i see you licking that. oh boy hilda hippo. thanks honey. should we read the story about mr frumble and p s pig?

am i right is it you. oh. there you go. tomorrow. we are going to leave to go on our journey right after breakfast. okay. yeah today we saw puddles in the potholes. there were some today. i think because it had rained a few days ago? didn't actually rain. just recently but it did rain a few days ago. and so the rain. the water. rain water was still there. well i don't know it just was still there. when we go on our journey tomorrow do you wannna bring what's my job and so you can show it to grandma and play it with her? she might really like playing that game. with you. you know who else we're gonna see. he's gonna be there. he does. oh i didn't know that about him. mhm. i see. does he live. mhm. lives closer to you now. does he like it better here. because he's closer to you here. mhm. oh would you like to get down. you done with your raspberries. yep all gone. the raspberries are all gone all gone. alrightie. she means they're spending too much money. because. because he was hungry and he needed his clothes washed. so they had to spend money? on the uh. dry cleaner's and. she wasn't expecting to spend all that money on those things she was expecting to spend money on grandma's birthday present. sleepy didn't. it looks like you have a little food on your sleeve here. should we take this shirt off and put on. something else. would you like to have a bath tonight. i think it would be a really good idea to have a bath and you could. play with lego animal. in a little while. panther panther panther. did daddy play that with you. in the bath. i don't think. oh is that what happens sometimes. i see hm. hm? the ducky rides on the top of the bathtub. oh? oh. the ducky rides on top of the. the sail of the boat. i see. i'm gonna get that little purple? thing for you to wear? okay? here we are back again. well i'm just talking to the person who's gonna transcribe. this is still november twenty fifth just moments later? you're wearing your little purple purse? it's very nice looking? and i'm gonna put it up here with some other mail? that i need. that i need to send in the mail. my little one. oh? okay? we could do that! that's what your old letter to him says it says i went right to a party. wanna stay? say the same thing in your letter. can you sort the silverware for me is that something you could do right now? because it's over there? it needs to be sorted. yeah. yeah. in your letter you wanna say the same thing? alright? well we can do that? mhm? mhm? hm! yeah? i will need to get some paper? and a pen or a pencil to write it down for you. okay uh i don't have pencil and paper right now. but when i get some after i finish putting away the dishes then i will write down what you would like me to say to him. in your letter. i don't think that's a measuring cup i think that might be. the dust? uh. a little brush for sweeping the floor. that is what it is? see. yes? it is. where do you think that would be? oh something came off. whoops? can i put this here. let's see if this is okay to put it right here. where do you think he'll see it? you put it where you think he'll see it. hey. oh you think he'll see it best there? alright. maybe we can also just remind him that we put it there? that might help? that's actually a magazine for daddy. you smelling something. you smelling the food cooking! oh would you like a tissue to blow it with. would you like a tissue honey? you feeling alright. really. oh you mean because of this. does that feel better now or is it still hurting. you know what you might need to use the potty sometimes that can make your tummy hurt. shall we go together. okay? let's do that. alright. little potty or big potty? hm. can you take off your long john? you don't need to take them all the way off! you can just leave them on. you can still sit on the potty even though they're on your ankles. okay. the book on the floor. oh yeah! okay i'll read this one. it's called lift the lid use the potty. and it goes like this. here is little bunny's brand new purple potty? lift the lid what's inside. oh want me to go back to that page. oh there's the flap. a think that's a waste. uh a waste basket? it's a toy. what's it doing in there? oh did we skip something. oh the pocket. flap i forgot about that? oh? there's a baby sister. there's the lollipops? why does she keep them in her pocket. i don't know. i don't know. should i turn the page? little bunny's baby sister goes in her diaper. little bunny used to but not anymore. she's making a face? because of the smell. right. she doesn't like the smell. hm? the mommy is. changing the baby's diaper. oh she's probably worried about the baby getting a diaper rash. because when you wear a diaper instead of using a potty you can get a diaper rash. why did you tear it off. i have no idea do you remember why. i don't know why. now when little bunny has to go it's potty time? she pulls down her pants and lifts the lid? she can probably pull down her own big kid pants! after little bunny goes it's time to wipe! want me to read the little book. time to use the potty! sit sit sit i sit and wait. turn the page. then it says. time to wipe! yippee i used the potty! little bunny sits on the potty and goes. after little bunny goes it's time to wipe. hm what's there. time to wash and dry those hands while mommy pours the pee pee in the toilet. then it's time to flush. whoosh? bye bye pee pee! oh okay. did you skip a flap. what's in? the box. what's in her box? big kid pants! there was a flap there it's not there anymore! you tore it off! when you were? a younger toddler! because maybe you didn't understand that you shouldn't tear flaps off of flap books. i don't know there must have been a flap there too? do you remember when there was stickers on this? you know if you wanted to you could get. we could get some. potty stickers and we could put them there. but start putting them there instead of! see because that potty poster is almost full. we could use this again. we could a. we could get a bunch of maybe the! we could get a bunch of small stickers that would fit over the numbers! and you could use this again! would you like to do that. well i mean one that wouldn't be too big. we wouldn't want one that would be. that would cover up more than one number? maybe i could find some. that you could use. that would be the right size. and we could even take it with us when we go on our journey and that way you could have potty stickers on your journey. should we take a potty with us on our journey. yeaah. maybe because she's too short and he's tall enough to reach? which potty do you think we should take with us on the journey should we take this potty seat and leave these two at home? okay we could bring the bunny potty? should we bring the seat too maybe. this one. should we bring a stool with us. oh i see. when we go on our journey? at the vacation house. do you wanna use this one? alright. okay i think you're ready to wipe aren't you? that's the end of the book. oh alright! go ahead then. you know if your tummy ever hurts like that again. your stomach? then you'll know that maybe it's time to use the potty! you came to me and you said my tummy is hurting? and i said sometimes that means you need to use the potty. and i was right. that's number thirteen. this whole thing? it's toilet paper. twenty nine? twenty eight? those are numbers. twenty seven. twenty six. twenty five? twenty four. twenty three? twenty two! twenty one? and now i would like to go eat my supper so i'd like you to wipe. here?

wanna little more water. you keep keep the dolly in there and i'll bring a bucket in with some water. there that's enough water now. no that's plenty. she'll drown otherwise. because there'll be too much water. you don't fill the bath tub up over your neck do you. that's enough because you know what would happen. it would spill all over the rug. and then we'd have one big wet rug. i usually fill the bath tub half way up? just like that pot? there's about as much. i'll put some of this in here? like this pour it into the bowl? here we go? want all the water in the bowl. okay be careful. oh you're dripping the wash cloth all over the floor. okay put the wash cloth back in?

you sure like making that sword? heh you uh. uh huh. whoa? oh goodness alright. oh the fireball is coming. yes. oh yeah there's another orange piece. that's right. you know we're still missing that this one of those white ones though? so if you see one of these white ones around. we should put it back in the box. but we can still make a lot of other things without it. i don't know maybe it's upstairs. but we'll look for it later. well maybe it's under. maybe it's under the table. you see it. no. okay. that's alright we can build lots of things without it. like we can build this? we can build this fish. sort of a a fish and a crab. yeah. yes. you did you found that little missing piece? now it's one on one foot. wow? yeah. i don't know. i just threw some pieces together. it's right there. your welcome. sure. okay. yeah yeah. huh? well we could take a piece off of him. off of this guy? if you want? the squiggly thing. this one. okay but if we put that in then we can't attach? yeah there's no place for the. but we can take one of these blue ones. put that in there. whoa? i see. i think that's pretty neat. um well. maybe it's a swordfish. because this kind of looks like a sword. the bottom part. this is a funny looking swordfish. what do you think? a sword dolphin. you wanna make him even taller? here let's try this? we can put. well we can put some more legs on him? so he's nice and stable? thanks. then we can? put some more? pegs to make him taller? even taller. yeah that's a tough one to get out? sure. i'll help you. you know what the best way to do it is. put your fingers like this? you hold it like this? and. push. push it out like this. oh sorry. okay. yeah that's pretty hard. yeah mom will get it. whoa? alright. yeah that's right? oh? yeah it does. whoa? tip it over. sure okay. yeah maybe we should put the red part down below. that'll make it more stable? okay let's try that? the red one here. we'll do it from. biggest to smallest okay. so we get the red one now we're gonna have the yellow one. and. the blue ones come next? because they're the next biggest? then we'll have the orange ones. i'll have all the orange ones? is that alright. well. well looks likes it's standing up pretty well. now do you want one eye or two eyes. two eyes?

no. i'd say that's a little girl. and she looks like she's dressed up in her some of her mother's clothes or something. she's got on high heels and a pocket book. does that look like somebody i know? who get likes to get dressed up? i can not imagine. somebody named ursula ann? she's giving her kittie cat a little ride in the carriage huh? oh oh! look what happened. she's bending over to pick a very pretty flower and the cat doesn't like the ride. cats don't usually like to ride too well so he's trying to run out of the carriage when she's not looking. she turns around and she goes. oh no. she sees the blanket on the ground and the cat's gone. course he knows where she is he's peeking at her from behind the tree. she runs off to get a policeman because she can not find her cat. she's really kind of worried. and she finds a policeman. and. there's a little body she oh. i don't know she probably says. oh dear oh dear my cat has run away and i can not find him. the policeman puts up his hand. see he's saying. stop. oop. they turn around and there's the cat sitting right there looking at them. they probably feel kinda foolish now cause they thought he was missing and he wasn't at all. so they say. here kittie kittie kittie. kittie kittie. cat doesn't want to be caught you know. they don't like to be. he's looking at them as if to say. well you catch me if you can. and there. whoop? the policeman tries to reach him and he can not. he falls over. the little boy's laughing. and the little girl's very angry. she's kinda disgusted with him that he can not couldn't catch the cat. so they're still calling him and they're walking after the cat to try to catch him. an the cat's looking back at them. he's gonna go through this big pipe. and he's probably gonna hide on them. i would imagine. oh no! look at this. he crawled into there and he's gonna make all of them crawl through there to catch him. look at him. he's peeking in to see where they are. oh isn't that funny? look at the man. well it's really a boy dressed up. but he's gonna fall onto the end an there's water down there. they're not gonna like that too well. he falls in the water and he helps the little girl out. the cat in the meantime is watching. he's probably having a real ball watching them fall in. oh no look at that he fell right in the h in head first into the water. now. now there he goes back in the pipe again. oh they're so mad now. oh no that was clever. see the little boy? he was sitting at the other end waiting and he got the kittie when he came out. he lost him. there he is hopping on that little boy's head. oh they must be furious with that cat huh? now he's gonna climb the tree. now they're gonna have a great time getting him out of the tree. he climbs up the tree. the kittie cat's hanging on by one limb grabs a hold of him. whoops there goes the branch? it's ready to crack. oh oh. there it goes snap! he's fallen down. you think that's funny? well the branch wasn't strong enough to hold him so he's gonna fall. thud right on the ground. well they're all kinda battered and bruised and they're tired of trying to find that cat. there he. look at him. he's walking along behind just as like nothing happened. proud as can be. no i think he's kinda tired out so they put him in the carriage i guess. i know he's awfully tired. look at him. he ca he's sitting down resting. and the little girl. i do not know what she's up to. oh she says. wait a minute. and she goes in the house and she comes out with some iced tea and cookies. oh! she figures they need a little refreshment after trying to catch that kittie cat huh? they all look rather happy don't they? i think you know what we ought to do? i think we ought to try an put this car back together again. the way we found it. anything to. would i like any fresh tea? oh! well. is there any tea? well there's a couple of cups there. i guess so. do you want some tea? oh it's that expensive huh? oh thank you. mm that's delicious. what kind is that? peppermint tea? mm i like peppermint tea. down there?

how come you're not that good at home at picking things up? you have a lot of work to do. for melanie? okay. mhm. mhm. mm that's a pretty good little little shelf to put things in there. yeah. you ought to have something like this at home. that would be fun. and you could have a little general. store of your own. that'd be nice. that's to wash the baby's clothes with see? ivory snow. soft to make baby's clothing very soft. that's right. yeah. right. it's supposed to be lasagne. it's like big spaghetti wide spaghetti. now what? i do not know. what're you gonna fix for me?

no that's to wash the floor with. that's to wash the floor. do you think there's any chance that she'll try the car again? yeah. if if not it's no it's no problem but. okay thanks. what're you running away for? we gotta put the care back together again. put these back on the shelf. okay? well we have to just make believe. let's see if we can get the car back together again. that's gonna be the tricky part isn't it? wow! i don't know ursula. yeah. tricky huh? that's upside down i think. isn't it? let's see. like that? no. no. that's not right either. you probably can do it better than i can. this part here on the side? lessee. like that. and then we have to put the wheels on don't we? that's it. okay gotta put those wheels on now so the whole thing doesn't fall apart. you may need that. you may. mm. how bout this? yeah but don't put the tools away until you finish putting your car together. you might need it. you might need your tools. your tools. i don't even know how this thing goes. there we go. you're better at this than i am. i'm not too good at putting things together. okay. now you can do it with your fingers. i think. that's right. that's right. there keep tightening it. that's it. that's it. that's just what the men do when they change a tire on a car. what happened? it's not going in right? something in there? you put it away. see you might need it. mhm. is it getting tight or not? okay. yeah that's right. some men fix cars for their job you know. well that's what they do to to earn money to take care of their familys. that's what some men do. not your daddy but some daddys do. this is getting to be. is it getting tight? okay let's try this one. i think we've got it the wrong way. that's what the problem is. got it the wrong way. no that was right. mm. you weren't scared. what're those other um? does it go on the back? usually they do. just a second. move your fingers a minute. now here. get your screw driver. tighten it up. that's right! ih wh you won't be able to do it with your fingers this time. use that. go ahead. it's kinda hard angle for you to reach. that's it. right. pretty good. okay. there's a thing that goes in the o. that's the wheel. oh. that's why. here. this goes here. that's why. i knew it kept spinning and it wasn't doing any good. there you go. this goes in here like this. and that fits in. and then you turn it. wait a minute. there we go. your mommy's not very mechanical i'm afraid. i'm not good at this stuff particularly. it's the windshield huh? there. i don't remember where the which is the front of the care and which is the back of the car. i'm not sure. wait a minute now. okay it goes like this. see these little spots here? it fits in them like that. that's the windshield. we have another tire. there's the tool thing compartment for the tools. okay. you see if it does. you're probably right. oh an that's better. now it's balanced. okay. what's that go to? yeah. i think so. mm i'm not sure what might. uh i think this. i think that might be. i think. just turn it i think. yeah. that's right. boy you're smart. wow! how do you know to do that? did somebody show you? did your daddy show you? no? you mean you know how to do that all by yourself? jeepers! that's very good. hello. hi. i'm riuka perlman. i'm also associated with the project. okay hello. hi ursula. say. hi. ha! ho! oh boy you like that. oh for heavens sake isn't that cute?

oh i see daddy coming home. do you want to tell ryan about the game how you do the pet shop game? okay. you wanna show him that game chutes and ladders? let's see what one is it? let's see this one right here? it's the bottom one okay. this looks like a pretty neat game. is that the right one? okay. can you explain how you play this game? okay. okay well can i just decide where i'm gonna be can i just decide that i'm gonna be right here? how do you know where to go? okay you have to start right here and then and then there's only two people so what'd we do now? the spinner oh okay. well what about ryan playing? or is he gonna be this one? hey thank you. which one did you just give ryan? a who's in that one? okay now what? actually you know you're very lucky because when you start here and you hop to one you get to go up here up the ladder. how come that girl gets to go up the ladder? oh because she did a good job. yeah she was carrying those and then she had to go down the chute. how come she had to go down the chute? okay now what do we do you already went so now what happens next in the game? now i spin? i got a one too. so now i'm right here and you're right there do i push you over? no? what am i supposed to do? just stand next to each other okay. ryan's turn. oh i got a one too. so do i go all the way up this ladder? okay. we're all on the same spot. okay now what happens. now these get tricky because you got to go in a certain direction so this would go how about i count each one one two three four. now what's happening to the little girl in this picture? is that a good thing? is it my turn? what happens if the dog's licking you? yeah you get germs from the dog. one two okay so i'm behind you right? oh i got two too. there we go. you were counting the squares but you got to count these squares so one two. where are you going big guy? you were right here you just gotta go one two just follow the squares. you're right there with the boy. is he getting real small here? what's going on here? he's getting real bigger there? which one what? oh wait it's my turn. which one will people get that's your question huh? i got the four one two three four. look we're together. here will you spin it for me one time? alright i got two one two. i'm on the dog again. okay your turn again matty if you still wanna keep going. alright now what? you're counting the squares but you gotta count them across so it's one two right there. six one two three four five six. oh no what happened to me? so what happened in that picture? he fell on the ice and then? oh yeah. actually that's interesting that's actually from allison my other sister. so this one's from allison and that one's from angie. wow what do you do with that? what do we sometimes do with that puppet? we do races are we still playing this game? you were just like running the races? oh i got six. where am i? oh wait hold on ryan's supposed to go. okay what'd you get matty? six? check out that number again. oh yeah okay. you're kinda counting the little actually they're called rungs on the ladder but actually you have to go this way so you were right here so one two three oh no. no he got here he got past that one some how? i don't know who do you think might be a winner? i don't know it's too early to tell. it's up to you. what do i have to do i landed right there what do i have to do? i have to go down there? so how come that boy has to go down the slide and he did not do good job? what's he doing there? now you had asked me if we were going to play the whole game do you want to play the whole game or do you want to do something different? i don't know. well there was something interesting last night that was almost like you got a bunch of new presents. what did you find in the basement? books in the basement? no i didn't bring the bunny book. it's still in your mailbox i bet. that's okay we got the other remember we have the other one in the bigger book so if we really wanna read it tonight we can just read the other version right? but yes where did those books come from besides the basement? um hm i don't know if he knows who katie and cody are. no. are they your uncle? is cody your grandpa? remember what is he he's your? cousin. now i was just thinking about something that ryan probably does not know about and that is the other night you had that very interesting dream. about land before time do you want to tell ryan what happened in your dream? it was a very interesting dream. he woke up in the morning and he said momma i had this dream. what was in the dream? tell about the dream. dinosaurs? and what was interesting about the dinosaurs though in your dream? they go to the great valley but you told me about how you were in the dream. you were a longneck? that is so cool. and then how about some of your other friends? you forget which one is sarah well you told me it was ricky. you don't remember who's sarah's daddy i think it was casin or jackson i don't remember. casin. it was a very interesting dream yeah. now you know you told ryan about going to get your new little toy at the at the at the you know your new little kazoo did you tell him what else you saw at the museum? snow? now what was it doing? oh okay. they have play there? oh a play there that's right you went and saw a play there. i don't really know what the play was about though what was the play about? oh so the play was about snowflakes. and then you also made something there too. what'd you make? oh you got to make a snowflake. how'd you make it? what did you use? you forget well was it made out of real snow? what would happen if it was made out of real snow? melt. you know i don't think we've seen ryan since we've been since you and i and daddy went to the nature class. remember that day and we made some things for the birds and animals? what'd we make there? well one thing i'll give you a little hint it's something that was kind of silly because we can eat it too for breakfast. cereal? what'd we do with the cereal? we put it on string um hm. so we put it on the string and then what'd we do with it? okay. what does it say? oh can i give you a hint? it's june. june ninth. can you guess how old he's gonna be? how old are you gonna be? ten? three right now. so then you're gonna be six right? oh just four yep. you're getting very big huh? we did maybe about a month ago or so we were talked about your birthday and we were thinking about whether you would have wanted to have a party where people came over or maybe just take a good friend and go to the zoo. what do you think you would like to do for your birthday? so you were thinking that if a lot of people might think about coming to the party? and you think that only one really should come? you don't want a lot of people arguing about the toys that people are playing with? well if you only got to invite one friend what would you do? you're gonna invite marissa well that would be nice. that would be nice. is that a plan? how are we gonna let marissa know about it? oh so you have a lot of good ideas. so you think that she would be thinking about coming and then you want to get a map so that you can know where her house is and then you're gonna bring her the card? sounds like a good plan. you don't think it will be a day when you go to school? it won't be it will be after school ends. you usually finish school in the middle of may and then comes june so you'll be out a good while before your birthday is. what is that? whoa i should move i don't know if i want to be by that? what kind of things can this pinchie do? well why don't you tell dr weist what the pinchie can do. what can the pinchie do? it could or how about this can it pinch this can it hold it? let's see here. is that someone what's going on with that noise outside? hey thank you. i don't think he'd want that. can it pick stuff up? he look at that that's cool. well what'd you think? it seems like it could be a what what do these seem to be maybe? what are those things it starts with an m? we call them? metal sticks? what attracts metal what are the things that can pick up the metal? remember you got a whole box of them what are those called? magnets yeah. so you think that's what's going on there's a magnet here? i think what it is is that when you grab it here let's show your nose in here so we can talk about this okay. all it does is it just mushes the thing like this brings these little arms together and it mushes the things. that's why you can stick them in. well you know i was thinking something very interesting happened yesterday morning with our garbage. do you remember what happened with our garbage? it fell over. how'd it fall over? by all the wind but then so our garbage fell over and then what ended up happening to all our garbage? oh he did that was nice. you're right he throws the garbage. so they play with each other? and who does mandy play with? the little baby mark. the big mark. is he nice? and who does diana play with? she never comes anyway does she. and who does ryan play with? but does he play with anybody else?

why don't you go get some out of your room? is the water on in the bathroom abe? why? oh. maybe put this on the bottom. aha. what? what if we put it in the window? it looks pretty cold out there to me. is it cold? are you going outside? here abe. i hope that it doesn't lose it all. why? oh. it's upstairs. you don't have to go upstairs unless you want to get your coat and go outside. if you go out you need to wear your jacket. okay. okay did you have sweet dreams last night? what happened? aha. was it a scary dream? would you like to go there sometime? wouldn't that be sort of freaky? okay. squeaking? yeah. what are you doing abe? what? static electricity? what's that thing on your ankle?

okay. what? you're going to tell me if one of these sea shells is the same type as the fossil? what? no it doesn't look like it to me. it doesn't have to be bigger it just has to be the same type right? what do you think? what? how did it get growned? oh so the coral grew on the fossil? what if the fossil wasn't in water? yep. do they own it? what do you mean? own it? okay what do you mean. own it? bought it? how could a sea shell buy a fossil? do you mean what kind of seashell was it? is it? yep. let me see. i still don't know what you mean by. owns it. how does it own it? when it got dead what happened? okay but what does it mean when you say something owned it? oh and that means it owned it? okay i think i understand now. thanks for the explanation. i think we found one of the same type. why don't i put it somewhere else? no what if i put it right here? yeah. right. pretty long. i sure did. you're getting pretty good. let me try to lasso the truck. let me try. then you can. okay your turn. i sure did. yeah. are you okay?

wow! what is it? you know what it is. what is that? look at it. that's a turtle. do you know how to work that? it's a puppet. you put your hand in there. that's right. wow what a nice puppet. can he talk? sure. if you talk for him. yeah. yeah. yeah. you to carry it. can you say thank you for the puppet? say. thank you. you're welcome william. sandy'll be back with you in a minute. goodbye william. goodbye. look at that nice puppet. alright so let me put down my stuff. did you hear what janet was telling you? huh? she was telling me? well there are three different things to do okay? there's a book to look at there's a take apart car and there's a uh store sort of like josh has at his house? so do you know which one you would like to do first? the take apart car. let's take it down? you wanna help? okay and bring it over here. right over here. who does? oh jason cantridge. well then you probably know how it works. let's take it out of the box okay? okay do you know how it works? well those are tools? well let's see if we can figure it out okay? yeah they're two bolts. ho how do you take a bolt out? you don't know. you could use a screw driver? that's gonna be hard to get it in there? see where the slot is? does the screw driver fit in the slot? try turning the slot oh yeah? that's gonna need some help though. you know what. it needs the wrench to hold. no? you just turn this and i will hold the nut. you turn the bolt. okay okay is that loose enough to pull out with your fingers. okay alright ah now we've got the idea. you want to do the same one on the other side. okay. okay here all the pieces that you take out we'll put in a pile. does that loosen it. the flashlights? the headlights. the headlights. this is like being a mechanic? i wonder if these same toys will be here when we came back with daddy. that comes off. that's the front fender front bumper okay. oh put it in the same pile. okay now what else can you unscrew with that screw driver. that's the front headlights. yeah. i don't know but i'm sure that whatever it is it's not tools like this. probably not yet. okay now what else comes apart. now that you have taken that apart. okay. those are the hubcaps. they're screws. they're supposed to be the hubcaps on the car! it needs to be screwed more doesn't it! if you need the extra help. looks like you're doing okay yourself? okay let's see? use the screw driver because that's what the screw driver is supposed to do is to help you unscrew? let's see now. there. you unscrew while i hold the wheel there okay. hen when it's loose enough you can pull it out with your fingers. okay very good job. off comes the wheel. okay. that's one. we've still got how many left to do. do you know how many are left to do? three more. that's right. are you making that looser or tighter? you want to make it looser if you want to take it apart. oh no. it's not locked. it's just closed so that people walking up and down the hall won't bother us. that's one more. okay who's going to take the tire off me or you. you? uh oh now i know why they call it a take apart car. that's one whole side of the car taken apart. here we've got one more side of the car to take apart? oh look what else just came off. the hood of the engine came off. now we can see what's wrong with the engine. do you want to see what's wrong with the engine? or you wanna keep taking apart the wheel. okay okay this is like a puzzle isn't it. what are you gonna do after we take it all apart? put it back together. that's gonna be a trick. okay what do you think is going to come off now! hat wooden side huh? okay it's almost all apart. it's almost all apart. that's the engine. okay. aha. can we be the mechanics? absolutely! hm. something in the trunk too. oh look what the trunk has in it. a spare tire. that's like in our car we have a spare tire in case we get a flat tire. so that has to be taken apart too? mhm? you know how many there are? or do you have to count them. mhm. okay alright let's see. there's some more bolts left in here. two more bolts. do you remember that the yellow bolts go on the sides? can you remember that? cause when we put it back together we are going to have to remember which bolts go where. oh the dash board just came down? okay. this is the dash board. it fits in here alright. okay. no it doesn't have to be screwed it needs to be slided. just slide it. alright it looks to me like you can do almost everything with just the screw driver. one more thing has to come apart. beep beep. what has to come apart? the horn is another screw. can you find the screw driver in this? whole pile here? the whole thing came? that's why they call this a take apart car. and you just took it apart? without any help? cause you didn't need any help. now what. okay. what should we do first? well you know that thing on sesame street where the little boy gets lost and he is told to remember whatever he did last he should do first? and then he'd find his way back home again. well i think what we should do is try to remember what we took apart last and put that together first. what's the last thing we took apart? hm? the very last thing you did was the steering wheel? let's do that first? oh you want to pretend that you're a mechanic? you know how she cleaned the toe shoes? she said oh just a little bit of this and a little bit of that. in other words find out for yourself you know? oh some of them are a they're all you know like. trade secrets. yeah you know? foolish stuff. somebody had to tell her i suppose. just a little bit of this and a little bit of that. she wants sarah to dance with her son next year. a little bit of this and a little bit of that. she'll get too. what are you doing sarah?

what? no what was bad about it? yeah and what else? and what else. and you still haven't apologized to your grandfather? so there are three bad things. first that you hit marky. okay four count them. to marky you didn't apologize to marky. okay and then third. yeah. and four? no that wasn't that's not something wrong? going to your room is a punishment it's not something you did wrong? okay you want me to tell you what the fourth is. you didn't apologize to grandpa for not talking to him. you still haven't done that you could do that still. no he didn't do that? and there's one more of the thing that you did that was wrong. is that you made it so your father couldn't talk to grandpa. five things? okay now which of those can we fix. of those five there is one that we can still fix. daddy? okay. two of them you fix one of them right now? yeah? okay what about the other one. how do you fix that one? when are you going to do? which one. what do you mean maybe today but really tomorrow? ow my foot is falling?

do you know what happened? marky took them together apart again? okay? no no your promise is that you're going to get those blocks back? that's your promise. you understand what a promise is. well that's another problem? now remember what happens if you don't fulfill your promise? what's supposed to happen? okay so is that ready are we ready for that? jump over? okay then after do you promise to put the blocks back together? yeah promise promise. do you promise too? okay? sure honey? something happened to santa claus? yeah i guess he needs to be blown up again? what hole? no i didn't find a hole up there? okay honey there wasn't a hole on the very top. well just wait a second ross you just tell me here's the hole. it's not a hole. that's just maybe it's broken? maybe that's where it's broken. it's not broken. not not broken ross you're just wrong it's that simple! i want to play santa claus. you mean that hole right there. there's no hole. there's just no hole there honey. okay let ross touch the hole mom. here's the hole? let him touch it? i found the hole. i found the hole guys. okay we we're pretty sure that santa claus is broken now. we're pretty sure santa claus is broken because somebody jum hit him too hard. no that's where dad took ross out of the bath tub and put him on the bed when he was all wet. why what do you mean even when they're dry. oh that's true? do you want more milk? honey you don't say? just my second one. it was my second one. and i don't want anymore. you say? it was just my first and i want one more but it was my second and i'm finished. is that right. girl isn't a baby either?

we already? oh well we'll go after this christmas is finished okay. i want a real real bad monster who steps on heman. your amigo. oh they don't have amigos any more? amigos they're not going to get for a awhile only if we're lucky? they stopped carrying amigos. isn't that horrible. just like they stopped showing the phoenix dirty trick right. is that fare ross. do you want some of the potatos? right. why can't i. you teasted me you tricked me into that?

yes marky just a minute. what is that? bologna and um mayonnaise mayonnaise not butter it's not marky. oh. it's not butter! is that butter? no? they're recording. that's okay? um ross it doesn't make any sense? to say that that the plant eaters don't have any meat? is this butter? because their bodies are made of meat. your body is made of meat? only if you eat meat. you have meat in it? yeah you have meat in your body. yeah but there is no meat in your tummy unless you eat meat. you see you gotta understand something okay? your tummy if you eat plants your tummy takes the plants and puts them into the tummy and makes them into meat and puts the meat all over your body. muscles? muscles muscles are meat. you take plants okay you you see that apple sauce. that's not meat is it?

those are just different kinds of bicycles and then see they've got these little shields and so that helps make them to be able to go faster. and this has three wheels and the guy leans back and it's very little air resistance so it can go real fast. it can go faster than most bicycle can go. but it's hard. you have to lie down and pedal. that would be really hard i think. and there's another one. see it's got that little shield and you're inside some plastic and that makes it easier to go a lot faster. that's a funny bike that's got a small wheel and a big wheel. it's not a wheelchair but he sure does look strange on it doesn't it? and he has uh that's just a funny looking bicycle. that's the same bicycle looked at from a different angle. and here's a very very small one. small front wheel. is this a small back wheel? or a big one. it's a very big one. and what is this? that's right. what kind of a mystery is this? did you did mom read any of your babar stories yet? did elizabeth read a babar? you don't wanna talk. darling i don't think amye's ready to have you listen to it. look helen we'll see her after let's um. well let's see there's some things here for us to do today. alright i'll show you. alright? here's a book. we're gonna read a story okay? and there's um a car here. no you can not bring it home cause other children are going to play with it. you wanna do that first? okay let's put it over here. helen? let's put it over here. well this is where we're supposed to play with it. come on over here. no there's just the book and the car and then there's some stuff to play with here we can play store over here okay? what are you doing? yeah? you know something? i think this car comes apart. you can use the tools. oh look at this. the windshield came off. well let's see. is that a tool you can use? i don't know it's a. oh but you know let's see. oh alright. try that try that. see if that will take anything off. oh what's in there? yeah. that's a spare tire huh? you know what? let me see. here's a screw driver. do you think you can use that? to take the car apart? stick it right in that space there. see if it fits in there will it fit in there? no? let's see. look at that? yeah. okay turn it the other way. turn it that way turn it. i'll show you again okay? that's right. okay yeah. i think you can. okay. alright. that's right. that's good. okay taking the bumper off helen okay. would you like to change the wheel? well maybe you could take that wheel off. and you could put. okay. ah why? i guess they're made that way. it's just you and me in this room that's good turn turn it some more turn it some more. oh it's like a real screw driver. yeah. now you. okay now can you change the tire? well. can you put the spare tire on? well why don't you do one at a time okay? take it. can you take the tire out of there? okay. well because they thought that we might like to play with these things. because other children are gonna are gonna wh play with these things. okay here. alright. let me show you turn it. see the way i'm holding it? see and just turn it in your fingers that's right good that's very good. um you can try. okay now you can put a new wheel on it. you know what? maybe this one was a flat tire and you can put a new wheel on it. okay? that's the spare tire. are you gonna put the spare tire on there? oh. you have to change that that one too? alright. go ahead. well that's just something to sit on. who? who? who is? i guess so. look what i found. look at that. what's in there? here you wanna use the tool to do it? alright. aha. okay. well maybe she'll get a turn. boy oh boy! do you think you'll be able to put this car back together? oh. okay remember how i showed you to hold the screw driver? no turn it around. hold it hold it at the tip. hold it. look i'll show you again see? okay okay that's good now turn it. right. keep turning it in the same direction. good. that's good. that's very good. okay turn it some more. well? try again. think if you try again you can get it. good. okay turn it some more. good. keep turning. keep turning until the screw comes out. oh i think it works. that's a hard one isn't it? try it. turn it some more. i don't think so i think it's someone else. it's looks very loose. oh then it came out. look at this. that came out of there. no. you put it back. yes you can. it fits like this one fits. okay now fit that fit it in there. that's right. okay. okay. yeah. who's gonna drive? how do you think you get it out? oh okay. okay is there something wrong with the engine? oh. what's the matter with it? oh. okay why don't. here. that's right. okay i think if you use both hands it'll be easier use one hand to hold. okay that's right. go ahead. oh you know you may have to use one hand to hold the wheel and one hand to work the screw driver okay. helen? do you think you'd like me to read the story to you? would you like to stop and read the story? no? you like this? you sure? there's something else you could do too if you would like to. uh something underneath this curtain. uh oh. what's under here? yeah what do you think of that? would you like to play store? or something like that? we can. okay do you wanna do you wanna put the car back together and play store? okay. okay put it put it in here. wait a minute. there. okay now i think you can screw that back in. turn it the other way. turn it. that's right. yeah. you turn it in one direction when you want to take the screw out. and you turn it in the other direction when you want to put it in. that would take it out helen. turn it the other way to put it in. okay that's good. that's very good. you're doing a good job. well you have to learn how to turn it between your fingers. that's good. that's very good. that's very good. i know. just relax. see? see and in fact if you use two hands it might be a little bit easier for you. should. let's try to put another wheel in. okay? alright. okay alright. i'll hold the car for you and you get a screw that's right. put it in and in fact you know what might be a little bit easier to begin with? turn it with your hand first. that's right. and then when you have to tighten it you can use a screw driver. alright. you can. now put the screw driver in. okay that's right. and tighten it. tighten it. good. that's good. that one? whoops? something fell out here. it's in the front? where did this come from? was this on top of here like that maybe? okay let's uh. you wanna put in the other wheel? okay let's uh. whoops i don't think that's the right thing?
