00:01Clifford, remember when you were a puppy?
00:04One puppy, two, puppy on a puppy bed.
00:07The littlest one has fur, that's red!
00:09I'm kind of new, so I'll stick with you.
00:15I like new places, seeing lots of new faces.
00:21And before this stays through, we'll make good friends like you.
00:30Three puppy, four puppy, five puppy, six.
00:33Clifford is up to brand new tricks.
00:36I might be small, but I'm on the ball.
00:41I might be little, I might get stuck in the middle.
00:47But there's one thing we know, love makes little things grow.
00:55Yeah, love makes little things grow.
01:00Yeah, love makes little things grow.
01:09The big, big present.
01:15Let's hang this tinsel over the front door.
01:24Hey, look, that's us.
01:28Uh-huh, a funny looking us.
01:36Look so, a walking Santa hat.
01:41That's weird.
01:42I didn't know Santa hats could walk.
01:45Let's get it!
01:50Clifford?
01:51What are you doing under there?
01:53Uh, I'm gonna sneak a peek at my Christmas present from Emily Elizabeth.
01:58It's the biggest one under the tree.
02:01Wow!
02:02The biggest?
02:03Shh!
02:05Can we peek too?
02:07Oh, sure.
02:09Come on in.
02:20Nina!
02:21Nina!
02:22Look at the big present I got for Clifford.
02:25Well, so much for sneaking a peek.
02:30Wait a minute.
02:31Zoe and I still have our biggest present to open for Hanukkah.
02:35Do you want to sneak a peek at it, Clifford?
02:37Yeah, I sure do.
02:39No!
02:39Then come on.
02:54Oh, this is gonna be so delicious.
02:58What's Mr. Solomon doing?
03:00Oh, he's making potato pancakes called latkes
03:03and special Hanukkah donuts called sufganiyot.
03:09Sufganiyot?
03:09Uh-huh.
03:10They're filled with jelly.
03:12Mm-mm.
03:14Uh-huh.
03:16There.
03:17Come on.
03:18Let's get a peek at the present.
03:31Oh, wow.
03:33It's...
03:33It's so...
03:35Big!
03:37We've been saving it for the very last night of Hanukkah.
03:41Which is tonight.
03:42What do you mean the last night?
03:44How many nights of Hanukkah are there?
03:46Eight?
03:48That's why there are eight candles on the menorah.
03:52Oh, I get it.
03:53One for each night.
03:55Plus, there's one extra candle in the middle that we use to light the other eight candles.
03:59Every night at sunset, we light a new candle and then...
04:05We get to open a present!
04:13What's this?
04:14It's called a tradle.
04:16It's a Hanukkah toy that spins.
04:18See?
04:22Wow!
04:24Look at it go!
04:27Oh!
04:28Yeah!
04:32We have to stop it.
04:34Right!
04:39Here, tradle, tradle.
04:40Here!
04:42Wow!
04:43Wow!
04:44Wow!
04:45Wow!
04:45Wow!
04:46Wow!
04:48Wow!
04:48Wow!
04:49I see. It's a new dreidel game.
05:07Oh, dear.
05:11Now, don't worry. Accidents happen.
05:14I'll just find a menorah to borrow so we can light the candles at sunset.
05:18I'll be back soon.
05:21Oh, don't be sad, guys. Mr. Solomon will find another menorah. You'll see.
05:26But what if he doesn't?
05:28How will we light the candles at sunset?
05:31And if we can't light the candles at sunset, then how can we celebrate the last night of Hanukkah?
05:36And if we can't celebrate the last night of Hanukkah, we can't open our big, big presents.
05:44Oh, gee. This is serious.
05:51Hey, I've got a big idea.
05:54We'll just put the menorah pieces back together again, like a puzzle.
05:58Good thinking, Clifford.
06:00We love puzzles.
06:06Ta-da!
06:07Ta-da! The menorah is all back together.
06:10Well, here we go.
06:15Oops.
06:17Now what are we going to do?
06:21Oh, I know.
06:23Whenever Emily and Elizabeth breaks her toys, she puts them back together with sticky stuff.
06:27But where can we find this sticky stuff?
06:31Sticky stuff?
06:32Follow me.
06:36There it is.
06:38You're right.
06:40Jelly is sticky stuff.
06:43It looks a little different than the sticky stuff Emily and Elizabeth uses, but okay.
06:51I've got some.
06:52Let me try.
06:58Oh, it is sticky.
07:01And gooey.
07:02Gooey?
07:03Ooh, I like gooey.
07:07Okay.
07:08Now all we have to do is stick the menorah back together.
07:15It doesn't look right.
07:18No, I don't remember it being so sideways.
07:22Well, at least it's back together.
07:29Was back together, you mean?
07:32Now what are we going to do?
07:34Our menorah is broken and sticky.
07:36Well, uh, maybe Mr. Solomon can find a menorah to borrow in time.
07:43Uh, or, or, or.
07:48Or we can ask Daffodil for help.
07:52So, what do you think, Daffodil?
07:55Is there any hope?
08:01Absolutely.
08:02Where there's a will, there's a way.
08:04Wow!
08:05All right!
08:07Uh, Daffodil, which way is that?
08:12The creative way.
08:13Now, everybody go and collect as much stuff as you can.
08:17What for?
08:18We're going to build a brand new menorah.
08:21We are?
08:22You bet.
08:27We did it!
08:28Yeah, it's, it's, it's, well, it's beautiful.
08:39Whoopee!
08:40We saved Hanukkah.
08:42Now we'll be able to light the candles at sunset.
08:45And open our big, big present.
08:47The present!
08:48Woo-hoo!
08:49Woo-hoo!
08:50I'm home.
08:51And I borrowed a menorah.
08:59Well, what do we have here?
09:01You know, it reminds me of a menorah.
09:05With a little adjustment here and a little twist there.
09:09All it really needs are a few candles.
09:13Why, look.
09:15We've got the most wondrous menorah I've ever seen.
09:22And it's extra special because you made it yourselves.
09:27This is going to be the best Hanukkah ever.
09:36You did a terrific job lighting the candles, Emily Elizabeth.
09:40Thanks, Mr. Solomon.
09:42It was an honor.
09:48Mm-mm-mm.
09:49Do I smell latkes, Sonny?
09:52You sure do, Mama.
09:53And they're coming right up.
09:55Let me help you.
10:02Hey, Clifford.
10:03What's Shun eating?
10:04Oh, they're called Sevganiyot, Jorge.
10:07They're special Hanukkah donuts filled with sticky stuff called jelly.
10:13Hmm, not bad.
10:15Hey, Clifford.
10:16How'd you know about this jelly?
10:18Oh, it's a long story.
10:21Latkes, anyone?
10:23Mm, this is delicious.
10:26Oh, Sonny, these are delicious.
10:29Oh, wonderful.
10:30I finally figured out how to make Mama's potato pancakes.
10:41Oh, the present!
10:45Hey, guys, guys!
10:47You can open your big, big present now.
10:50Thanks, but we'll do it later, Clifford.
10:52Uh-huh.
10:53We're having too much fun.
10:56Anything to matter, Clifford?
10:58Well, I'm confused.
11:00I thought we made the menorah so that Flo and Zoe could open their big, big Hanukkah present.
11:05But now...
11:09Now they don't seem to want to.
11:12Look around, Clifford.
11:13What do you see?
11:21Well, I see all our family.
11:25And friends.
11:27And we're all together.
11:29That's right.
11:31Oh, right.
11:33And being together with your family and friends during the holidays is really the biggest present
11:39of all.
11:40You got it, Clifford.
11:42Now let's go get that dreidel.
12:02Clifford, where are you, boy?
12:06Want to read a story, Clifford?
12:09Okay.
12:10Pick one out.
12:14Thanks, Clifford.
12:15This looks like a great story.
12:21Today's story is Speckle and the Homemade Toys.
12:24It was a great morning because Speckle and his friends had gotten together to play.
12:29But soon they realized that none of them had brought a game or a toy to play with.
12:33They wondered what were they going to do until Speckle said they could use their imaginations
12:40and make their own toys.
12:42That was a great idea.
12:44And off they went to see what toys they could create.
12:48Reba was so inspired, she went right out and gathered acorns, just the right size for
12:53a game of jacks.
12:55Working together, Darnell and Luna made an extra long daisy chain to use as a jump rope.
13:01Then Robbie and Speckle found that a soft plastic lid was perfect for throwing through the air
13:08like a flying disc.
13:09Now the gang had a brand new question.
13:13Which wonderful homemade toy should they play with first?
13:18The end.
13:20I love reading stories together.
13:25You know, Clifford, for such a small dog, you sure are a big reader.
13:39Hanukkah, plunder, blunder.
13:45Would you like more tea, Mrs. Daffodil?
13:51And would you like another cup, Mr. Clifford?
13:59We're almost out of water.
14:01I mean tea.
14:03I better ask Mom for some more.
14:09Oh boy, wearing hats sure makes you itchy.
14:13How do people stand them?
14:16I love my big floppy hat.
14:18It matches my ears.
14:23Hiya, Jorge.
14:25Hey guys, what are you doing?
14:26We're having a tea party.
14:28Would you like to join us?
14:30Oh no, I don't think so, amigo.
14:32Thanks anyway, but I'm not much for tea parties.
14:35Hey, what's that smell?
14:39Oh, you've got doggy doodles.
14:41That changes everything.
14:42Oh, uh, sure, sure, I'd like to join your tea party.
14:45In order to be at a tea party, you have to be dainty.
14:49I can be dainty.
14:53Was that dainty enough for you?
14:56Not exactly.
14:57Hey, Clifford, remember we're supposed to go over to Flo and Zoe's?
15:00They said they had something special to show us tonight.
15:03Oh, right.
15:05Hi, Jorge.
15:06You're just in time for our tea party.
15:08Would you like to have some refreshments?
15:13Oh, they're gone.
15:15Something tells me you already had some.
15:18And now I bet you'd like Clifford to play with you.
15:21I think he's probably ready for a little exercise.
15:23How about it, boy?
15:30All right, you two.
15:31Have a good time.
15:32I guess that's more tea for us, Mrs. Daffodil.
15:37So Flo and Zoe said this is the first night of harmonica.
15:41What's that?
15:42I don't know exactly, but I hope they have enough harmonicas for everyone to play.
15:47Yeah, me too.
15:53No, no, no, not harmonica.
15:56Hanukkah.
15:57It's the festival of lights.
15:59Oh, Hanukkah?
16:02What's that?
16:03The celebration of Hanukkah goes back thousands of years
16:07to a day when the Jewish people were ready to light the lamps in their temple.
16:12They only had enough oil to keep the lamps lit for one day, but they stayed lit for eight.
16:17That's right.
16:18It was a miracle.
16:19And it's why Hanukkah's eight days long.
16:22To celebrate, we get together with friends and family and eat yummy potato pancakes called latkes.
16:29But that's not the best part.
16:31All right, Flo and Zoe, here are your Hanukkah presents.
16:35That's the best part.
16:37Come on.
16:40Oh, we have guests.
16:43Happy Hanukkah.
16:44Ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff.
16:47I think I might have a special holiday treat for you as well.
16:50I'll be right back.
16:54Wow, look at all those presents.
16:57One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
17:01Eight presents each.
17:03And we get to open one on each night of Hanukkah.
17:06That's the part I don't like.
17:08I want to open them all now.
17:10But if you did that, then you wouldn't have anything to be excited about tomorrow night.
17:15Okay, Flo and Zoe, pick which one you'd like to open.
17:22And I have something for you too, Clifford and Orge.
17:33Now we've got three little kittens in the house.
17:36Meow, meow, meow.
17:40Here you go, Flo.
17:42Oh, that looks nice on you.
17:46Well, if our friends are all done with their treats, I think it's time for bed.
17:53But you two are welcome to stop by again any night you like.
18:11I'll just go peek at my presents to make sure that they're safe.
18:15Uh, so, where are you going?
18:18To, uh, get a drink of water.
18:21Go back to sleep.
18:29Oh, I just want to touch one.
18:32What could that hurt?
18:39Phew.
18:41Oops.
18:43Well, look at that.
18:44My paw slipped.
18:46Well, now that it's practically unwrapped anyway...
18:53Oh, boy!
18:54A toy dreidel!
19:00I wonder what's in this one.
19:02In this one!
19:03In this one!
19:07Wow!
19:08A jingle ball!
19:10Oh, fun!
19:11A bell on a string!
19:13Hey!
19:14A new blue collar!
19:17A pom-pom!
19:22This is the best Hanukkah ever!
19:26Oh, no!
19:28Uh, I better rewrap these.
19:31I don't want to get in trouble for opening my Hanukkah presents early.
19:43And there.
19:45And there.
19:46As good as new.
19:47No one will ever know.
19:49If they don't look too close...
19:53I better get back to bed.
20:04Oh, no, Zoe, come quick!
20:06Something's happened to your presents.
20:09Really?
20:10Uh-huh.
20:11It looks like someone unwrapped them
20:13and then rewrapped them really badly.
20:17Really?
20:18They look fine to me.
20:20It's so strange that my presents weren't touched,
20:23but all of yours were opened.
20:25I mean, who would open all of your presents like that?
20:29Who would come into the living room
20:31in the middle of the night and...
20:34I know who!
20:36It was you!
20:37You're not allowed to do that!
20:40Meow! Meow! Meow!
20:42Shh! Tattletail!
20:45What's the matter, Flo?
20:47Oh, so it's true what they say about kittens being curious.
20:54Someone opened up all his Hanukkah presents early.
21:00Oh, Zoe, I'm not mad,
21:02but now you won't have anything to open
21:05on the next seven nights of Hanukkah, I'm afraid.
21:12So, I bet you guys are looking forward to opening up another one of your Hanukkah presents tonight.
21:17Zoe isn't.
21:18He already opened up all of his presents.
21:21How come?
21:22He couldn't wait.
21:24Heh.
21:24And I didn't even get in trouble.
21:26Yeah, but now you have nothing to look forward to.
21:29You've spoiled all the surprises and it won't be as much fun.
21:33Ah, big deal.
21:35I've still got all my presents to play with.
21:37And if you're nice, Flo, I might let you play with them.
21:43Well, she is kind of right, Zoe.
21:46What do you mean?
21:47It's sort of like opening up all your birthday presents before it's your birthday.
21:52And then your birthday just wouldn't seem as special.
21:54It wouldn't?
21:56Aw, it'll be fine.
22:01All right, Flo and Zoe.
22:03It's time to open another one of your presents.
22:07Oops, I mean Flo.
22:10It's time to open up one of your presents.
22:12I forgot you already opened yours, Zoe.
22:19Okay, I'm gonna get the latkes and sour cream for everyone.
22:24Oh, boy, this is my favorite part.
22:28Oh, let's see which one to open next.
22:32Hmm, that one?
22:34That one?
22:36Maybe.
22:37Oh, that one has such a pretty ribbon.
22:40I can't decide.
22:42Okay.
22:44This one!
22:46This one!
22:51What?
22:52What's wrong, Zoe?
22:54You were right, Flo.
22:56I spoiled Hanukkah by not waiting to open my presents.
23:00And now I have nothing to look forward to for the whole rest of Hanukkah.
23:05This isn't any fun.
23:11Well, sometimes waiting for a present is almost as much fun as opening it.
23:16I know that now.
23:18But it's too late.
23:20There's still other things to look forward to during Hanukkah, like lighting the candles and seeing our friends and family.
23:28Hey, you're right.
23:29And don't forget the latkes.
23:32Right.
23:33The latkes with sour cream.
23:35Yeah.
23:36They're yummy.
23:41And if you want, you can help me unwrap my presents for the rest of Hanukkah.
23:47Really?
23:48Do you mean it?
23:50Sure.
23:51As long as you promise to only open one a night.
23:54Okay.
23:55But are you sure?
23:57It's not really fair to you since I already opened mine.
24:00I'm not going to have fun unless you're having fun too, Zoe.
24:04Aw.
24:05Thanks, Flo.
24:06I'm glad you're my sister.
24:08You're the best Hanukkah present a kitten could ask for.
24:12Aw.
24:12Are you going to keep being mushy or are you going to help me open my present?
24:17Present!
24:18Ha ha ha ha!
24:46Uh...
24:48I want to share all my favorite toys, but if I move them one by one, I'll spend the whole
24:53play date going up and down the stairs.
24:55Oh, how about if we help?
24:57Sure, if we each carry a few toys.
25:00They'd all be in the laundry room in no time.
25:03That'd be great. Thanks, guys.
25:05Clifford's friends know that it's important to help others.
25:08Because when you help someone, you can make their really big job not so big at all.
25:13That's why Clifford's idea to grow on for today is help others.
25:18Oh, thanks, guys. Now there's just one more thing.
25:22Could you help us play with all these toys?
25:25You bet!
25:26All right!
25:27All right!
25:55All right!
25:58My name...
26:03You
