00:00Help all kids learn and grow with PBS Kids.
00:03Thank you for supporting your PBS station.
00:07That's me, Fred the house cat.
00:09When my family leaves for the day,
00:11I don't just sit inside watching the world go by.
00:14I become...
00:18Major Cat! Backyard explorer extraordinaire!
00:24Tally-ho!
00:26Tally-ho!
00:27We're climbing out the trees now.
00:29We're swinging through the breeze now.
00:31We're getting muddy knees now.
00:33Major Cat! Major Cat! Major Cat!
00:35Major Cat! Major Cat! Major Cat!
00:38So what are we waiting for?
00:40We're so excited to explore
00:42all that nature has in store.
00:44Major Cat! Go! Go!
00:45Tally-ho! Go! Go! Go!
00:47Tally-ho!
00:48We're the favorite nature guide.
00:50We just can't wait to get outside.
00:52We're swimming through the trees now.
00:55We're jumping in the leaves now.
00:57We're getting muddy knees now.
00:58We're going to try to catch her.
01:00Tally-ho!
01:02Tally-ho!
01:28They're...
01:28Woodstock Chellapalooza! Man oh man, I love Woodstock Chellapalooza!
01:33But one teeny tiny question. What's Woodstock Chellapalooza?
01:37Hey, that's usually my line, I think, right? Isn't that right, baby?
01:41Sorry, Hal. It just makes more sense for me to say it this episode. Cool?
01:47Woodstock Chellapalooza is a music festival, Daisy.
01:50But not just any music festival. No, no, no, no, no!
01:53It's a music festival that honors nature!
01:55Ooh, I love music and I love nature! That's win-win for me, baby!
02:01Hey, I thought I always said that, too! You do, Tutu, also!
02:05Oh, okay. So, what kind of nature songs are we going to sing?
02:09Our own songs, Daisy!
02:11What? Yeah, man, that's the best part of Woodstock Chellapalooza, we make up the songs ourselves.
02:17Gosh, I've never made up my own song before. I'm not sure I can do it.
02:21Of course you can, Daisy! It's all part of Woodstock Chellapalooza, baby!
02:27Grab your guitar. A piano, too! Clap your hands! Stomp your shoe!
02:34Make up a song and you just can't lose-a at Woodstock Chellapalooza!
02:41Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza!
02:44Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza!
02:47Sing about nature! Sing about the sky! Sing about the trees or the mountain high!
02:53You'll be inspired when you see the views-a at Woodstock Chellapalooza!
03:00Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza! Come on, come on!
03:03Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza!
03:05Sing about animals! Sing about plants!
03:08Sing about elephants! Sing about ants!

03:21Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza!
03:24Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza! Come on, come on!
03:28Woodstock, hey! Chellapalooza!
03:30Woodstock, Chellapalooza!
03:33Yeah!
03:34Wow, it blows my mind. You just made up that song.
03:38Oh, you guys, I've never really, um, I've never made up a song before.
03:43Anyone can do it. Just, I don't know, take a tune from another song and, like, I don't know, put
03:48your own nature words to it, I guess.
03:50You can do that?
03:52Check it out.
03:53Nature Cat, he had a yard, Y-A-R-D yard, and in that yard he had some...
04:02Pine cones?
04:03Y-A-R-D yard, with a pine cone here and a pine cone there.
04:08Pine cone, pine cone, everywhere pine cone.
04:10Nature Cat, he had a yard, Y-A-R-D yard, Y-A-R-D yard.
04:17Wow!
04:18Now it's your turn, Daisy.
04:20Please give a warm Woodstock Chellapalooza welcome to Daisy.
04:26Woohoo!
04:30Oh, I'm terrible at this. I just can't make up a song about nature.
04:35I believe you can, Daisy. You just need a little inspiration.
04:39Onward and forward!
04:43Oh, I hear something. It sounds like a birdie tweet.
04:47Hmm, but how would you make a song out of it?
04:49Like this, perhaps?
04:51Here I am. I'm on the trail.
04:53I'm hiking with my feet.
04:57I hear the sound when the birdies call.
05:01They go tweet tweet tweet.
05:04Tweet tweet tweet tweet.
05:07That's one sound I'm counting.
05:10Whoa! Tweet tweet tweet tweet.
05:13As I'm hiking to the mountain.
05:16Whoa! Tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet.
05:19Hey! Tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet.
05:22That's right! That is one sweet song.
05:26Thanks, but we're not finished yet. Let's hike and listen to more sounds.
05:29Hey, listen! Sounds like the brook!
05:32Yes, it does! And it's perfect for my song!
06:03We're walking here by the brook.
06:13Wow! How do you do that, Nature Cat?
06:16What?
06:16I just listen carefully for the sounds of nature.
06:19I hear something!
06:22Oh, I hear it, too!
06:25See that squirrel? With some acorns now.
06:28Look how his eyes twinkle. Hear the sound.
06:32The acorns make, when they fall, they skinkle!
06:36Uh, skinkle?
06:38That's what it sounds like to me!
06:41Skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, that's the next sound I'm counting.
06:46Whoa! Skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, as I'm hiking to the mountain.
06:52اتheky! With me.
06:53Kinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, hey!
06:57Kinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, skinkle, hey!
07:00Tweet, tweet, verbal, skinkle, skinkle!
07:02Hey!
07:03Tweet Tweet, verbal, skinkle, skinkle!
07:05That's the sounds we heard today, The sounds that we were counting
07:11All the sounds, in nature.
07:15While we're hiking to the mountains!
07:18While we're hiking to the mountains.
07:21Hey!
07:21While we're hiking to the mountains
07:23While we're hiking to the mountains
07:27While we're hiking to the mountains
07:31Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome
07:33Woodstock Chellapalooza's newest songwriting sensation, Daisy!
07:38I hear, um, I hear, uh, I hear...
07:43Oh, that! I heard that! What was that?
07:46That was the sound of the audience leaving, Daisy. I'm sorry.
07:50Aw, that's a real bummer.
07:52Now I'll never be able to make up my own song.
07:54Follow me.
07:56Are you listening for sounds in my garden to make up your song?
08:00Not exactly. I like to make up my songs in a different way.
08:04But how?
08:05I like to tell a story about the things I see in nature.
08:08Ooh! What kind of story, Squeaks?
08:11This kind of story goes a little something like this, too.
08:16There were three little bees in the garden, hey, hey,
08:18and they were feeling mighty keen.
08:19Ooh! Three little bees in the garden, hey, hey,
08:22then one left to see the queen.
08:24Yeah! They buzzed and buzzed.
08:25Why? Because something was brand new.
08:28They buzzed and buzzed.
08:29Why? Because now there were only two.
08:32Yes!
08:33There were two little bees in the garden, hey, hey,
08:35feeling so alive.
08:37Two little bees in the garden, hey, hey,
08:39then one flew back to the hive.
08:41They buzzed and buzzed.
08:43Why? Because something had been done.
08:45They buzzed and buzzed.
08:47Why? Because now there was only one.
08:50There's one little bee in the garden, hey, hey,
08:52felt like she had to fly.
08:55One little bee in the garden, hey, hey,
08:56it was time to say goodbye.
08:58No one buzzed and buzzed.
09:00Why? Because nothing love of flowers and trees.
09:03No one buzzed and buzzed.
09:04Why? Because there were zero bees.
09:08No little bees in the garden, hey, hey,
09:10no insects all yellow and black.
09:12No little bees in the garden, hey, hey,
09:14but then all three flew back.
09:19The end.
09:20Man, oh man, you just made up a story about nature
09:23in a song.
09:25I need to do that.
09:26Then let's get to it.
09:28Put your wings together for Daisy
09:30with a story song.
09:33A story, okay.
09:34But what can my story be about?
09:37Hmm.
09:38Uh, oh, I got nothing.
09:41I guess I can't be part of Woodstock Cellapalooza.
09:46Come on, Daisy.
09:48We really want you to be a part of Woodstock Cellapalooza.
09:51But Woodstock Cellapalooza is all about making up songs,
09:54and I just can't do it.
09:56Wait a minute.
09:57I have an idea.
09:58Can you write a poem for Woodstock Cellapalooza?
10:00A poem?
10:01Sure.
10:02That I can do.
10:03Oh, I love rhyming.
10:05Hmm.
10:06I love the dirt and the rocks
10:08and the grass and the trees.
10:11Love the birds and the squirrels
10:14and the worms and the...
10:16and the bees.
10:17I love nature as much as...
10:20Squeaks loves cheese.
10:22Ha, ha, ha.
10:25Cheese.
10:26Yes, I love nature.
10:29That will make a terrific song.
10:31But it's not a song, Nature Cat.
10:33It's a poem.
10:34Yes, but it could be lyrics to a song.
10:37It could?
10:38Yeah, lyrics can rhyme just like your poem.
10:41You're a librettist, my dear.
10:42Face it.
10:43We just need to add some music
10:45and your little poem will be transformed
10:47into a fabulous song.
10:49Ooh, how?
10:51Watch and be amazed.
10:53I love the dirt and the rocks
10:55and the grass and the trees.
10:57Love the birds and the squirrels
11:00and the worms and the bees.
11:02That sounds so good.
11:03I love nature as much as Squeaks loves cheese.
11:06Yes, I love nature.
11:09Whoa, is that a song?
11:11Did I really help write a song?
11:13Yeah!
11:14Well, what are we waiting for?
11:17Let's sing my song.
11:18One, two, three.
11:21I love the dirt and the rocks
11:23and the grass and the trees.
11:24Love the birds and the squirrels
11:26and the worms and the bees.
11:27I love nature as much as Squeaks loves cheese.
11:30Yes, I love nature.
11:32Everybody!
11:33I love the dirt and the rocks
11:35and the grass and the trees.
11:36Love the birds and the squirrels
11:38and the worms and the bees.
11:39I love nature as much as Squeaks loves cheese.
11:42Yes, I love nature.
11:45I love the dirt and the rocks
11:47and the grass and the trees.
11:48Love the birds and the squirrels
11:50and the worms and the bees.
11:51I love nature as much as Squeaks loves cheese.
11:54Yes, I love nature.
11:57Yes, I love nature.
12:02And cheese!
12:03Thank you, Woodstock Jellipalooza!
12:07I love writing songs about nature.
12:12Why did the turtle cross the road?
12:19Nature Cat, friend, would you kindly pass the cheese, please?
12:23Here you go, Squeaks!
12:26Thank you, Nature Cat, I appreciate that.
12:28Cheese!
12:32Oh, I just love the pond, baby.
12:36You know why, baby?
12:38Wow, two babies.
12:39Maybe it's because it's so pondy, right, Hal?
12:43Wink, wink.
12:45Granny Bunny, how did you know that I'd say that?
12:47Am I that predictable?
12:49It is so sweet to see our friends here.
12:52Oh, hey, there's Fern the salamander.
12:55And Warren the bullfrog.
12:57And baby duckling.
12:59Huh, you know who we haven't seen today?
13:01Our pal Phoebe the turtle.
13:02Hmm, I wonder where she is.
13:06Oh, there's Phoebe.
13:09Phoebe!
13:12Phoebe!
13:13You cannot cross the road in the middle of traffic.
13:15You certainly cannot.
13:18Oh, but I really have to get across the road right now.
13:21Granny says I can never cross the road without her.
13:23Right, Granny?
13:24Oh, you got that right, sweetie.
13:27Phoebe, why does a turtle have to cross the road anyway?
13:29Oh, I got this joke.
13:32A turtle has to cross the road because it has something to do with that chicken who always has to
13:37cross the road.
13:38And I don't know why.
13:39I don't even know why it's funny.
13:42I really don't.
13:43Every year around this time, I leave the pond and go find a sunny spot by the woods to lay
13:47my eggs.
13:48Huh.
13:48Well, couldn't you lay your eggs in the water like a frog?
13:50Or in a nest like a bird?
13:52Well, a lot of us turtles that live around the pond like to lay our eggs over there by the
13:56woods.
13:57And it was always no problem until they built this new road in the way.
14:02Sorry.
14:03Sorry.
14:04Sorry.
14:04Huh.
14:04Sorry.
14:05Sorry about that.
14:06Too bad they didn't think about the animals that have to cross it before they built it.
14:10It's too late now and I really have to get across, so see you around, I guess.
14:15Stop!
14:15You can't cross the road.
14:17It's too dangerous.
14:19Yeah, you must listen to Granny Bunny.
14:21Oh, but I really need to lay my eggs now.
14:24Sorry.
14:25Sorry.
14:25Fear not, Phoebe.
14:26Nature Cat is here to save the day.
14:29But the question is how.
14:32How shall I save the day?
14:35Ha-ha!
14:37Climb aboard, Phoebe.
14:38The Nature Cat Turtle Transport is open for business.
14:45Hang on tight.
14:47Tally-ho!
14:49This is really high.
14:52Aha!
14:53That was excellent.
14:54Woo-hoo!
14:56Oh, thank you, Nature Cat.
14:58I'll be laying my eggs now.
15:00I bid you adieu, Phoebe.
15:02And happy egg-laying!
15:04Uh, by the way, I should be through in about an hour or two, so I will be needing a
15:09lift
15:09back to the pond.
15:10Not to be, uh, needy.
15:12Sorry.
15:13No problem.
15:16Hello, Phoebe.
15:18Hello, Phoebe.
15:18Sylvia, hi.
15:19How many eggs did you lay?
15:20Seven.
15:21Congrats!
15:22I hope to lay about five myself.
15:24I don't know.
15:26Uh-uh-uh.
15:27Safety first, Sylvia.
15:29Climb aboard the Nature Cat Turtle Transport.
15:34Hold on.
15:35Tally-ho!

16:30may not cross this road it is much too busy what she said
16:35nature catch the future of these turtles has at stake don't you see one of them
16:40can grow up to be a scientist please hey maybe there's another place to cross the
16:51road
16:52no way man this is a one-way street to nowheresville it just goes and goes
16:57guys we gotta think of something I'm thinking a little more information would
17:02be helpful oh you know what it's time for a sweetie
17:27we turtles don't always cross in the same place sometimes across here or here or
17:34even here well we turtles have rights too you know I'm sorry for yelling yeah we
17:41were here first hold on to your shells we'll find a way to make a safe turtle
17:45crossing right Daisy you got it and check this out some roads like these have
17:50bridges for animals so they can walk right over the road yeah it's a bridge oh
17:55how building a bridge might be too difficult okay granny bunny love you
18:00forever in that case there's the tunnel option
18:04the tunnel option right you are gang there is always the turtle tunnel option
18:12so you already said you want to build a turtle tunnel well many successful
18:17tunnel crossings have been built to allow turtles and other small animals to cross
18:21busy roadways safely first thing is to pick a spot that is convenient for the
18:26turtles next simply dig a tunnel under the road and finally just insert a tube to
18:33keep the tunnel from collapsing and there you have it a turtle tunnel yes yes we can do
18:40this we can dig a turtle tunnel so most of us cross right around here then it is
18:47here we shall dig a what hold up while we're building the tunnel we're gonna need
18:52someone else to look after the turtles and make sure they don't cross the road
18:56it's got to be someone responsible and caring and nice and someone who just
19:01might be related to you who might just be so granny and so bunny at all at the
19:06same time oh but who can it be
19:10i'll do it ba-bam yes oh i wish i thought of that oh i love you granny bunny forever

20:28Sorry, sorry for being loud.
20:29Just one moment, my turtle friends, while we properly open the tunnel.
20:34Today is a momentous day! A day of great celebration!
20:37A day that ushers in an era of safety first!
20:42I hereby declare the turtle tunnel officially open!
20:46Um, oh yeah, oh yeah!
20:49Hello, I'm Hal! Welcome to Turtle Tunnel!
20:54Step, lively ladies! Good luck on the other side!
20:58Hello, I'm Hal again! Welcome to Turtle Tunnel again!
21:03You guys are glad it's working! It's really working!
21:07Uh-oh! We have a stray!
21:10Hey, you! Stop! You can't cross there, honey!
21:15Oh, and another turtle's still trying to cross the road down there!
21:18Oh, hey turtle! You can't cross there either, dearie!
21:22Uh, why aren't the turtles using the tunnel?
21:24Ugh, I don't get it! We dug a really nice tunnel! You dig? You get it?
21:29Yeah! It's easy to walk through and save for the turtles!
21:33Maybe the problem is where we put the tunnel!
21:37Hmm... No, man! Uh-uh! The location's perfect! Leads right to the woods!
21:42You're in, you let your eggs, you're out! What's the problem?
21:48Hmm... I've got it! The problem isn't the tunnel! It's getting the turtles to go into the tunnel!
21:54You're right, Nature Cat! Check this out! Hmm... I think we need a fence to funnel the turtles into the
22:00tunnel!
22:01Funnel the turtles into the tunnel! Yes, yes! That's it!
22:04Once we put up a fence, the turtles have to go into the tunnel! Let's go!
22:07Yes, yes! Onward and fenceward!
22:33Welcome to Turtle Tunnel!
22:39Oh, and hey! Other animals can use the tunnel as well! Go ahead, little guy!
22:44How long before the little hatchlings hatch?
22:47Hmm, two months. Could be four! We don't know!
22:50Well, whenever they hatch, they can use the tunnel to make it home safe and sound!
22:54Speaking of home, I think it's time.
22:56You are correct, Squeaks! Our work here is done!
23:00Oh, goodbye, Nature Cat! And thank you for your help! Sorry for the long day!
23:04Glad to be of service, little turtles! Onward and homeward!
23:16Nature Cat, Squeaks, Daisy and Hal are cartoon characters and not real animals!
23:21To keep all of our animal friends safe, check with a grown-up before you bring a pet on your
23:27next nature adventure!
23:28Aha!
23:30Aha!
