00:07Hello again, this is Sesame Street, show number 21.
00:57Sesame Street
00:59We'll be there, sweepin' the clouds away. On my way to where the air is free, can you tell me
01:12how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?
01:17Sesame Street
01:19Call and play, everything's A-OK. Friendly neighbors there, that's where we meet.
01:30Sesame Street
01:31Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street? How to get to Sesame Street? How
01:40to get to Sesame Street?
01:43Sesame Street
01:45Is that a person to stand up in?
01:50Oh, yeah. Light up.
01:51Hi. Hi. We're sitting here with the balloons. The balloon man came down the street. So I picked up one
01:57for Oscar and one for Ford. I don't know whether I'll give Oscar one yet. What do you think?
02:03Oh, here he comes. Here he comes. Here he comes. Hello, bird. How are you?
02:10Oh, fine. Hello, Ford. Say hello, bird. Hello. Good heavens. What's the matter?
02:15What you've got in your hand there? What's the matter with it? I've got one, too. Yeah? It's amazing. I
02:22was going through the park and I found it up in a tree. And I think it's some kind of
02:26rare fruit.
02:27Um, wait a minute, Big Bird. Conference. Should we tell him now? Okay. All right. That's not a piece of
02:33fruit, Big Bird. What? No, no, no. It's a balloon. A balloon? Yeah, it's a balloon. You see, what probably
02:38happened, you were walking along where somebody lost his balloon up in a tree. Yeah. You see what I mean?
02:44So it's not a piece of fruit, it's a balloon. It's a balloon? Well, I've heard of these things, but
02:48I never had one before. I have a balloon. It's a nice balloon. And now you know what a balloon
02:54is, right? Yeah, I think I probably know as much about balloons as, um, anybody. Well, never can tell. You
03:02know what these are? Hmm? You know what these are? Oh, no, Gordon. I've never seen anything like that. They're
03:07balloons, Big Bird. Oh, come on, Gordon. You're kidding me. No, no, no. Come on. Those are just little squiggly
03:14things.
03:14That's short. That's short. Come on. Hmm? Grab one. Watch, Big Bird. Yep, watch him. Watch it.
03:23Hey. See? Look at that. Oh, yeah. That's a balloon. That looks like Bert's nose. No, it's not Bert's nose.
03:30It's a balloon. It really is. Oh, my goodness.
03:32You see, what happened first was there was no air in it, right? Right. So it was flat. Now, when
03:37you blow air in it, it comes up like that, swells up, brown, becomes a balloon.
03:41Comes a balloon. It's a balloon. Huh. So that's a balloon. Yeah. You understand that? Hmm. Now, I'll show you
03:47one more thing. Oh, well, there's something else.
03:50Let's throw him this bit for it. Yeah. Watch.
03:55Oh. Air comes out. Oh. Back down the size it was. The poor little thing. Oh, yeah. Hmm. Well, I
04:03see you have, um, two nice balloons there, though, the big ones.
04:06Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm. Those are nice balloons. Terrific. Good balloons. I must admit, I have a very special balloon.
04:12It's a super-duper balloon.
04:14Oh, really? Sure. Yeah. Well, I can tell you the difference. Now, what happens when you drop one of your
04:20balloons?
04:21What happens when you drop it? Mm-hmm. When you drop a nice balloon. Try it. Try it. What happens?
04:26See? It just falls, right? Right.
04:29Well, watch mine when I let mine go. I'm going to drop it. It goes up. It drops up. It
04:36drops up.
04:37Well, see? You have two nice balloons, and I have a special super-duper balloon. See ya.
04:47Oh, I'm sorry. Uh, this is the capital letter A. Next to it is the small letter A. Many words
04:55begin with this letter. Alligator, for instance.
04:57An alligator is an American reptile, similar to the crocodile, but having a shorter and flatter head.
05:06They have also been known to be extremely dangerous.
05:10Boy, am I ever an expert on balloons. Yes, sir, I'm a real balloon expert.
05:16I don't think there's anybody who knows more than I do about balloons.
05:21Hey, did I hear you say you was a balloon expert?
05:24Um, well, uh, yes, yes. I am a balloon expert.
05:29Yeah, well, I'm sort of a balloon expert myself. Maybe we could trade a few pointers.
05:34Well, very well. Um, uh, do you know that some balloons, like these little squiggly ones, when you blow into
05:40them, they turn into nice, big, fat balloons?
05:43Yeah, I knew that.
05:44Hmm.
05:45What else?
05:46Well, uh, uh, some balloons, if you drop them, go down, and other balloons go up.
05:54Well, sure. If you've got a nice balloon, you drop it, it goes down. If you've got a super-duper
05:58balloon, and you let go of it, it goes up.
06:00Hmm. Gee, you do know a lot about balloons.
06:02You're right. Now, let's see how much you know about balloons. Do you know what happens when a monster bites
06:07a balloon?
06:09What happens when a monster bites a balloon?
06:12Yeah.
06:13Gee, that's a toughie.
06:15Uh, no. What does happen when a monster bites a balloon?
06:19This.
06:21Oh, but...
06:22Now, if you didn't say that, I'll do it again.
06:24No, but I saw it, I mean...
06:24This is what happens when a monster bites a nice balloon.
06:26Oh, but...
06:27See that? Now you know what happens when a monster bites a super-duper balloon.
06:30Oh, no.
06:31Give me that super-duper balloon. I'll show you.
06:32Well...
06:33This is what happens when a monster bites a super-duper balloon.
06:35Same thing.
06:36Oh, but...
06:38But you broke my nice balloons.
06:41Right.
06:42They were nice balloons, but now they're not even my balloons at all anymore. They're just gone. That wasn't a
06:47very nice thing to do.
06:48Hang on, kid. I'll show you a real balloon.
06:51Hmm?
06:51Yeah.
06:52Hmm?
06:53Here you go.
06:54This is a real super-duper monster-sized balloon.
06:56Oh, wow.
06:57It's for you. Take it.
06:59Gee. Thanks.
07:01Think nothing of it.
07:03Gosh.
07:04A real super-duper monster-sized balloon.
07:08Boy, I'm not gonna let any monster bite this one.
07:11I sure didn't like the pop they made when he bit them.
07:14I like some noises, but I sure didn't like that pop.
07:20Ah!
07:27This is Chris.
07:29He has a pair of magic glasses.
07:33When Chris hears a noise, he puts his magic glasses on.
07:47Oh, my God.
08:04.
08:06.
08:06.
08:06.
08:06.
08:07Ah, ah, ah, ah!
08:37Achoo!
08:39Achoo!
08:42Achoo!
09:20See if you can make these noises.
09:26Now your turn.
09:32Achoo!
09:36Beep, beep!
09:42Ring!
09:57You know, I'm gonna make this sandwich for Gordon's lunch.
10:01While you're making lunch, you can really look around and see lots of different shapes.
10:07For instance, look at this bread.
10:08What shape is that?
10:10Square.
10:11That's a square.
10:12Right.
10:13Oh, let's put some bologna on this sandwich here.
10:16What shape is a bologna, Tammy?
10:19Circle.
10:19Oh, it's a circle.
10:21And let's put a cheese slice on here to round it out.
10:24What shape is a cheese?
10:26Square.
10:27Another square.
10:28And the bread again.
10:30Square.
10:31Square.
10:32So when we put it on the whole sandwich, we have a square.
10:38Now see, the sandwich, when you put it together, is a square.
10:43But look, when you cut it diagonally, what do you have?
10:48Can you see that?
10:49Triangle.
10:49Two triangles.
10:50Isn't that great?
10:51You can really learn a lot about shapes just by making lunch.
10:55And you can learn a lot about the triangle and the square by watching this.
11:09Once there was a very jazzy triangle who just loved to dance.
11:37As you can see, a triangle has three sides.
11:40One, two, three.
11:50One day the triangle met a very square square who also loved to dance in his own way.
12:08One, two, three, four.
12:11Oh, boy, are you square.
12:13You don't move.
12:15You're always the same.
12:16All four sides the same length.
12:19One, two, three, four.
12:22All four corners square as a box.
12:25I have three sides.
12:27And I can make them as long or as short as I want.
12:30I can be tall and thin.
12:32Or short and fat, depending on how I feel.
12:36I sure am glad I'm a triangle.
12:39Well, it's true I can't dance as well as you can.
12:43And my sides and corners are always the same.
12:46But I don't have to decide which side to make long and which short.
12:50And I never have to think about what shape I want to be.
12:53I like being a square.
12:55Yeah, but wouldn't you like to be able to move around as you please, like me?
12:58And change your shape any time you feel like it?
13:01Like this?
13:08When you're a square, you're a square and that's that.
13:11Nothing personal.
13:13You like being a triangle.
13:14I like being a square.
13:16Everyone can't be the same.
13:18Well, so long.
13:19Nice talking to you.
13:34The triangle watched him go.
13:36Not a bad guy.
13:37He thought.
13:38For a square.
13:39And he danced all the way home.

24:39You know, I asked a young friend of mine
24:41The other day
24:42If she knew where corn comes from
24:43And she told me it comes from the market
24:45In little frozen packages
24:47Well, corn comes from someplace else
24:49Even before the market
24:50And so does all the other food there
24:53Watch
25:00I'm Jennifer
25:01I live in the city
25:03One day I went to visit my mommy's friend
25:06Mrs. Wilson
25:08Who lives in the country
25:10Mrs. Wilson has a big garden
25:12In back of her house
25:14And you know what?
25:15She grows lots of things to eat
25:18Right in her garden
25:20The first thing Mrs. Wilson showed me
25:23Was some big yellow squash
25:26That was growing out of the ground
25:30Right behind us
25:31There are a lot of tall plants
25:34And Mrs. Wilson reached in
25:36And pulled off a piece of one of the plants
25:42She opened up the green leaves
25:44And there inside it
25:46Was a corn on the cob
25:50Mrs. Wilson said
25:52The leaves around it
25:53Was called the husk
26:00Later on I picked some other things
26:03Like beef
26:06They grow right in the ground
26:08And you just pull them out
26:10By the leaves
26:22Carrots are the same
26:24All that shows above the ground
26:27Are the leaves
26:28The carrots are in the earth
26:32This is the way tomatoes grow
26:35It's called a vine
26:37The tomato starts out green
26:41And turns red
26:42When it's ready to eat
26:44And then you just pick it right off
27:04Is the dirt coming off?
27:07Oh that's good Jenny
27:09Wash them good
27:10We'll have them for lunch
27:11Okay
27:13After I picked all the vegetables
27:15From the garden
27:17Mrs. Wilson cooked them in hot water
27:20And I ate them for lunch
27:24Everything that we're having for lunch
27:26Is something that we picked this morning
27:28Like the tomato
27:30The tomato
27:34The carrot
27:35Carrot
27:36Right
27:39Corn
27:39That's right
27:40Do you like corn?
27:42Uh huh
27:44Did you enjoy it?
27:45Did you have a good time?
27:47Uh huh
27:48Next time I go to the store with Mommy
27:51I'm going to tell her
27:53That lots of the things we eat
27:55Grow right in the ground
27:57Just like in Mrs. Wilson's garden
28:04Okay Greg
28:05Out of all those foods you saw
28:06Which ones you like the best?
28:08I like it
28:10The tomatoes
28:11Tomatoes
28:12Big tomato fan
28:13What about you Tammy?
28:14Carrots
28:15Carrots
28:15Okay
28:16Look I'm going to tell you two a story
28:18It's all about two little girls
28:20One's name is Toby
28:21The other's name is Sandy
28:23Okay
28:24And they live in a city
28:26Big city
28:27They live in an apartment building
28:29But neither one of them has met the other
28:31Okay
28:32One lives in apartment 5A
28:34And the other in 7B
28:36So that's why the story is called 5A and 7B
28:39Where's the 7B?
28:41Where's 7B?
28:42Yeah
28:43Well it's above 5A
28:44In a big city
28:45With many buildings
28:48Of different shapes and sizes
28:50There was one tall building
28:52Where two little girls lived
28:56Toby lived on the 5th floor
28:58In apartment 5A
29:00And Sandy lived on the 7th floor
29:02In apartment 7B
29:04But they never made friends
29:06Because
29:07Well Sandy got up early
29:09Every morning
29:10With her sister Susie
29:13While Toby
29:14Was still snuggled
29:16In her bed
29:19And when Sandy and her mother
29:21Walked Susie to school
29:24Toby was just having breakfast
29:25No matter where they went
29:28Or what they did
29:29They never seemed to meet
29:32If Toby was going down to the street
29:34In one elevator
29:35Sandy would be coming up
29:37In the other
29:39If Sandy and her mother
29:41Were going shopping
29:43Well Toby
29:43Would be just putting on her coat
29:47And by the time
29:49Toby and her mother
29:50Went to the store
29:53Sandy and her mother
29:54Were already going home
29:59Then sometimes
30:00When Sandy's sister
30:01Brought her friends
30:02Over after school
30:04Sandy would watch them
30:05From a corner
30:06When I'm older
30:07I'll go to school
30:08And have friends too
30:10She thought
30:12And sometimes
30:13When Toby's mother
30:14Was very busy
30:15Toby wished she had
30:16A friend to play with
30:17And not just a lot of
30:19Dolls
30:22One day Sandy's sister
30:23Caught a cold
30:24And stayed home from school
30:26Sandy and her mother
30:27Were very busy that morning
30:29When they finally got
30:31Downstairs
30:32They had to buy
30:33Cough medicine
30:34Right there in the drugstore
30:35See
30:37And by the time
30:38They got to the supermarket
30:40It was much
30:41Later than usual
30:43You know what's going
30:44To happen already
30:45Huh Greg
30:45Yeah
30:46On the way home
30:47Sandy began to giggle
30:49We've been following
30:50That girl all day
30:51She told her mother
30:53And at the same time
30:54Toby whispered to her mother
30:55I see that girl
30:57Everywhere we go
30:59And then they walked
31:00In the same door
31:01Hey this is my house
31:03Says Sandy
31:04This is my house too
31:05Said Toby
31:06And they burst out laughing
31:09Then they told each other
31:10Their names
31:12Maybe Sandy would like
31:13To come and have
31:13Some cocoa with us
31:14Said Toby's mother
31:16Both Sandy and Toby
31:18Said yes
31:18And Sandy's mother
31:20Agreed
31:22They played with
31:23Toby's dolls
31:23And drew with crayons
31:25And looked at
31:26Picture books together
31:28But before they knew it
31:30It was time
31:31For Sandy to go home
31:33We'd love to have
31:34Toby come to lunch
31:35At our house tomorrow
31:36Said Sandy's mother
31:37And Toby's mother said
31:38That's fine
31:41That night
31:42Before they went to sleep
31:44Sandy and Toby
31:45Both wished on
31:46The very same star
31:47That they would be
31:48Friends forever
31:51Now what'd you think
31:52About that?
31:54Hmm?
31:55You want to comment?
31:56Huh?
31:57One of them was good
31:59One of them was bad
32:00One was good
32:01And one was bad?
32:02Yeah
32:02One thing going to
32:05Same place
32:05One thing coming out
32:07One thing coming out
32:08To have a bed
32:08And one thing
32:09Came out to win bed
32:10But great
32:10They just couldn't
32:11Get it together
32:12That's all
32:12But at the end
32:13They did
32:14Right?
32:15They got straightened out
32:16They were trying to make up friends
32:17They were trying to make friends
32:19And they did make friends
32:20Right?
32:21Okay
32:21Cut that together
32:22You want to hear some music?
32:23Um, yeah
32:24You do
32:24You want to hear some music, Tammy?
32:26Okay
32:26Here's something
32:27We're really going to like
32:28Some music
32:29Let's listen to it
32:32Boys and girls
32:33Boys and girls
32:37Have you met
32:3926 letters for the alphabet
32:41You got to learn them before
32:43You can read, write a spell
32:45You might become a teacher
32:46We can never, never tell
32:48Learn, search your words
32:49Yes, sir
32:50I hear so much bother
32:52They go like this
32:53Come on now

33:19S, C, U, P, W, X, Y, Z
33:47Boys and girls

34:13U, P, W, X, Y, Z
34:18Those are the ABCs
34:21Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
34:25yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
34:28yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
34:28yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
34:28yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
34:33yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
38:47Okay, Ernie, this is the way it works.
38:49You have four objects over here, right?
38:52One, two, three, four.
38:53Three balls and a balloon, right?
38:55Right.
38:56You've got four boxes over there.
38:57Look over there, right.
38:58Yeah.
38:59Four boxes, four boxes, one, two, three, four, three big boxes, one little box, right?
39:05Now, here's the way we play the game.
39:07You take these objects, these four objects, and you make them fit into those four boxes, okay?
39:15You're on your own.
39:16All right, well, let's see.
39:19Okay, I'll start over here, maybe.
39:21Okay.
39:21Now, this box here is about that big.
39:23Right.
39:23And I need a ball about...
39:26That ball's about that big.
39:27It's about that big.
39:28See if it fits.
39:54That ball here looks about like it would...
39:57Try it.
39:57Let's see.
40:00That is great!
40:02Ernie, that's...
40:03Yeah, yeah, okay.
40:04Let's see.
40:04Now, the last box is about that big.
40:06Try this one.
40:07This is your last one.
40:08The balloon.
40:09The balloon is too big, Gordon.
40:11Uh, well, you tried it.
40:12That balloon here, this balloon is never going to fit into that box.
40:15Ernie, you're not thinking.
40:16You're not thinking, Ernie.
40:17If I push her, it all squeezes out all over the edges there.
40:20Ernie, Ernie, you've got to think of a way to get that balloon into that box.
40:24It's not going to do it.
40:25Not going to do it?
40:25I give up, Gordon.
40:26All right, I'll show you.
40:29Very simple, Ernie.
40:30What you do is you take the air out of the balloon.
40:35You see?
40:36Yeah.
40:37Okay.
40:37Now the balloon's small because there's no air in it.
40:40Put the balloon in the box.
40:42Now it fits.
40:43Hey, that's great.
40:44That's great.
40:44Hey, listen, Gordon, would you do me a favor?
40:46Sure.
40:47Would you blow that balloon back up again?
40:49Why?
40:49And I'll put those balls back out here again.
40:50And then somebody else will come along, and I'll ask them to do it.
40:53And then when they can't figure it out, then I'll tell them how.
40:55Oh, now that you know the trick, you're going to pull it on someone else.
40:58Yeah, yeah.
40:58Okay, I'll do it for you.
40:59Okay.
41:00Here we go.
41:00Put the balls back.
41:01I'll blow the balloon out.
41:02Okay, I'll put the balls back.
41:15You got the balls there, Ernie?
41:19The balls are ready.
41:20Okay.
41:20Here's your balloon.
41:21Who's ready?
41:22You're all set.
41:22I'll see you later.
41:23Good.
41:24Thank you, Gordon.
41:24You're welcome.
41:26Let's see.
41:26I got three balls, one balloon, and four boxes.
41:28And then, oh, hey, listen, you.
41:31Hey, come here.
41:32Come here.
41:32Look at here.
41:33Look at here.
41:33I got three balls.
41:34I got one balloon.
41:35I got four boxes.
41:36Now, see if you can put the balls into the boxes and the balloon into the box, and put all
41:40the things into the boxes.
41:41Can you do that?
41:42All right.
41:43I'll see you.
41:46One.
41:47That's one?
41:48Right?
41:50Two.
41:52He does it pretty fast.
41:54Three.
41:54Hmm?
41:56Yeah, but now, now what are you going to do?
41:58You've got a great big balloon.
42:00You've got a little bitty box.
42:01How are you going to get that great big balloon into that little bitty box, huh?
42:04You give up?
42:15Bye-bye.
42:19I never did like him anyhow.
42:27Hello there.
42:29Do you know what this is?
42:31It's the letter H.
42:34Can you think of something that begins with an H?
42:37Well, here's something now.
42:40It's a horseshoe.
42:46Oh, watch it.
42:49Oh, dear.
42:51Oh.
42:52Oh, my.
42:55Oh, dear.
43:00Hey, Jim.
43:01I'm home.
43:02Okay, buddy.
43:03Come on in.
43:04But don't slam...
43:06the door.
43:09Hiya, Jim.
43:11Look what you've done now.
43:12You knocked my girlfriend's picture off the wall.
43:16I just got here.
43:17When you slammed the door, my girlfriend's picture fell down.
43:21Oh, I'm sorry, Jim.
43:22Never mind that.
43:23You just put that picture back where it came from.
43:25Right.
43:26Oh.
43:33Hey, Jim.
43:35I forgot where it was.
43:36You can't do anything right.
43:39Now I'll have to figure this problem out all by myself.
43:42Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, I think I got it.
43:48There.
43:48Boy, she really brightens up the old room there, Jim.
43:52There's your girlfriend.
43:54Buddy, what's that in your hand?
43:56This is your girlfriend here.
43:58Mm.
44:01That wasn't such a good idea, was it?
44:03Of course it wasn't.
44:06Now I've got an idea.
44:07Yeah.
44:08Hey, come on, Jim.
44:09If I take this picture down, and I'll take this picture all the way over here, and I'll
44:16put that picture here.
44:17Yeah.
44:18But then I'll have to take this picture down and bring that picture all the way over to
44:23that picture.
44:25Or maybe I'll take all my girlfriend's pictures down, and I'll put them all on that wall.
44:29Hey, Jim.
44:30Maybe I can...
44:31Hey, Jim.
44:32What is it?
44:34I got an idea.
44:37Let's break for lunch.
44:41For once in your life, you've had a good idea.
44:44Ha, ha.
44:44That's a wonderful idea.
44:45Thanks, Jim.
44:46We'll go get a sandwich, then we can come back to this problem with a brand new energy.
44:52Yeah.
44:52Let's go into the kitchen.
44:54Jim, let's go into the kitchen.
44:56Right into the kitchen.
44:56Here we go.
44:57Hold it, buddy.
44:58What is it, Jim?
44:59Don't take my girlfriend's picture into the kitchen.
45:02You might spill something on her.
45:05Oh, yeah.
45:07Well, Jim, what do you want me to do with the picture here?
45:09I don't care.
45:10Just put it anywhere until after we've had our lunch.
45:13All right.
45:14Good.
45:14Just put it anywhere until after we've had our lunch.
45:16That's right.
45:17All right.
45:24Hey, Jim.
45:25Well, we got a tough problem today.
45:27Don't worry about our problem.
45:28I have all afternoon to figure this one out.
45:31You can do it, Jim.
45:32Of course I can.
45:38Water.
45:43That's good stuff.
45:44It's so useful, too.
45:45So many things you can do with it.
45:47You can drink it.
45:48Use it to do your dishes.
45:50Do your laundry.
45:51Clean the house.
45:52And you know, it's a good thing.
45:53Water is plentiful.
45:54There's lots of water around.
45:56You can find water in streams and lakes and rivers and oceans all over the world.
46:20There's lots of water in some people.
46:32There's lots of water in there.
46:32Let's go.
47:05Let's go.
47:33Let's go.
48:02Let's go.
48:33Let's go.
49:19Let's go.
49:23And you got all wet in the rain, right?
49:25Got all wet.
49:26You know, there are a lot of things that we couldn't have without rain.
49:29I'll tell you about some of them right now, okay?
49:31That's the one I like to have.
49:32If you didn't have rain, if you didn't have rain, then you couldn't have flowers.
49:45You couldn't wash your hands and face, you wouldn't have a sink.
49:52All day you'd face the barren waste, just looking for a nice cool drink.
49:59So you gotta have rain every now and then to make the whole world shine.
50:12See how many you can remember this time, okay?
50:16If you didn't have rain, if you didn't have rain, then you wouldn't have flowers.
50:20If you didn't have flowers, then you didn't have rain.
50:24Nowhere to swim, there'd be no babbling brook.
50:26There'd be no fish to catch on the end of a hook.
50:29You couldn't wash your hands and face, you wouldn't even have a sink.
50:36All day you'd face the barren waste, just looking for a nice cool drink.
50:44So you gotta have rain every now and then to make the whole world shine.
50:50Then every day will turn up fine.
50:55Now when I point to you, tell me some more things that you wouldn't have without rain.
50:58Ready?
51:00If you didn't have rain, then you wouldn't have showers.
51:04If you didn't have rain, then you wouldn't have ice cream.
51:08If you didn't have rain, then you wouldn't have plants.
51:11If you didn't have rain, well, you couldn't have...
51:14You wouldn't wash your hands and face, you wouldn't even have a sink.
51:21All day you'd face the barren waste, just looking for a nice cool drink.
51:28So you gotta have rain every now and then to make the whole world shine.
51:34If you didn't have rain, then every day will turn up fine.
51:41Hey, that's some singer there, boy.
51:44That's great.
51:45What else wouldn't you have without rain?
51:47Well, ice cream?
51:49Ice cream.
51:50Ice cream.
51:50And lollipops and all kinds of things, huh?
51:53A lot.
51:53Yeah.
51:54So we really have to have rain, don't we?
51:56Yes.
51:57You know, the rain really makes a kind of a sound all its own, doesn't it?
52:00Let's get in the house now.
52:01Mmm.
52:02Sometimes it's nice just to listen to the sounds all around us.
52:06Listen.
52:12What things make sounds?
52:15Many things make sounds.
52:17What are those sounds?
52:18Birds singing.
52:30That's a big bird.
52:33That's a rooster.
52:34He crows.
52:38Those are sheep.
52:44Those too?
52:46They're baby sheep.
52:47Lamb.
52:49Maybe they're Louis.
52:51No they're not.
52:56That's a cow.
52:58Cows moo.
53:03Ducks clasp.
53:08That's a cow.
53:09Geese honk.
53:17Ten's clock.
53:24I know those sounds.
53:27Those are breakfast sounds.
53:39Why doesn't the dog bark?
53:42You can't bark with your mouth full.
53:52Walking makes a sound.
54:02And cars make sounds.
54:06That's not a car, that's a truck.
54:25That's a car.
54:28That's a car.
54:29That's a car.
54:34That's a car.
54:37That's a car.
54:41That's a car.
54:48That's a car.
54:48Those are machines that make roads.
54:57That's a car.
55:01That's a car.
55:14That's a car.
55:17Nothing's silly.
55:19Little machines can make big sounds too.
55:22Like a chainsaw.
55:40Airplanes make kind of whistle sound.
55:53Airplanes rattle, a city has many sounds, a horse, a policeman and his whistle, and lots
56:13of traffic, a wristwatch, an elevator, footsteps inside sound different, an office has lots
56:39of sound, adding machines, staplers, typewriters, I hear those sounds a lot.
57:17Why is it so quiet?
57:20I don't know.
57:24An explosion.
57:29Thunder.
57:30Thunder.
57:31Thunder.
57:34Thunder.
57:42Thunder.
57:43Thunder.
57:46Thunder.
57:47Thunder.
57:48Thunder.
57:52Thunder.
57:54Thunder.
57:56Thunder.
57:58Thunder.
57:59Thunder.
57:59Thunder.
58:07Thunder.
58:12There's so many sounds.
58:15Is silence a sound?
58:17I don't know.
58:19Neither do I.
58:22Hey, I've got a great idea.
58:23Let's go into Mr. Hooper's and get some chocolate sodas.
58:26Oh, yeah, that's a big idea.
58:27Let's go.
