00:00Yes! I've got more money that I can add to my savings jar!
00:03I can't wait until I've saved enough to afford a new puppy!
00:06Puppy, puppy, puppy! Puppies are the best!
00:09I should start thinking of a name!
00:11Oh my! It's too dusty in this room!
00:16Huh? Huh?
00:17Ha-choo!
00:19My first!
00:21Oh! Come back!
00:24Oh no! This is getting even worse!
00:27Please stop falling!
00:29Oh no! There it goes! Over the edge!
00:33Oh my! Oh no! It cracked right open!
00:36Grandma! What happened to my puppy savings jar?
00:39Don't worry! Granny can fix this!
00:41I just need some cardboard!
00:43There! But I need a couple more of these to make some layers!
00:46And then I'll add some paint because we want it to be pretty too!
00:49Now for this circular piece, I'm gonna need some hot glue!
00:53And the doggy can sit right on top of it!
00:55Good boy!
00:56Next up, I'll add a jar right here with a slit in the lid!
00:59Now feed the doggy!
01:01Oh my gosh! Look at the coin! It's going right down to the jar!
01:06Yes! It made it inside with the rest of the coins!
01:10I'll unpack all my new things!
01:12Wow! It all looks great!
01:15What else?
01:17Oh, I know!
01:19Uh, doesn't a skull usually have more legs in this?
01:22That's weird!
01:24Ah-ha! That's better!
01:26Let's try it out!
01:28Woah!
01:30This'll definitely work! I know it!
01:33Here goes!
01:35Nope!
01:37Oh, this tub might be handy!
01:40Let's get to work!
01:42I'll roll the tub in some padded fabric!
01:46Then I'll stand it upright!
01:48Now I need to attach the fabric to the tub!
01:51This should hold it in place!
01:52And I'll do the same with the lid!
01:54What a transformation!
01:56It looks better than my original stool!
01:59I love this!
02:00I hope it's comfortable!
02:02There's only one way to find out!
02:05Wow! It's amazing!
02:11Ugh, the sun's so bright!
02:13I can't see my phone screen at all!
02:16Ahem. It looks like you're having some troubles, friend.
02:20Who's there? I can't see anything!
02:22What's going on?
02:23Don't worry! I have a solution just for you!
02:27Ta-da! I have a box head just for you!
02:30There you go!
02:31Now you can enjoy the shade inside the box!
02:34There's even a spot for your phone so you won't have to hold it!
02:37This video is so funny!
02:39I love it! It's my new fave!
02:41I can't believe they just did that to the teacher!
02:44A job well done!
02:45I knew it would work because cardboard can do anything!
02:49I can't believe I'm late!
02:51I need my rings!
02:53Where are they?
02:55They're all tangled together!
02:57This is the ring I want!
02:59Ugh! Come on!
03:01Uh-oh! Oops!
03:04Madison! Where are you?
03:07Just look at this! It's a mess!
03:10Hey! Replace the toilet paper!
03:13Wait! Can I have that?
03:15The toilet paper tube? What?
03:19You'll see!
03:20I'll start with the box!
03:22I'll apply a line of glue across the box!
03:27Then I'll stick the toilet paper tube to it!
03:29I'll cover them with this material!
03:31Then I'll use a popsicle stick to push the material between the tubes!
03:35It's a great jewelry box!
03:37And it's ideal for keeping my rings and necklaces separate!
03:40It's exactly what I needed!
03:49Wow! Let me see!
03:51This is the ring I want!
03:53It's so nice!
03:55Ahem!
03:57Oh yeah! Here you go!
03:59Have a good time!
04:01Thanks!
04:02Wait, what?
04:03Gotta go!
04:05This is so pretty!
04:07Oh! I need to go!
04:11I love you, Mrs. Unicorn!
04:14Hi darling! Time for bed!
04:17Let's go!
04:18But mom! The unicorns!
04:21No excuses! It's late!
04:24Fine!
04:25I'll just take off the unicorn horn!
04:27No!
04:28Okay, night night!
04:31Night, mommy!
04:34Oh! It's dark!
04:36That's where the monsters live!
04:40Are you okay?
04:41What's wrong?
04:42It was dark and I think I saw a monster!
04:46It's okay! Mommy's here!
04:48Have some milk! It'll make you sleepy!
04:50Thanks, mommy!
04:53So precious!
04:57No! Don't do it!
05:01Save me, Mr. Unicorn!
05:06How did this get here?
05:09Wait! This gives me a great idea!
05:12Place a plastic folder over a drying!
05:15We're using a unicorn because they're cute!
05:18Start to draw the unicorn on the plastic!
05:20It should be easy to trace!
05:22No need to be a professional artist for this one!
05:25Once you're done, get rid of the paper!
05:27Draw a dotted line on a cardboard box and cut it out!
05:31Stick the plastic folder to the box with tape!
05:36Make sure it's secure!
05:41Now take a torch and place it inside the box!
05:46Close the box over!
05:47Now to decorate it!
05:49Add some glow-in-the-dark paint to a tin of white paint!
05:53Anyone for eggs?
05:55Give it a good stir to mix the paint!
05:58Now to turn out the lights!
06:02Let's get artistic!
06:04This'll make a great painting and nightlight!
06:07Take your time!
06:08We want this to be perfect!
06:10The projection makes it so much easier!
06:15Looking good!
06:20Maybe I should take a painting!
06:27I think that's it!
06:33I don't need this anymore!
06:35What do you think?
06:39Wow, mommy!
06:40I love it!
06:41I'd better get to sleep!
06:42I'm tired!
06:44It's such a pretty unicorn…
06:48La la la!
06:50I really enjoy cleaning!
06:51Oh, a call!
06:53Wow, that's so kind of her!
06:55Granny's coming to visit, and she has a gift for you!
06:58Isn't that exciting?
07:03I'm here!
07:05I'm here!
07:05Who's that glamorous granny?
07:07Hi!
07:08Come on in!
07:09There's my gorgeous boy!
07:11Look what granny has!
07:12You're growing into such a big boy!
07:15So good to see you!
07:16Now, will we open this gift?
07:19What do you think?
07:23Oh!
07:24Oh no, this isn't right!
07:25I'm so sorry!
07:27This is completely wrong!
07:29It's okay, mom!
07:30He can grow into them!
07:33See?
07:33Almost a perfect fit!
07:35They're great!
07:35Look!
07:39Why don't you try walking in them?
07:42Okay, they might be slightly too big for him.
07:44I like them!
07:49Wait a minute!
07:50I know how to fix this!
07:53Stand on that piece of paper, sweetie!
07:54I'll draw around your foot!
07:57That's it!
07:58Good boy!
08:06Now to cut out the footprint!
08:08Hey mom!
08:08Take this!
08:11What do I do with this?
08:15Oh, I see.
08:16I want shoes in this size!
08:18It's for my grandson!
08:22Just a moment!
08:23I think these might fit!
08:28Let's try this!
08:29The ideal size!
08:31I'll take them!
08:34Oh, thank you!
08:35Have a great day!
08:38Okay, dear.
08:39Granny has the right shoes this time.
08:41Shall we try them on?
08:44Left foot first.
08:45We'll just tighten the strap.
08:48They look much better!
08:50I'm so happy!
08:55Ooh!
08:56It's so hard getting into the door like this!
08:59Phew!
09:00I made it!
09:02Oh my gosh!
09:03Honey!
09:03What happened to you?
09:05Oh well, I was playing soccer!
09:07Can't believe how fast I was running after that ball!
09:09Okay, and then what happened?
09:12Well, then I was fighting over the ball with one of their forwards!
09:14She was a tough one!
09:16But I knew what I was doing!
09:17I got the ball away from her!
09:18Then I was driving it down the field!
09:20And then…
09:21Well…
09:22I tripped.
09:23On my own ankle!
09:24And down I went.
09:25And we lost the game because of that!
09:27All because I fell!
09:28Ugh!
09:29I'm so angry!
09:30Oh…
09:31I feel so bad for her!
09:32She loves playing soccer!
09:35Yep, I have a solution!
09:37Okay, let me take this pizza box and open it up like this.
09:40Ooh, don't mind if I do!
09:42Okay, now that the pizza's fully eaten, I can start to tape up these corners!
09:46Great!
09:47Let's add some green paper to the bottom!
09:49Now for some decorations!
09:50I really want this to look like a soccer field!
09:53Next up…
09:54Draws!
09:55I'll bend them, slide them together, and then put them in place with some glue!
09:59Let's add some stadium decorations to make it look fun!
10:02Okay, this straw's for you and this one for me!
10:04Now blow!
10:06Oh, I'm gonna getcha!
10:07You'll have to blow harder than me to beat me!
10:10Ooh, you almost had me!
10:11But I've got great defense!
10:14No way am I gonna let you win this!
10:17Yes!
10:18Goal!
10:19I win!
10:21Hm.
10:21All right, time for a rematch then!
10:24Let's go!
10:28This product is the best!
10:31Okay, that was unexpected!
10:34This isn't the greatest shelf!
10:37This is going in the trash!
10:39You belong right here!
10:42Wait a minute…
10:44Hm.
10:45That's interesting.
10:47I think I can use this!
10:49I'll place the mannequin torso on the table.
10:52Then I'll separate it.
10:53Then I'll place these shelves into it.
10:55I'll space them out evenly.
10:57Now I'll put the top back on.
11:00It's time to decorate!
11:02Wow!
11:03That looks amazing!
11:04I'll put it right here!
11:05I love the color!
11:07And there's lots of space for all my things!
11:10And I know that they are safe!
11:12This is just what I need!
11:17Ah, perfect!
11:20Hm.
11:21No one's looking, so now's my chance to get a snack!
11:24Ugh.
11:24Why is this bag so difficult to open?
11:27Come on!
11:28I need snacks!
11:29Ah!
11:29Oh no!
11:30The bag's split in half!
11:32There go all my hopes and dreams for a tasty snack!
11:35Hey look!
11:36Bring candy!
11:37Let's get it!
11:37Stop!
11:38That's my candy!
11:39Get out of here!
11:40Oh!
11:41There's one left for me!
11:42Oh, come on!
11:43Are you kidding me?
11:44This is so frustrating!
11:46Oh gosh!
11:47Everyone stole all their candy!
11:49Maybe I can help her!
11:50Uh, what the heck are you doing?
11:52Psst!
11:53Hey!
11:53I've got a solution to your candy problem!
11:55Take a look at this!
11:56It's my little piggy!
11:58Go on!
11:59Push his nose!
12:00See?
12:00It's a candy dispenser!
12:02I'll show you how I made him!
12:03I started with some pieces of cardboard like this!
12:05Then I attached three more!
12:07Then I added this base piece!
12:08This next part requires more cardboard, of course!
12:11But also some small dowels!
12:13We need this shape, another dowel, and two small rubber bands!
12:16This is now ready to go inside the box we're building!
12:19It should fit easily!
12:20I'm gonna slide it down and hook the rubber band on these dowels here!
12:23I'm using some tweezers to help make it a little easier!
12:26Don't forget to set the rubber band on the other side too!
12:29Then I push it back and the candy slides right out!
12:32Great!
12:33Now let's cover it up and add some little ramps pointing down!
12:35We'll wanna cover the front too so it's prettier!
12:38We're on the home stretch!
12:40I added this plastic case to hold the candy!
12:42And then a cute little lid so the candy doesn't spill everywhere!
12:45Look!
12:46It even pops open so you can put in more candy when needed!
12:49Ooh!
12:50Look at how delicious it is!
12:52Close the lid and then it's time to add some decorations!
12:56Wow!
12:57First off, this candy's great!
12:59But secondly, that pig is so cute!
13:02Alright, I better scooch back over to my desk now!
13:06This is so boring!
13:09There's so much to do!
13:10Maybe I can have a rest!
13:12Just a little fun to break up the day!
13:14I'll put the iPad right here!
13:16Ugh!
13:17I need something to prop it up!
13:21That's not gonna work!
13:23Ah, come on!
13:25This is getting annoying!
13:27I think I know how to fix this!
13:30No peeking!
13:31Just wait there!
13:32That's more like it!
13:34It makes a great stand!
13:36This is much better than classwork!
13:41I'll open the folder up and put some glue in the corners!
13:44I want it to be roughly the same shape as an iPad.
13:47I've got some strips of fabric.
13:49I'll press them onto the glue.
13:50I need to make sure it's secure.
13:52Now I just have to slip the iPad into them.
13:55This will hold it in place.
13:56Pretty smart, isn't it?
13:58I love this channel!
14:01David?
14:02What's going on?
14:03Uh-oh!
14:04I better hide this!
14:06Hmm…
14:06So interesting…
14:08Everything seems to be fine…
14:11Good boy!
14:12Keep up the good work!
14:14Sure thing!
14:15Now where was I?
14:17That's so funny!
14:20Woah!
14:21Look at her bouncing that basketball!
14:23She's really good at dribbling!
14:26Look!
14:26She's taking a shot!
14:29No way!
14:30The ball rolled right over to me!
14:32Now's my chance!
14:33I can be a basketball star too!
14:35Uh…
14:36What the heck is she doing with my ball?
14:38Yeah!
14:39Check out these killer baller moves!
14:41What the…
14:42Oh no!
14:43Here she comes!
14:43I'm taking the shot!
14:45Here it comes!
14:46Yes!
14:48It wasn't even close!
14:50Anyway, this is my ball, so that's enough out of you.
14:53Find something else to do.
14:55What?
14:56Why does she have to be so mean?
14:57She thinks she's so good just because she can actually play basketball.
15:02Hey, look at this!
15:03I can definitely use this!
15:04Let me just set out this piece of cardboard!
15:06And now it's time to get crafty!
15:08I'll just put a line of hot glue down the tube just like this,
15:11and then I can press it to this flat piece on the ground.
15:14And then I'll attach these little strips in a sort of V-shape.
15:18The other end of the tube is going right into this hole I cut in the box.
15:21Next up, a hoop!
15:22Because you can't really play basketball without one.
15:25I'll use this plastic bag as a net.
15:27I'll just have to snip off the bottom though so the ball falls through.
15:32My basketball is totally deflated.
15:34But hey!
15:35Cardboard can fix that too!
15:37All right!
15:38Time to practice my b-ball skills so I can get better!
15:41Yes!
15:42My first basket on my new setup!
15:43It's working!
15:44Another basket!
15:45Woo!
15:46I'm the best!
15:51What time is it?
15:53Oh no!
15:54I've overslept!
15:55I better grab my things!
15:56I need a better alarm.
15:59Hold on…
16:02I didn't do my homework!
16:04This needs to be quick!
16:07Oh, this looks tough…
16:10Should I just guess?
16:11I might get lucky!
16:13Okay, that'll do!
16:14Let's go!
16:18Huh?
16:19I'm stuck!
16:21What the?!
16:22I'll just give it a pull!
16:24C'mon!
16:24Let go!
16:26Give me my skirt back!
16:30WOOOOOOAAA!
16:32Phew!
16:33Luckily the couch was here.
16:35I'll try and unravel it.
16:37That's better.
16:38I need to fix that screw.
16:40I don't want to tear my clothes.
16:42Hmm.
16:43Oh, my hair scarf!
16:44This might fix it!
16:45This will be fun!
16:48I'll place some padding on the stool.
16:51Then I'll drape my scarf over it.
16:53I'll turn the stool upside down and tie the scarf underneath it.
16:56I need it to be tight and pinch the fabric.
17:00Okay, let's turn it the right way up!
17:02It needs a little more work.
17:04I'll staple the center of the padding.
17:06Then add more staples to each side.
17:08There!
17:09What a difference!
17:10It looks a lot classier!
17:12And it won't snag my clothes!
17:14Ooh, it's nice and soft!
17:16Oh!
17:17School!
17:18I don't have time to sit around!
17:22Vroom vroom vroom!
17:24I'm totally gonna win this race!
17:26No one can stop me now!
17:28Bye, Susan!
17:29I'll see you for lunch next week!
17:31Gosh, what a fun afternoon.
17:33It's always nice hanging out with friends.
17:37Mom put her car keys right over there!
17:39Well, I guess I better start getting dinner ready.
17:42What if I…
17:44Just sneak a little closer.
17:46She can't see me behind these flowers.
17:49Hm.
17:49What was that noise?
17:51It sounded suspicious.
17:53Huh.
17:53No one's there.
17:54Time to switch from flowers to this bigger fern!
17:57Yoink!
17:57Tip toe, tip toe, tippy toe!
17:59I'm here!
18:00I got the car keys!
18:02Wow.
18:03Real keys!
18:04Haha!
18:05Time to drive a real car!
18:07Woo!
18:07Best day ever!
18:09Ugh.
18:09Let me go!
18:10I wasn't driving that fast!
18:12Ma'am?
18:13Are these yours?
18:14Oh no!
18:15Not my baby!
18:16And not my car!
18:18Ugh, okay.
18:19I just need to do something else to get my car racing fixed.
18:21I've got this piece of cardboard, so let me cut out some shapes.
18:24And now it's time to add some glue on top like this.
18:27And then the bottom.
18:28I'm gonna stick another matching piece on top.
18:30Good.
18:31And now I'll just do the same thing with the glue as before.
18:33Adding a third piece on top to do it.
18:36This one has no hole in the middle.
18:37What's the next step?
18:38More glue, of course!
18:40And then putting another piece of cardboard on that one, too!
18:43There we go!
18:43That should finally be enough layers for this project!
18:46Now it's time to add some paint, because that's the most fun part!
18:49I really love this orange color!
18:51It's so bright and pretty!
18:53And done!
18:54I'm putting a foam case in there!
18:55I measured beforehand, so it's a perfect fit!
18:58We've got more cardboard pieces and more glue now!
19:01And of course we'll be putting them together for more layers!
19:03This next part is a bit tricky, because I want this piece glued at an angle like so.
19:08And then I just need for it to dry.
19:10Once it does, though, I can paint it!
19:12Time to put it all together!
19:13It'll just slide in place with this battery!
19:16Ta-da!
19:16I made my own steering wheel holder for my phone!
19:20Yeah!
19:21I'm in first place!
19:22No one can catch me!
19:23This is the best game ever!
19:25And the best steering wheel, too!
19:29Here are your test results.
19:31Ooh!
19:31I know I'll have an A!
19:33What the?
19:34An F?
19:35No way!
19:36I got an A?
19:37Wow!
19:38I'm smarter than the nerd!
19:40Cool!
19:41Aw, don't be sad.
19:43I can fix this!
19:44Trust me!
19:44I'll cut out the bad grade!
19:46You really got an F?
19:48Ha!
19:48Sorry!
19:49That was uncalled for.
19:50Okay!
19:51Now I'll replace it with an A!
19:52Now I'll join the paper together with correction fluid!
19:55What are you doing?
19:57Just wait and see!
19:58Okay!
19:59All done!
19:59Here you go!
20:00Huh?
20:01Wait!
20:02I'm smart again!
20:03Thanks, David!
20:04That's so smart!
20:06Wait!
20:06This is the wrong test paper!
20:09I know!
20:11I guess I got an A again.
20:13So I'm not smart after all, huh?
20:16Nope!
20:17The door!
20:20Aw, they're beautiful!
20:22What a nice surprise!
20:24Oh, there's a note!
20:25They're from Kevin!
20:28He's such a sweetheart!
20:30Where should I put them?
20:32Ah!
20:33Steady!
20:34No!
20:35What a catch!
20:36This is a better vase!
20:38Let's try this again!
20:42Seriously?!
20:42Why does this keep happening?
20:45This is more like it!
20:48That's it!
20:49I give off!
20:50Flowers are overrated!
20:53Unless…
20:53These stones might help!
20:56I have a great idea!
20:58Let's do this!
20:59I'll add the stones to the vase!
21:01Now I'll pour in this magical potion!
21:03Just kidding!
21:04It's just a clear liquid!
21:05But it'll keep my flowers in the vase!
21:08Okay!
21:08I think I put my flowers in now!
21:11Aw, they look so pretty!
21:13I'm so lucky!
21:14I'm glad I thought of that!
21:16The vase looks great with the flowers!
21:18I need to thank Kevin!
21:25Party time!
21:26Dance party!
21:27Let's live it up!
21:28Phew!
21:29It's hot in here!
21:30I could use a break, I think!
21:32No room on that couch!
21:33And those bean bags are taken!
21:35Well, I guess I'll just try and make some space for me!
21:38Hey, come on!
21:40What are you doing?!
21:41We're sitting here!
21:42Oh!
21:43Ah!
21:43Shoot!
21:44I fell down!
21:45Guess there's not room for me after all!
21:47Hey, what's going on over there?
21:48Oh shoot, this bottle's empty!
21:50Better get rid of it!
21:51That whole trash bin is full of empty soda bottles!
21:54Just need to dig a bit more!
21:56Yes!
21:57I totally have a great idea!
21:59I've got all these bottles in a cardboard box!
22:01I've just gotta organize them so they'll all fit in here!
22:04Perfect!
22:05Now I can just close this box up!
22:07And then I'll tape it shut to make sure it stays closed too!
22:09Hey!
22:10Toss me that pillow, will ya?
22:11Thanks!
22:12This'll work perfectly!
22:13And then a little rug over the top too!
22:15And then size!
22:17Now to put my sewing skills to the test!
22:19Got it!
22:20Just gotta stitch these little rugs together now!
22:23Okay, that should be good enough!
22:24Let me just snip off the extra!
22:26All right, I totally made my own seat!
22:28And it looks cute too!
22:30Time to get this and me back to the party!
22:33I just love my little seat so much!
22:35But I need a snack too!
22:37Let's see…
22:38Do I want something to eat or something to drink?
22:40Something to drink for sure!
22:42Hey!
22:43That guy totally just took my seat!
22:45Ugh!
22:46Oh thanks!
22:47I do want a trip!
22:49Did I miss anything?
22:51No!
22:52The movie's just starting!
22:53Just give me a minute!
22:54I'm trying to get comfortable!
22:56That's better!
22:59Is that a hole?
23:03How did that happen?
23:05I'm sorry!
23:06I'll take that blanket!
23:08It's okay!
23:09I've got it!
23:11Oh, yeah…
23:12You do…
23:20Hold on…
23:21Where?
23:22I mean…
23:24Sure…
23:24Okay, this should help.
23:26I'll use this to cover the hole.
23:28See?
23:29Oh right!
23:29That's what you were doing!
23:31I totally knew that!
23:32I'll be right back!
23:34I have an idea!
23:35And I need this box of old t-shirts!
23:38I'll lay this t-shirt flat on the table.
23:40Now I'll cut across the middle of it.
23:42I'm cutting through both sides of the t-shirt,
23:44but I'm not cutting all the way across.
23:47I want to cut around the image.
23:49Okay, that looks good.
23:50I just need this part.
23:53Now I'll lay it down on the surface.
23:55I'll do the same with other t-shirts,
23:57until I have a lot of images.
23:59Then I'll stitch them together.
24:01It makes a patchwork blanket!
24:02Look what I have!
24:04Ooh, that looks super cozy!
24:07Wow, I love it!
24:08Let's snuggle up!
24:10The images are so cool!
24:12I made it myself!
24:14You deserve this!
24:16I love our movie nights!
