00:00Hi, I'm Murray from Sesame Street,
00:03and I'm looking for the word on the street.
00:05What's the word on the street?
00:07Measure.
00:07What does the word measure mean?
00:10Find out how long, tall, or how much something weighs.
00:14What could you use to measure?
00:15I'm measuring tape.
00:16You can measure with a scale.
00:18I would use a ruler, see how long something is.
00:22Keep listening for the word measure today on Sesame Street.
00:25Measure.
00:26That's the word on the street.
00:28Seven, eight, eight.
00:29I mean his top.
00:34Sunny, babe.
00:36Sweep it up, Laraway.
00:41I'm always ready, hair is free.
00:46And you know we all forget how to get to Sesame Street.
00:52Ah, no, no.
00:54Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
01:21Oh boy, I can't wait to see, I can't wait to see.
01:24Okay, okay, hold on.
01:28Okay, ready?
01:33There we go, take a look.
01:36Oh baby, I guess I'm not such a wee little bell anymore, am I?
01:42Way to grow, way to grow.
01:44Hey, welcome to Sesame Street.
01:49Check it out.
01:50You know what that is?
01:51It's a growth chart.
01:53Oh.
01:54Yeah, it measures how tall we are.
01:56And it shows how much we've grown.
01:58Yep, you're right.
01:59Now you see that mark right there?
02:01It shows us how much baby bear has grown from the last time we measured and the time before that.
02:07Wow.
02:08Which one of these is Elmo's line?
02:10Oh buddy, this would be you right here.
02:12The red line with the E for Elmo.
02:14Wow, Elmo used to be that short?
02:16Yeah, and look how much you've grown, buddy.
02:19Wow, cool.
02:21Yeah, and I was always right behind you, Elmo.
02:24Yep.
02:24Every single time.
02:26So, hey buddy, ready to see how tall you are now?
02:28Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:29Oh boy, oh boy.
02:30Excuse Elmo baby.
02:31Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:31All right, all right.
02:33Okay, where, where, where?
02:34Stand up nice and straight.
02:35Nice and straight.
02:36You ready?
02:36Stand up.
02:37Okay, here we go.
02:38You ready?
02:39And, ah, there we are.
02:42Oh, Elmo, let's see.
02:43Uh, oh, oh, that's it?
02:45But that's not, that's not much taller than last time.
02:49Well, buddy, sometimes we grow a lot and sometimes we grow a little.
02:52Hey, Abby, your turn.
02:54Oh boy, oh boy, I can't wait.
02:55Excuse me, Elmo.
02:57This is so great.
02:59Okay, you ready?
03:01All right.
03:02Okay.
03:03Uh, wait, wait.
03:04Great enough.
03:05There we go.
03:06Ready?
03:07Yeah.
03:07Actually, I'll get over here.
03:09Uh-huh.
03:09And, there you go.
03:11Okay.
03:13Wow, look!
03:15I'm so much taller than last time.
03:17You really grew, Abby.
03:19Yeah, you're even taller than Elmo.
03:21But, but, but, Elmo's always been taller than Abby.
03:24This must be a mistake.
03:26Abby, stand back to back to Elmo, okay?
03:28Okay, and no tippy-dolls.
03:30I won't.
03:31Okay.
03:33Okay.
03:33What do you think now, Chris?
03:34Uh, well, let me see.
03:36Uh, okay.
03:37Uh, well, yeah, it looks like Abby is taller than Elmo.
03:41Yeah, yeah.
03:42Yeah, she is.
03:43No doubt about that.
03:44Yeah, she's taller.
03:44Taller.
03:45My mommy did say I had a growth spurt.
03:48Oh, spurt, Abby.
03:50Yeah, growth spurt.
03:51It means you grew a lot in a little bit of time.
03:53Oh, Elmo didn't spurt at all.
03:56And now, Elmo's the shortest.
03:58Well, Chris hasn't measured me yet, but, uh...
04:01But tell him he's taller.
04:02Elmo can tell.
04:03Almost the shortest.
04:05Ah, don't worry, Elmo.
04:06Everyone grows a little differently.
04:08But Elmo really wants to be taller.
04:11Oh, and I know you will be.
04:13Someday.
04:13But, but, Chris, Elmo wants to be taller now.
04:17How can Elmo make himself taller?
04:20Elmo, you, you really can't.
04:23Well, maybe Elmo can.
04:24Be right back.
04:27Aha!
04:29Now Elmo's taller.
04:32Whoa!
04:33Nice wig!
04:34Thank you!
04:35Okay, that is some seriously tall hair.
04:38Oh, excuse, here's that, Maya.
04:39Oh, yeah, sure.
04:40Um, let's see.
04:41Wow.
04:42Yeah.
04:42Whoa, whoa.
04:45See?
04:45It makes Elmo taller.
04:47Okay, Elmo.
04:49Having the big hair does not make you taller, buddy.
04:52No?
04:53Mm-mm.
04:53See, because if you remove the wig, you're still the same.
04:58Wait a minute!
05:00You're taller!
05:01Without the wig!
05:02Elmo told you!
05:03How did you do that?
05:05What happened?
05:06You spurted, Elmo!
05:08No, no, no.
05:08There has to be a reason.
05:10Oh, don't look at Elmo's feet!
05:12Ah, that explains it.
05:13Mmm, high heels.
05:17Surprising, yet very stylish.
05:19Yeah.
05:19No wonder you're taller.
05:21Yeah, and on a joke was a quick trip through Mommy's closet.
05:24Uh, hey, Elmo, points for creativity, but high heels don't count either.
05:29Yeah, you're still the same height, buddy.
05:31But, Chris, Elmo really wants to be taller.
05:33Yeah.
05:33Ah, Elmo, listen to me.
05:35You're going to grow very soon in your own time, okay?
05:39Don't rush it.
05:40Yeah.
05:40Hey, Telly, want to get measured?
05:42Oh, yeah!
05:43My turn!
05:43I almost forgot!
05:44Step wide up, buddy!
05:45Awesome!
05:46Okay, let's see.
05:48Ah!
05:48Oi!
05:49Try again.
05:50Ah!
05:52Alrighty!
05:52You got it?
05:57Elmo, are you okay?
05:59No, Abby.
06:00Elmo doesn't want to be the shortest.
06:03It's not so bad.
06:04I've always been the shortest, and, well, I didn't mind it.
06:08But, Elmo wants to be taller, Abby.
06:10Elmo wishes there was a way to grow fast.
06:13Oh.
06:14Hey!
06:14Abby can grant wishes, right?
06:17Well, that is what we fairies do.
06:19Well, okay, Abby, do a magic spell to make Elmo grow faster?
06:24Oh, I don't know.
06:25Oh, please, please, please, Abby.
06:27Elmo really, really wants to grow tall.
06:29Please, please, please, please, please.
06:30Well, if it's that important to you, well, then I'll give it a try.
06:34Of course, of course.
06:35Thank you, Abby.
06:36Okay.
06:37Go ahead.
06:37Alright, sure thing.
06:39I mean, what could possibly go wrong?
06:42Ha!
06:43Alright.
06:44I got it.
06:45Grow, grow, grow, up you go!
06:50You were supporting, Elmo!
06:52Yeah, yeah, thank you, Abby.
06:53Elmo grow, Elmo grow!
06:55Check it out, Telly.
06:57Yep, you're still the tallest.
06:59Not anymore.
07:01Hey!
07:02Elmo grow.
07:03Measure Elmo again, Chris.
07:04Elmo's taller, right?
07:06It's true.
07:07You did grow.
07:08I mean, no heels, no tippy toes.
07:11Abby did a magic spell.
07:14Abby, little girl, you've got to stop doing these spells
07:18that are messing with the laws of nature.
07:20Mm-hmm.
07:21Something always goes wrong.
07:23But Elmo was so sad and he really wanted to grow.
07:27But he's only three and a half, and look how tall he is.
07:31Ah!
07:31Elmo grew even taller.
07:34That's not supposed to happen.
07:36I got a bad feeling about this.
07:39Here Elmo goes again.
07:44Whoa, cool.
07:46Yeah, baby.
07:48My magic spell is out of control.
07:50You think?
07:52Look!
07:53It is a giant monster.
07:56Wow, Elmo's so tall now.
07:59Oh, Elmo's even taller than the buildings.
08:02Don't worry about it, buddy.
08:03We're going to get you back to normal.
08:05Yeah, yeah.
08:06I'm sure I can undo this spell.
08:07No, no, but Elmo doesn't want Abby to undo it.
08:11Elmo loves being tall.
08:12Yes, but buddy, you're just too tall.
08:15Yeah, like way, way, way too tall.
08:18No way.
08:19Elmo's been short all his life.
08:21Now, Elmo can finally be tall.
08:23Elmo.
08:24Hey, pal.
08:25You've got to let Abby reverse the spell, okay?
08:27No.
08:28Elmo's putting his foot down.
08:30Whoa!
08:31Whoa!
08:32Abby!
08:33Huh?
08:33You've got to reverse the spell.
08:35Fast!
08:35All right, I'm on it.
08:36Okay.
08:37Shrink, shrink, shrink, and a wink.
08:44What happened?
08:45He's still gigantic.
08:47Shrink, shrink, shrink, and a wink.
08:51Nothing.
08:53I better call my mommy.
08:56Oh, mommy.
08:57Yeah, mommy.
08:58I made Elmo really, really tall,
09:01and now I can't get him short again.
09:03Uh-huh.
09:03Uh-huh.
09:05Uh-huh.
09:05Uh-huh.
09:06Okay, mommy.
09:08Thanks.
09:10What did she say?
09:11Well, she says that he's got to want to go back to his normal size.
09:16Yeah, but how do we get him to want to be short again?
09:19Maybe we can convince him that being enormous is not a good idea.
09:22How do we do that?
09:24Maybe we just need to show him all the things that he won't be able to do.
09:27Well, there's all the things we'll miss out on by being so humongously tall.
09:32Uh-huh.
09:32I catch your drift, my friend.
09:34Leave it to me.
09:36Hey, everybody.
09:37Who's up for a wowsing game of jump rope?
09:41Oh, sounds like fun.
09:43Yes and I.
09:44Yeah.
09:45How about you, Elmo?
09:47Well, sure.
09:48Elmo loves jumping rope.
09:50Okay, great.
09:51Well, Telly and I will turn the rope and you jump in, okay?
09:55Okay.
09:55Okay.
09:56Here you go, Telly.
09:57You take that in.
09:58Okay.
09:58Oh, waitie.
09:59Oh, wait, Elmo.
10:01Jump on in any time, buddy.
10:04But, uh, Elmo can.
10:06Elmo won't fit.
10:08Well, looks like you're too tall for jump rope, buddy.
10:12Sorry.
10:13Oh, but, but, but Elmo can, Elmo can still jump without a rope, like this.
10:18Jump.
10:18Jump.
10:19Jump.
10:20Ah!
10:21No more jumping!
10:26This mouth dude is going to destroy the city.
10:30Why do you keep doing that with your mouth?
10:32I don't know.
10:32I saw it in a movie.
10:33Seemed like the thing to do.
10:35There's gotta be something else we can try.
10:39Don't worry.
10:40I got an idea.
10:42Um, hey, how would you all like to play hide and seek, huh?
10:46Yeah, yeah.
10:47That's good.
10:48That works.
10:49Hey, Elmo.
10:50You wanna play?
10:51Yeah.
10:51And seek is Elmo's all-time favorite game.
10:55All right, then.
10:56You all go hide and I'll seek.
11:00Okay.
11:01I'm gonna get you.
11:02I'm gonna get you.
11:04Ready?
11:06Okay.
11:07One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
11:14Ready or not, here I come.
11:18Oh, found you, Elmo.
11:20You're behind the table.
11:21Aw, no fair.
11:22There was no good place for Elmo to hide.
11:25Yep.
11:26It's gotta be tough finding a hiding spot when you're that tall.
11:28I guess this isn't the game for you.
11:30No.
11:31No.
11:31But Elmo loves hide and seek.
11:33Gee, Elmo can't play hide and seek or jump rope.
11:37Elmo can't do a lot of things when he's this size.
11:41I think he's starting to get the picture.
11:43Yeah, yeah, and I have one more idea that just might help him decide, okay?
11:47Oh, hey, guys, after all this excitement, I think we could use a snack, right?
11:52Oh, yeah.
11:53Yeah, absolutely.
11:54Come on.
11:55Come on.
11:56Hey, Elmo, I got some nice fresh banana pudding.
12:00Come on.
12:02What banana pudding?
12:03Elmo's favorite.
12:06Oh, after you, Elmo.
12:08Okay.
12:12Elmo can't.
12:13Oh, no.
12:15What's the matter, buddy?
12:17Elmo can't fit inside of Hoopers.
12:20Yeah, that's true.
12:21But Elmo loves eating in Hoopers.
12:24And if Elmo is this tall, Elmo can never eat in Hoopers again.
12:29I guess not.
12:31Boy, this makes Elmo really sad.
12:35Maybe Elmo's too tall.
12:38I think you're right, buddy.
12:40Boy, Elmo could really use a hug right now.
12:43But Elmo's too tall for that, too.
12:46Nobody's arms can reach.
12:49Yeah.
12:50Elmo really thought he wanted to be tall.
12:53But now Elmo wishes he didn't want to grow at all.
12:57But Elmo, growing taller is a part of growing up.
13:00And it's great.
13:01It just takes time.
13:03Just be patient, okay?
13:04You're going to grow a little bit, and then a little bit, and a little bit more.
13:07And then one day, you're going to be all grown up.
13:09Chris, Elmo wants to go back to Elmo's normal size.
13:13And wait till Elmo grows taller.
13:15But not too tall.
13:17Well, okay then, buddy.
13:18Hey, Abby.
13:19Guys, come on.
13:20Abby, Elmo wants to reverse the spell.
13:22Come on out.
13:22Come on out.
13:23All right.
13:24Okay, then.
13:26Well, it's about time.
13:28I know.
13:29Are you ready?
13:30Ready, Abby?
13:31Okay.
13:33Shrink, shrink, shrink, and I'll wait.
13:41It went Elmo's back to normal.
13:44Yay!
13:46Boy, it was fun being super-sized, but Elmo likes being Elmo's size more.
13:52Hey, how about that hug you wanted, huh?
13:54Oh, yes.
13:55Yeah, come here.
13:55Yeah, baby.
13:56Big hug!
13:59Let me get in there.
14:00Boy, Elmo may be short, but he loves big hugs.
14:05Now, just stay this way, okay?
14:09Hello, I'm Drew.
14:10Oh, and Elmo's Elmo.
14:11And we are here to tell you all about the word...
14:14Measure!
14:15That's right, measure.
14:17Now, I play football, and they measure all the time in football.
14:20Oh, that's true.
14:21They use those orange chain thingies, right?
14:24That's right.
14:24They do, Elmo.
14:25Well, tell everyone what measure means, Mr. Drew.
14:27Okay.
14:28The word measure means to use a tool to find out how long or tall something is.
14:32Well, can Elmo and Mr. Drew measure right now?
14:35Absolutely.
14:36What should we measure?
14:37Oh, well, Mr. Drew, can you measure Elmo?
14:40That's a great idea, Elmo.
14:42And I have my ruler to do it.
14:44Oh, cool.
14:44So let's measure how tall you are.
14:46Yeah, measure Elmo.
14:46Okay, here we go.
14:47Elmo is 24 inches tall.
14:51Yay!
14:52Wow!
14:52Well, Elmo just got measured by a ruler.
14:55Yeah, you did, Elmo.
14:56But, you know, you don't just have to measure with a ruler.
14:59You don't?
14:59No.
15:00What you talking about, Mr. Drew?
15:01What I'm talking about is you can measure with just about anything.
15:05Really?
15:05Yeah.
15:06Well, like what?
15:06Well, like a potato.
15:08A potato?
15:10Sure.
15:11Mr. Drew, get out of town.
15:12Watch this.
15:12Now, watch this.
15:13You are one, two, three, four potatoes tall, Elmo.
15:19Okay, so Elmo can get measured with a potato.
15:23Right, but that's not all you can measure.
15:25Oh, really?
15:26What else?
15:26We can measure with a tube of toothpaste.
15:29Oh, cool.
15:30Well, go ahead.
15:30So here we go.
15:31We'll see how tall you are.
15:32You are one, two, three tubes of toothpaste tall.
15:36Oh, cool.
15:37So Elmo can get measured with a potato and a tube of toothpaste.
15:42Cool.
15:42Yes, but wait, I'm not finished.
15:44Oh, you're not?
15:44You can also measure with...
15:46What?
15:46A football.
15:47Really?
15:48Yes, watch this.
15:49Okay, okay.
15:49Elmo is one...
15:50Measuring with a football.
15:51...two, three footballs tall.
15:54Wow!
15:55You're almost big enough to make the team!
15:58Wow!
15:59Oh, measure!
16:08Cookie Monster!
16:10Oh, Cookie Monster!
16:12Come get your cookies!
16:16Cookies!
16:17For me!
16:18Yes, Cookie Monster!
16:20But it's not me birthday.
16:22Oh, I know it's not your birthday, but it is time for the letter of the day.
16:26What does that have to do with cookies?
16:28Well, you know how you always say cookies?
16:30You can eat the letter of the day.
16:31What made the occasion on Nibble?
16:33Yeah, well, now you can eat all these cookies instead.
16:38Yep, there are just enough cookies here for you to eat, so I tell everyone about the
16:43letter of the day.
16:45Me like how you think we're doing.
16:47Good!
16:48So let us begin.
16:49Yeah.
16:50Now, the letter of the day is a very, very good one.
16:54It is the right player of the alphabet, and it starts...
16:58All done.
16:58What?
16:59You're done?
17:00What?
17:01You're done?
17:02But, but, I didn't even get to tell everyone that the letter of the day is the letter Z!
17:07So?
17:08Well, I didn't get to say that the letter Z begins to work like Zipper!
17:13And you!
17:15And this Z!
17:16Yeah, well, it's okay, Perry.
17:18Let's get me more cookies!
17:20But, I do not have any more cookies.
17:22No more cookies?
17:24No, that's all I made.
17:25That's me so hungry!
17:27Make me have to eat something!
17:28There's got to be something!
17:29No, no, no!
17:30You don't have to eat anything!
17:31No, wait!
17:31Don't take lunch!
17:33Don't take lunch!
17:34Don't take lunch!
17:35Don't take lunch!
17:36Don't take lunch!
17:36Don't take lunch!
17:39Oh, yeah!
17:41Homemade!
17:46Mova!
17:49Z!

18:35Hey, Nathan, what's up next?
18:37Ab is flying fairy school.
18:39Booyah!
18:46Look up high in the sky.
18:48It's a school it can fly.
18:50Let's go.
18:51Hurry to the flying fairy school.
18:53Grab your wine.
18:55Bring your wings.
18:57We will learn magic things.
18:59Let's go.
19:00Hurry to the flying fairy school.
19:03How to make us grow.
19:06And how to make us shrink.
19:09Yay!
19:10How to solve a problem with a single twinkle boom.
19:13This school is really magic.
19:16It's magic really cool.
19:17Let's go in.
19:19Let's begin.
19:19It's flying fairy school.
19:34Oh, hello.
19:37Welcome to flying fairy school.
19:39It's picture day, so get ready for your closer.
19:43Whee!
19:44Ooh.
19:44Yeah!
19:49Oh, yeah.
19:51Oh, oh!
19:51Oh, yeah!
19:52Oh, yeah!
19:53Oh, yeah!
19:58We're gonna take a little.
20:02Oh, yeah!
20:03Oh, yeah!
20:04Oh, yeah.
20:04We'll see.
20:04Look over, you.
20:05Oh!
20:06Oh, yeah.
20:18Looking fierce, Peck, and Gonnigan.
20:23Gonnigan? Where's Gonnigan?
20:26He's Gonnigan.
20:28Oh, dear.
20:31Yikes!
20:32Gonnigan? What's wrong?
20:34It's my hair. It's a mess. I can't take a picture looking like this.
20:40Now, Gonnigan, just calm down. I'm sure it's not that bad.
20:45Whoa!
20:54It is that bad. See?
20:58Don't worry, we can fix this. Abby, you help Gonnigan fix his hair,
21:03and I'll try and fix the camera.
21:08Right. Just leave it to me, Gonnigan.
21:12Abracadoo! Abracadilly! Bring us a jar of the best hair jelly!
21:19Ah! What is that?
21:22Don't worry, Gonnigan. It's Rapunzel brand hair gel.
21:26My mommy uses it before she goes to work. Here you go!
21:30Oh, careful, Abby. Rapunzel gel works differently on every fairy.
21:36I use just a tiny dot to keep my hair sunflower soft.
21:41Whoa!
21:42Well, with all your hair, Gonnigan, you'll probably need more than a dot.
21:48You sure this is a good idea, Abby?
21:51What could possibly go wrong?
21:54Voila!
21:58Wow! My hair looks awesome! Thanks!
22:10Ah! Who shut out the lights?
22:12Oh, I think it made your hair grow!
22:15My hair's growing? How long is it?
22:18Hang on! I will measure it!
22:20With nibblets?
22:22Sure! I always measure in gerbilcorns!
22:25Let's measure nibs!
22:36Your hair is exactly three gerbilcorns long!
22:41Oh?
22:42Oh?
22:43Oh!
22:44Oh!
22:44Oh!
22:47Oh!
22:48Oh! My hair's out of control!
22:50Uh-oh!
22:50We better do something!
22:52What's twinkle thing?
22:54It's too early!
22:56I never think before noon!
22:57Fine, I'll do it myself!
22:59What can you do to control messy hair?
23:02Uh, twinkle thing, twinkle thing...
23:05Oh!
23:07I got it!
23:08When my hair is a mess, I use barrettes!
23:15Thanks!
23:16Problem solved!
23:17Now let's take a class picture!
23:25Okay!
23:27Not exactly solved!
23:29I think my hair grew longer again!
23:31Let's measure!
23:34Oop!
23:35Oop!
23:36Oop!
23:38Oop!
23:39Oop!
23:39Oop!
23:40Oop!
23:41Definitely longer!
23:42Your hair is now five gerbilcorns long!
23:46Oh no!
23:47That's two more gerbilcorns!
23:49It's growing!
23:50Somebody think of something!
23:52Alright!
23:52Alright!
23:53I'll give it a try!
23:55Wake up brain!
23:56We got some thinking to do!
23:58What else can you do to control messy hair?
24:01Twinkle think!
24:03Twinkle think!
24:05Twinkle think!
24:06I got it!
24:08My great-great-grandfather, Blograham Stinkin' has messy hair!
24:13And he covered it up with...
24:15A hat!
24:19There!
24:20That'll teach those fantastical follicles!
24:23Good thinking, Blog!
24:25Ha ha!
24:26Now we can take that picture!
24:32Ah!
24:33There it grows again!
24:35Let's measure!
24:37One!
24:38Two!
24:39Three!
24:40Four!
24:42Five!
24:43Six!
24:44Seven!
24:45Garnigan's hair is now seven gerbilcorns long!
24:49Yikes!
24:52I mean...
24:54Eight!
24:56Nine gerbilcorns long!
25:00I mean...
25:02Ten!
25:03Eleven!
25:04Twelve gerbilcorns long!
25:07That's a lot of gerbilcorns!
25:10And a lot of hair!
25:13Yikes!
25:14Oh!
25:15This is the worst bad hair day ever!
25:18Ooh!
25:18Uh-oh!
25:19Uh-oh!
25:23Whoa!
25:27Whoa!
25:32Mrs. Sparklenose!
25:34The barrettes in the hat didn't work!
25:36We can't control Garnigan's hair!
25:39Well...
25:39What about it?
25:40Can't you control?
25:42They keep growing!
25:44Well...
25:45Maybe that's the question!
25:46How can you control the length of Garnigan's hair?
25:50Let's twinkle think!
25:52Twinkle think!
25:53Twinkle think!
25:54Twinkle think!
25:55Twinkle think!
25:56Twinkle think!
25:56Okay!
25:57Garnigan's hair keeps getting longer, but he wants to make it shorter!
26:01How do you make hair shorter?
26:03You put a giant squid on your head and do the cha-cha!
26:06No!
26:07You get a haircut!
26:10I guess if there's no squid...
26:11And who do you go to when you need a haircut?
26:16A barber!
26:18But hurry!
26:19I think it's starting to grow again!
26:22Ooh!
26:22I'm gonna need your help!
26:24Raise your magic wand!
26:26Or your finger!
26:27Now, say barber with me three times!
26:31Barber!
26:32Barber!
26:32Barber!
26:33Barber!
26:35Barber!
26:35What are you, huh?
26:37Barber!
26:38Barber!
26:38Mamma mia!
26:41Barber!
26:41Don't tell me!
26:42You use the Rapunzel gel?
26:44Mm-hmm!
26:44No!
26:45Don't worry!
26:46Papino the Pixie knows just what to do!
26:58And presto, I give you the picture day special.
27:03How long is my hair now?
27:07One jabber going on.
27:09Oh, just like it should be.
27:12Now it's time for me to cut out of here.
27:15Get it?
27:16Cut.
27:17I'm a barber.
27:24Oh, thank you, Mr. Barber.
27:27Okay, class.
27:29Picture time.
27:30Yay!
27:35It's perfect.
27:37What a wonderful class.
27:42One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
27:48Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.
27:55One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
28:14Ten, two, three, four, five, four.
28:36Two, three, four, five.
28:41Seven, eight, nine, ten, ten doggy kisses, ten.
28:58Hey, Mika, what's coming up next?
29:01Superdome!
29:02Oh, boy!
29:07He observes.
29:14He questions.
29:16How about what?
29:20He investigates.
29:22What does this button do?
29:26Super Grover 2.0.
29:29He shows up.
29:38At a rodent restaurant in Red Hook, a little mouse is about to face a very cheesy problem.
29:46One large of Swiss cheese coming right up.
30:06Oh, no.
30:08Oh, no.
30:09How am I going to get this cheese to my customer?
30:17Super Grover 2.0, you showed up.
30:21I'm available for both takeout and delivery.
30:25So what seems to be the problem?
30:26I can't get this cheese to my customer in the other room.
30:30Then it is time to unleash the powers of observation.
30:39Aha!
30:41My super powers of observation tell me that you cannot get the cheese to your customer
30:46because this door is in the way.
30:48There is only one thing to do.
30:49What?
30:50Break down this door.
30:51Wait.
30:52Wait.
30:52No, no.
30:53Wait.
30:53I think I sprained my super body.
30:58Super Grover, you don't have to break down this door.
31:02It opens.
31:05Why did you not tell me that in the first place?
31:08In that case, we will simply open the door, get the cheese, and carry it out to the customer.
31:16Oh, wow.
31:18My powers of observation now tell me that this door swings shut on its own.
31:24That's the trouble.
31:26It won't stay open.
31:28So the question is, what can help keep a swinging door open?
31:34Stand back.
31:35It is now time to unleash the power of investigation.
31:42Aha!
31:43I got it.
31:44What?
31:44We can put something in front of the door to keep it from closing.
31:48Like what?
31:49Like this.
31:51A marshmallow?
31:52Watch and be amazed.
31:54All right.
31:56Put this down here.
31:58And get the cheese.
32:00And here I come.
32:02Oh!
32:03Where's my wedge of cheese?
32:05The marshmallow didn't work.
32:07Your cheese isn't coming.
32:09Yes, it is.
32:11We just need to investigate some more.
32:14Perhaps this marshmallow was too small and light to hold open a door.
32:19Perhaps what we need is something big and heavy.
32:22Let me check my sock.
32:26Here's something.
32:29You keep a piano in your sock?
32:32I buy them one size bigger for that very purpose.
32:37Give me a hand, will you?
32:39That's it!
32:44This cheese gets heavy after a while.
32:47Aha!
32:48It worked!
32:49But Super Grover, it's too big.
32:52The piano completely blocks the doorway.
32:55Oh, I might as well just give up.
32:57Let's close the restaurant.
32:59No, no, no, no.
33:00Do not be silly.
33:01I know just what to do.
33:03Kick!
33:04Yeah!
33:05Quickly now!
33:06Oh!
33:08That is it, door!
33:09I am tired of being pushed around by you.
33:11Now stay open!
33:14Ow!
33:15Oh!
33:17The door didn't hit you.
33:18What happened?
33:19Down there!
33:23Hey!
33:24Your foot is wedged under the crack in the door.
33:29Super Grover, you're a genius!
33:32I am?
33:33I mean, I am, yes!
33:35Why am I a genius exactly?
33:37Because you found a way to keep the door open.
33:40We need to wedge something underneath it.
33:43But my super toes cannot take that kind of punishment!
33:47Ouch!
33:48No, not your toes.
33:50We need to find something else to wedge underneath the door.
33:53Then it is time to unleash the power of technology!
33:59Let me check my utility sock.
34:02Oh no!
34:03I cannot find a tool to wedge under the door!
34:06Where's my wedge of cheese?
34:07Where can we find a wedge?
34:09I want my wedge of cheese!
34:12The wedge of cheese!
34:15Yeah, look!
34:17The cheese is thin on one side and thick on the other!
34:21The cheese is a wedge!
34:23Let's just give it a try!
34:24Okay!
34:27Put this under here and...
34:31It works!
34:33The cheese wedge the door opened!
34:36Now we can go in and out with no problem!
34:40That's great!
34:41But where's my cheese?
34:43Oh!
34:44Oh yes!
34:45Right!
34:46Be right back!
34:47And so Super Grover learned that a wedge is a tool that is shaped just right to hold a door
34:53open.
34:53Ta-da!
34:57Perhaps I can interest you in a lovely fruit cocktail instead?
35:05It's almost time for Elmo, but right now we're gonna play What's Missing?
35:11I'm all ready to go skateboarding!
35:13Or am I?
35:14Take a close look and find out what's missing!
35:20See it?
35:22Check it out!
35:24Yes!
35:25I'm missing a wheel!
35:27Great job!
35:28Now keep watching, cause Elmo's on the way!
35:31I'm gonna go get a new wheel!
35:35Measure, yeah measure!
35:37See, I never thought that I could ever find out
35:42Just how big a jumbo shrimp could be
35:46But now I'm sure and I don't have a doubt
35:51If you wanna note the size, I hold the key
35:56Just how long or how tall
35:58Justin can tell you it all
36:00Cause he's got the right tool
36:02Got a rule like that will you see!

36:19This shrimp is one foot and one inch
36:21Measure up, measure up, up, up, up, up
36:23Measure, yeah measure
36:25I thought that I would ever tell you
36:29Just how much an elephant weighs
36:33But now I hold the secret and you know it's true
36:37If you want to know the weight I will amaze
36:43Just how heavy a light
36:45Justin will get it right
36:47He's not gonna fail
36:49Cause he's using a scale
36:51You see
36:53I will measure, I'll measure
36:56Till the measuring's done
36:57Until the measuring's done
37:00He will measure
37:03I will measure, I'll measure
37:06This pack of dirt weighs a ton
37:08Measure up, measure, measure, measure up
37:10Bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop
37:12Here we go
37:13So you got this, bro?
37:14Yeah, JB, leave it to Elmo
37:15When Elmo's in the kitchen cooking things up
37:18Elmo measures with a spoon, Elmo measures with a cup
37:21When Elmo needs to know the height of something with a brick
37:23Elmo measures with some tape, Elmo measures with a stick
37:25To see what weighs more, a mouse or a whale
37:28Elmo measures with a bench, Elmo measures with a scale
37:30The whale weighs more, yes, this is so
37:32How do you know?
37:34Elmo measured it, yeah!
37:36If you ever, you ever
37:40Need to find the size of the weight
37:42Measure up, measure, measure, measure up, measure up
37:45You can measure, yeah, measure
37:48Cause measuring this stuff is great
37:51Measure up, measure, measure, measure up, measure up

38:36Wow.
38:37Oh, hi.
38:38Welcome to Elmo's World.
38:40Elmo is so happy to see you, and so is Dorothy.
38:43Say hello, Dorothy.
38:47Guess what Elmo's thinking about today.
38:49You can do this.
38:54What do you think, Shade Baby?
39:01What do you think, Drawer darling?
39:07Go on with you.
39:13Hair.
39:14You know, hair.
39:19Where didündine?
39:28B
39:30Why?
39:30Right.
39:32or
39:40Was Кол
39:58Oh, look, Dorothy's been thinking about hair, too.
40:02What?
40:03Huh?
40:03Oh, OK.
40:04And Dorothy has a question.
40:06How do you brush your hair?
40:08Good question, Dorothy.
40:10Let's ask Mr. Noodle.
40:12Mr. Noodle?
40:14Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
40:16She, she, she, she, she, don't mess up almost here.
40:20Oh, thank you.
40:22Oh, look.
40:23It's Mr. Noodle's brother, Mr. Noodle.
40:26Hi, Mr. Noodle.
40:27Hi.
40:28Oh, Mr. Noodle, how do you brush your hair?
40:31How do you brush your hair, Mr. Noodle?
40:34Tell us how.
40:36Yeah.
40:36Or show us how.
40:38Yeah, your hair, Mr. Noodle.
40:44You can't brush your hair with a paintbrush.
40:47No, you can't brush your hair with that, Mr. Noodle.
40:51That's a paintbrush.
40:52That's not how you brush your hair.
40:55Mr. Noodle, go get a hairbrush.
40:58Mr. Noodle.
41:01Brush a broom.
41:04Mr. Noodle.
41:06You don't brush your hair with a broom.
41:08You use a broom to sleep the floor.
41:13No, you have to use a comb.
41:16Or a brush.
41:17He has another idea.
41:22No, Mr. Noodle, that's a toothbrush.
41:25You can't brush your hair with a toothbrush.
41:28No, you'll get germs in your hair from your teeth.
41:31Your hair, a hairbrush, Mr. Noodle.
41:33Yeah, so you need a hairbrush.
41:37Hairbrush.
41:39Yay!
41:41Yay!
41:42Yay!
41:43That's how you do your hair, Mr. Noodle.
41:45Yeah, that's it.
41:46That's a hairbrush, Mr. Noodle.
41:48Now, show us how you brush your hair.
41:51That's a long hair.
41:53Very long.
41:54Mr. Noodle, it's going to take a long time
41:57to brush your hair that way.
41:59That's one way to brush your hair, Mr. Noodle.
42:01Well, the one good way.
42:09What?
42:10Oh, good idea, Dorothy.
42:13Dorothy thinks we should ask someone else.
42:16How do you brush your hair?
42:18Good question, Dorothy.
42:24This is how I brush my hair, Dorothy.
42:33Dorothy, I don't use a brush.
42:35I use a comb.
42:41Dorothy, I use a pick.
42:50I use a brush.
42:51Thank you, Dorothy.
42:52Now, Elmo will ask a baby.
42:57Oh, hi, baby.
42:59Oh, baby, how do you brush your hair?
43:07Wait a minute.
43:09You don't have a lot of hair to brush.
43:12That's cool.
43:15Thank you, baby.
43:17Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
43:24ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
43:24Oh, Elmo has lots of hair all over Elmo's body.
43:29It's called fur, and it needs lots of brushing.
43:32Hey, Elmo has a question for you.
43:37How many hairbrushes does it take to brush Elmo's fur?
43:41Let's count them and see.
43:43One.
43:43One.
43:44One hairbrush.
43:45Two.
43:46Two hairbrushes.
43:48Three.
43:49Three.
43:50Four.
43:51Four.
43:53Five.
43:54Six.
43:57Oh, oh, oh, oh, six tickling hairbrushes, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
44:01And one tickle is Elmo, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
44:04Great counting, everybody, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
44:08Oh, boy.
44:09Elmo has lots of hair to brush, but not everything has hair.
44:14Elmo wants to know what has hair and what doesn't.
44:18Let's find out.
44:21Drawer?
44:22Where are you, Drawer?
44:24Drawer, where are you?
44:26There you are.
44:27Come down here now, Drawer.
44:29Come on.
44:32You're such a silly Drawer.
44:37Do birthday cakes have hair?
44:39No.
44:41Do mailboxes have hair?
44:43No.
44:45Too bad.
44:47Elmo thought it looked nice.
44:49Thank you very much.
44:51Do horses have hair?
44:53Yes.
44:54But not that kind of hair.
44:57Horse hair.
44:58Do tortoises have hair?
45:00No.
45:01What?
45:02You never heard of the tortoise and the hare?
45:05Uh-uh.
45:06That's a joke.
45:07I don't get it either.
45:09I'm going home.
45:18Where did everybody go?
45:23Oh.
45:24Thank you, TV.
45:26There you are.
45:28Boy, this is a lot of hair to take care of.
45:31Elmo needs a haircut.
45:34Elmo's friend, Joseph, just got his very first haircut and told Elmo all about it.
45:45Joseph's mom took him to get his very first haircut because his hair was getting too long.
45:52Joseph had never been to a barber shop before and didn't know what to expect.
45:58Mario the barber was very nice.
46:01He put Joseph in a special chair and then he put a cape around him.
46:09The barber's chair was really neat.
46:12It went up, going up, and down, and around, and around.
46:26Joseph really liked the chair.
46:28Then it was time for the haircut.
46:31Joseph was a little scared.
46:33He never had a haircut before.
46:37There was a bigger boy in the chair next to him having his hair cut.
46:42And he wasn't scared.
46:45So Joseph decided to let Mario go ahead and cut his hair.
46:51Mario cut, and he cut, and he cut, until he was all through.
47:03Joseph's mommy really liked the haircut.
47:07And so did Joseph.
47:09Mario had it just the way they wanted it.
47:13Cool haircut, Joseph.
47:16Elmo likes it too.
47:19Oh look, Mr. Noodle is still brushing his hair.
47:23Oh, looking good, Mr. Noodle.
47:25Keep brushing.
47:28But Elmo, Elmo still wants to find out more.
47:32More about hair.
47:33But how can Elmo find out more?
47:35Hmm.
47:38Oh yeah, good idea, TV.
47:40We can watch the Hair Channel.
47:44Turn on.
47:46You're watching the Hair Channel.
47:49All hair, all the time.
47:51And now, hair's our story.
47:53The kingdom where everybody's hair looked the same.
47:57Once upon a time there was a kingdom where everybody's hair looked the same.
48:02I, your king, hereby decree that everyone should wear their hair just like mine.
48:08And everyone did.
48:10The royal chef wore her hair just like the king's.
48:14The royal jester wore his hair just like the king.
48:17Even the royal hamster wore hair just like the king's.
48:21Everyone in the entire kingdom wore their hair just like the king's.
48:26Everyone, that is, except for little Liddy LaRue.
48:30Little girl, why doesn't your hair look the same as mine?
48:34I'm sorry, your majesty.
48:36But no matter what I do, my hair won't go that way.
48:39It's just different.
48:41Besides, I like it this way.
48:43I really like it.
48:44But this is the kingdom where everybody's hair looks the same.
48:50You can't have hair that looks different.
48:52But your majesty, what's wrong with everybody having different hairstyles?
48:58What's wrong with it?
49:00I'll tell you what's wrong with it.
49:04Nothing.
49:05So the king made a new decree.
49:08I, your king, hereby decree that from now on everybody can wear their hair any way they want.
49:18And everybody did.
49:19They wore their hair in all different kinds of styles and colors.
49:23And they all looked good.
49:25Even the king got a new style.
49:27And that looked good, too.
49:30Hey, bald is beautiful.
49:33And soon there were so many different beautiful hairstyles that they had to rename the kingdom
49:39the kingdom where everyone has different hairstyles.
49:43The end.
49:44Coming up next, From Hair to Eternity, followed by When Harry Met Sally.
49:50Thank you, TV.
49:53Oh, and really nice hair.
49:55Oh, Elmo loves all different kinds of hair.
49:59Straight, curly, short, long.
50:02Hmm.
50:03What's the longest hair in the world?
50:05Excuse Elmo.
50:06Whoa.
50:07Go, look.
50:10You want to see the world's longest hair?!
50:13Yeah.
50:13You try!
50:15Win!
50:20Sorry.
50:21Wow.
50:23This hair is really long.
50:25Who are you?!
50:27Oh, well, I'm Rapunzel.
50:29You know, from the story of Rapunzel?
50:31Huh?
50:31I'm the one who was locked in the tall tower, and people had to climb up my hair to get
50:36in.
50:37You know, like that.
50:39Oh, yeah. Elmo loves that story, and so does Dorothy.
50:44Oh, look, look. Dorothy's imagining Elmo in the story of Rapunzel.
50:50Oh, boy, oh, boy. It's really lonely in this tower.
50:55Somebody get Rapunzel out of here. Help! Somebody help!
50:59Help!
51:01Do not worry, fair Rapunzel. I, the very handsome prince, will save you.
51:10Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.
51:14Okay.
51:17Here I come to save the fair Rapunzel.
51:22Okay.
51:26Oh, it's all right.
51:27Here I come.
51:33Hey.
51:36Oh, thank goodness you're here.
51:38Now Rapunzel can get out of this tower.
51:41Yeah. But how?
51:43Like this. Come on.
51:45What's the crown?
51:48Okay.
51:50Gotcha.
51:52Yeah.
51:53Looking good.
51:54You like this?
51:55Looking good.
51:56I don't know if it's my style.
51:57See ya.
51:58Oh, bye.
51:59Is this conditionable?
52:01Oh, oh.
52:03Oh, oh.
52:04Oh.
52:06Oh.
52:06Oh, Rapunzel's free.
52:08Yay.
52:09Woo-hoo.
52:10Oh, thank you, prince.
52:11Thank you very much.
52:12Bye-bye.
52:12Yes.
52:13You're welcome.
52:15Goodbye.
52:16Wait a minute.
52:17No, I'm stuck in this tower.
52:19Rapunzel, come back.
52:21Bring a ladder.
52:22Yoo-hoo, Rapunzel, and a hairbrush, and a moose.
52:26Yoo-hoo.
52:27Oh.
52:29Oh.
52:30Well, um, that's not exactly how the story goes, but, uh, I liked it.
52:36Oh, good.
52:36That fish of yours has some imagination.
52:39She sure does.
52:40Yes.
52:40Well, anyway, I've got to go.
52:42I have an appointment at the beauty parlor.
52:45I'm thinking of wearing my hair up, way up.
52:48See you, Elmo.
52:49Oh, bye, Rapunzel.
52:51Bye.
52:52Oh, what?
52:53Oh, oh, dear.
52:54Oh, sorry.
52:56Oh, boy.
52:57Oh, that's the third time this week.
53:00Oh, thank you.
53:00Are you all right, Elmo?
53:02Oh, yeah.
53:02Oh, I'm so sorry about my hair.
53:04Tell you what, I'll leave that way.
53:06Okay.
53:06Okay, bye, Elmo.
53:08Bye.
53:08Bye.
53:09Bye, Rapunzel.
53:10Wow.
53:11Oh, boy, Rapunzel sure has really long hair.
53:15Elmo has a friend who has really short hair, Bert.
53:19Elmo loves Bert's hair.
53:21That's why Elmo made a video about Bert's hair with this camera.
53:26It's called Bert's Hair by Elmo.
53:30TV, TV, where are you?
53:32Oh, there you are, TV.
53:33Put yourself on.
53:37Elmo, what's going on?
53:38I was taking a bath, and now what?
53:40What do you want me to do?
53:41Oh, just hold still, Bert.
53:43What?
53:43I just, what?
53:44What do you, what?
53:45Just hold still.
53:46Okay.
53:47Okay?
53:47All right.
53:51Here we go.
53:53There.
53:54See, this is Bert's hair.
53:56See how it sticks up all by itself?
53:58Well, I just took a bath, of course.
53:59I washed it.
54:00Oh, well, Elmo loves Bert's hair.
54:02Oh, oh, can, can, can, can Elmo touch Bert's hair?
54:05No, no, I still have to put that gunk on it first.
54:07Oh, please, Bert, please.
54:09All right, Elmo.
54:10Okay.
54:15Did you enjoy yourself?
54:16Oh, thanks, Bert.
54:19Are you finished now?
54:20No, no, and that's Bert's hair by Elmo.
54:23Now Elmo's finished, but now we get to play.
54:26Come on, Bert.
54:26No, I've got to put some gunk in my hair and comb it now.
54:29Oh, Elmo.
54:30Oh, come on, Bert.
54:33Bert.
54:34Oh, thank you, TV.
54:36Elmo loves hair.
54:37So does Dorky.
54:39That's why Dorky wants us to sing the hair song.
54:44You okay, TV?
54:46What's wrong?
54:50Oh, you want to dance and sing, too?
54:53Okay.

55:12Hair hair hair hair.
55:14Oh look, Mr. Susan's early finishing brushing his hair.
55:18Hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair.
55:22Say goodbye Jonathan.
55:27Say goodbye Principal.
55:29Goodbye everybody.
55:30Bye.
55:31I think I have another control now.
55:33Oh, it's very nice.
55:53Okay, okay, Slimy. Although I do enjoy your pestering. I'll read your book.
56:01All right, here we go. Chapter 269 in The Adventures of Trash Gordon.
56:09When we last left our hero, he was on the planet snoring a lot, trying to get some sleep. Even
56:16heroes need some shut eyes.
56:18Unfortunately, all the snoritions were snoring. Even the pillows and blankets were snoring.
56:26It was a sight for snore eyes. How would Trash ever get to sleep with all that noise?
56:34Luckily, our hero had brought along something noisy. His bugle.
56:44Everyone woke up. The trash derogedly turned to them and said,
56:49Sesame Street has been brought to you today by the letter H.
56:54And by the number 13.
56:57And then our hero boldly, helplessly.
57:06No, no, no more, Slimy. That was a lot of excitement for a little worm.
57:11You get some rest, and we'll read some more tomorrow.
57:19You're still here? Hey, why don't you go read a book or something?
57:23Hmm.
57:24Oh, man.
57:36Anyway, we'll be right back.
