 It's time! It's time! It's time! For what? For the Giraffe Show! Sit back and relax, we'll sing chat and laugh, oh, on the curious Giraffe Show! Wow, welcome back everybody! And our curious giraffe, the big giraffe is George and our little giraffe is Jeanette. And George is very quiet, but with his long neck and big eyes, he likes to watch and he's curious when he watches. And this is Jeanette and I like to talk all the time and I'm going to introduce everybody, but she needs help. And so Grace is going to help her introduce who's who on the curious crew today. Hi Bella. Dorothy. Hi Dorothy. What's your name? Grace. Oh good, hi Grace. And thank you. Do you want to keep Jeanette and she can sing with you? Okay, so we're going to start with our curious giraffe song. We're going to start with the eagle verse. And then Joanie, shall we do the zebra verse? Do you like that one? And then we'll do the new verse. And you'll find out what today's show, what the giraffes are thinking about. Yeah. Right. And that'll be easy. But this one, if you know it, sing along. If not, just listen and enjoy. Okay? But try the motions when we get there if you want to. Or you can watch. Giraffe looked over at eagle and said, Why was I born to walk? Why were you born to fly? Eagle just shrugged and gave a high five. Yeah, we all share one big sky. Oh yeah. Share one big sky. Share one big sky. Give the world a big high five. Yeah. We're different and we know it but we all get along. Cause we can all share and we can all care. We're different but we all belong. We'll do the verse about the zebra. Giraffe looked over at zebra and said, Why do I have spots? Why do you have stripes? Zebra just shrugged and said, We come in all types but we all share one big sky. Oh yeah. Share one big sky. Share one big sky. Give the world a big high five. Yeah, we're different. Cause we can all share and we can all care. We're different but we all belong. Looked over at his mother. Actually, why don't you listen while I'll sing it so it's clearer. Giraffe looked over at his mother and coughed, I sure am unhappy with this awful sore throat. His mother said, Good habits are an antidote. Underneath this one big sky. Oh yeah. Share one big sky. Share one big sky. Give the world a big high five. Yeah, we're different. Cause we can all share and we can all care. We're different but we all belong. So what's the giraffe thinking about today? The last verse. What's he thinking about? He gets better. He's not feeling well. It's like how difficult he's sad because he's sick. Yes, exactly. You sort of do? I have a cold and because of me eating so much spicy food. Okay, so I'm glad you figured out why. And that's what you can do. You can listen to your body and find out what makes it feel good and what makes it feel not so good. I think I've been talking too much today. Sometimes, sometimes that's the reason. Or not enough water. Or not enough water. Oh my goodness. Like Jeanette, she talks a lot too. Oh Jeanette, do you ever get a sore throat? Yeah, it's all the time. Especially from talking too much, which I normally do. Okay Jeanette, so listen for a few minutes, okay? And Jonah, can you tell us about what you're holding? What do you have? A baby giraffe and a big giraffe. And I thought they would represent a child going to a grown-up parent and saying, I don't feel so good. And what's that the big giraffe doing to help the baby feel better? Giving it a kiss, giving it some love. Okay, so we're going to sing a song about not feeling so good. And this one, that's funny. What was funny? Okay, do you want to tell us all? The kissing part. The kissing part. Okay, yeah, well that's one way to get better. But will it make you all the way better? Not usually. Not usually, but it can, maybe your heart, it can make your heart feel better. Sometimes if your heart feels better, you can really handle even if your throat or something else is not feeling good. Should I have something else after that? Oh sure, that's a great idea. Would anyone else? Me? Okay, how about, there you go. Okay, thank you. And after a little while, Bella, thank you. Grace, that makes my heart feel good just to hear that. Let's see. She's biting down. Okay, so are you ready for this echo song? Yep. Okay. I feel sick. I feel sick. I feel sick. It's no fun. It's no fun. My throat hurts. My throat hurts. My nose runs. My nose runs. My nose runs. My head aches. My head aches. My eyes burn. My eyes burn. I'm so very, very sad I got the germ. Catch a cough. Catch a cough. Catch a sneeze. Catch a sneeze. Use your arm. Use your arm. Use your arm. Use your sleeve. Use your sleeve. Catch those germs. Catch those germs. Before they leave. Before they leave. Then wash your hands with lots of lather, pretty please. Yes, wash your hands. Wash your hands. And wash again. And wash again. Get more soap. Get more soap. And wash again. Wash again. Stop those germs. Stop those germs. Don't let them in. Don't let them in. Cause I sure don't want to. Cause I sure don't want to share this with my friends. So, you want to keep your germs for your body and not share them with your friends. Okay? That's what they're trying to say. But you still want to get better yourself. Yes. Even like when you say don't come to school. Like you try to make like when the school says like if you get sick like it's almost like they're saying don't come in even when you're sick because then you don't want to get your friends sick and everybody sick. And they want the school to be a healthy place. I like being sick so I can stay home from school. My class is starting to get whole cold around almost my whole entire class has one now. Oh, okay. Oh no. Well, that's why we're talking. So at school do they have you wash your hands? Yes. Yes. But we're still having our cold go around. I know. You're still. So we're going to talk about lots of ways to take care of ourselves. So here's the song that I wrote when I was working in the school. It happens to be your school. And this is yes. So at our school we have three rules. Let's sing it twice. So should I show the motions that I remember? Well, let's sing it once and then show the motions. And then Bella can pass the draft. Oh, Bella, are you ready to pass the draft? Not yet. Maybe next time, Lily, okay? Let's do one more song for Bella's turn. At our school we have three rules. They are simple. They are cool. We just have to take good care of ourselves, each other, and all that we share. The moves they go, at our school we share. Nice. So you all try that. It's kind of like it's symbolizing everybody around us and everything. And back to that exact same word, share. That's right. And good noticing there. Okay, so try it. If you want to try the motions with grace, watch grace, and try singing it one more time. At our school we have three rules. They are simple. They are cool. We just have to take good care of ourselves, each other, and all that we share. Yeah, I used to say it at the end. Yeah. So now do you want to talk about some of the ways you take care of yourself, either to get better from being sick or to try not to get those germs from all your many friends? Bella. You should probably stay home so all your other friends don't get the germs that you have. So the first thing is protect your friends by staying home if you're not well. Okay, what else? That's actually very nice. Was that what you were thinking, Lily? That's a nice thing. That's a nice thing. That's a question. Okay. Why do you have like the C, the G, and like that? Oh, these letters? Yeah. Those are the notes. And the one, the two, and the three. Those are like the three rules that we have. The one is we have to take good care of ourselves. And the second one is we have to take care of each other. And then the third one is that we have to take care of all that we share. Yes. Like all of the things that we have in the school and like pretty much everything. Okay. And the C and the G are the chords that I play. This is a C. I have a little bit of dentism. Yes, Bella. Why are they all just tiny? All that we share because sometimes even Dorothy makes mistakes. And when I was writing the song, I left out one word. So I had to get a thinner marker and put in the little word. All that we share. Okay. Bella, now could you please pass the giraffe and let Lily have a turn. Okay. So here's a happy song about ways to be healthy. And the first way is eight hugs a day. Let's give ourselves eight hugs. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Okay. So we're going to... I did ten on accident. Ten? Did we answer ten? We got an extra. I did seven, nineteen. Seven, eighteen. I thought that means we'll be extra healthy. Okay. And then you need ten hours of sleep. And you can pretend to take a little nap. We won't take a real nap. Or just pretend. Three good meals. Show me eating three good meals. Exercise and take a nap. Quick little rest. And don't forget some time to play. Okay. Lily, you ready? Eight hugs a day. Remember what the doctors say. Ten hours of sleep. Three good meals a day. Exercise and take a nap. And don't forget some time to play. Eight hugs a day. Hugs a day. Remember what the doctors say. Eight hugs a day. Okay. Those are good medicine. So, I like this word exercise. That's a way to stay healthy. Who has a kind of exercise that they like? Jonah? Playing baseball together. Playing something with someone else that's active. Levi, did you have an idea? Jumping jacks. Jumping jacks. That gives your whole body. Or playing soccer. And playing soccer. Excellent. Bella? I do ballet, so I think about doing some splits. And doing some splits too? That's a big stretch, isn't it? That one I never quite could do. I can do it all the way, all three ways. Do you want to demonstrate? This way is one of them. Wow. Okay. And then the other way is the next way. Okay, but turn around so people over there can see. That's great. Yep. Three directions. Wow. It's like we do it like that, but one knee is banded. To stretch your body until you're ready. And then the other one is straight. Wow. Okay. So ballet is one of your favorites. How about you, Lily? I like... Turns in ballet. Because we go to different ballet classes. Okay. Great. Do you want to show it or not? Would you like to show it or not? No. Okay. I'm doing a certain stretch of soccer like before we do it. It's like it's like, it's called the pigeon. Oh, I don't know that much. It's like you go like you put your foot out and like this. Wow. Look at that stretch, the pigeon. Just playing soccer, generally. And playing soccer definitely exercises your whole body. The running part is hard. When you run and run and run and run. The goal is the hardest. Well, definitely. And everybody works together. I used to, I do still love swimming for an exercise. Swimming is really fun. Biking for an exercise. I haven't used it in a while because we have got a huge hill at our house. So like as soon as you come out, it's like really steep. And so like trying to get up it is like three, four times as long than going down it. So that's the thing about exercise is choosing something you can do with what you have. And on that steep hill, that's tricky. Yes? Did you want to say something? Also like in other sports, like swimming as you said, like your legs do get tired because they're like really straight. Like the competitions, your legs have to be really straight to go faster. Because you get more power that way. Exactly. Lily. Didn't we ask the people that are watching us on TV what their name is? Oh, that's hard to do from here, but that's very nice. The curious Jeanette and Lily are wondering who's watching us. And if ever you want to write us at amherstmedia.org, please do and let us know who's watching. Jonah, did you want to say something else about an exercise? Yeah. Okay. Like your face underwater. That takes getting used to. Yeah, eventually you get used to it, but it is hard for a while. Yes. But you can just swim with your head up when you're swimming instead of in the water. You can choose. For me it's easier to stick my head up instead of down. Okay, so she feels the same way. So she keeps her head up. And sometimes if you lie up and like do backstroke. Oh, and you can have your face up and do backstroke. I like to swim underwater sometimes. Okay. But sometimes I like to swim over. Okay. I think under I go a little faster. Yeah. That would be interesting. It's more surprising like if you're trying to go to the water and then they're just like in one place, you're like, boo, and you're like, ah, where did you come from? Oh my goodness. Okay. Um, I just want to show something that I like to do because I can do it every season inside or out. I love hula hoop eggs. Do you love hula hooping? I love hula hooping too, but this one is so big that I don't think we can use it here. But I just wanted to show you that it's an all season kind of exercise. So shiny. And they come in all sizes and weights. I love this one. It feels just perfect. Okay. But we, we can't wait. We might try with this one. I know the hula hoop. What? I know the tiniest. That's the tiniest? This is medium. And that's medium. And this is a pyramid. It's very hard, but our stage is so little. Does anybody think they could safely do it? Me? I could do this one. Can we scoot back? Well, let's start from the youngest to oldest that wants to try. Mommy, I'm just here. All right. Wait, you and Bella might be the same. How old are you, Jonah? Five. And how old are you? You're both five. So let's each take a turn. Okay. So, Jonah, you're on the end. How about, can you scoot back a little bit? Jonah, Bella, me. Jonah, which one, you want to try this one? That one. Okay. Go ahead. How about give the little giraffe family to, yeah, to Levi. There you go. Okay. Go ahead, Jonah. You want to give it a try? Can I get off right now? Stand here in the middle, please. No, no, please stay right there. Turn around. That's it. There you go. Give it a try. And then the next person can try. That might be a little big for you. You want to try this one? Okay. Turn around. That's it. Good try. Everybody clap. Excellent. Bella, do you want to give it a try? Okay. Bella's going to give it a try. Jonah, thank you for being the first one. It's kind of easy. Remember your audience is watching from this place. Okay. It's kind of like hard and easy at the same time. It's both, isn't it? Yeah, because first it's like hard and then it's easy. Thank you, Bella. Good try. Lily, would you like to try? It's hard to have, like, not hit any people. I know. That's why I wasn't sure we were going to do it. Okay. Give us the medium one. You want to try it, Lena? No. Which? Here. Can you do this? Thank you. No. I don't want to hit you. Face the other one. I know. Here. You want to try it? Yeah. You might need more space. There you go. Good. All right. Grace, I think you need one that weighs more. There you go. Look. I'm going to keep it up because it's so, like, not weighted. It is a very light one, which is why it was so hard. Okay. Everybody clap for Grace. Thank you. You know what? Everybody. I think we all did really well. Everybody did their best try. Okay. Thank you, people. Yeah. And that's all I wanted to do was to say, let's try different kinds. Okay. So another way that we can be healthy, besides exercising, three good meals a day. And I want to do a quick, shorter version of achendrum because we're going to name some healthy fruits and vegetables. So, achendrum. Let me just see if anybody, you had a turn, right, Lily? Yeah. Levi or Jonah would either of you like a turn? Can you pass that to Jonah? Okay. So, there is a man who lives on the moon, on the moon, on the moon. There is a man who lives on the moon, and his name is achendrum. And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle. He played upon a ladle, and his name is achendrum. Yes. There's the moon in that song too. And like he had ladle. So, here's the ladle. And you can have a turn to play, and then each verse will move along. Can you do any beat you want? Sure. Sure. Absolutely. Let's do some interesting. Okay. Let's sing. Let's go on to beat. We don't have too much time. Let's go ahead, and his head was made up. What's a fruit or vegetable? Raise your hand so we can get each person a turn. Okay, Bella, what's a fruit or vegetable his head could be made of? Apple. Okay, you all sing while I draw. Or, Levi, would you like to be our artist or not? Or do you want to wait and... I? Okay, come on up, and just try to get the apple drawn in one quick verse. And his... Let's see, I'll play. Okay. And his head was made of an apple, of an apple, of an apple. Nice. And his head was made of... And what was his body made out of? Yes? Um, broccoli. Broccoli. Good luck drawing that. And his body. Now he's going to have a body of broccoli. And his body was made of broccoli, of broccoli, of broccoli. And his body was made of... Wow, he's awesome. Okay, pass on the ladle. And how about his arms? Maybe his arms were made of carrots. Carrots, okay, we've got it. The little stems have the same. Great. And his arms were made of carrots, of carrots, of carrots. Okay, pass the ladle. Yes, his legs were made of fruit or vegetable? Celery. Here we go, celery. And his legs were made of celery, of celery, of celery. And his legs were made of... And his name was Acondrum. If we had more time, we'd sing every part, but would you draw a happy face of a healthy Acondrum from eating fruits and vegetables? Very nice. Awesome. Thank you. Can I draw one? Sure. And then we're going to finish with our last song. And maybe that's very nice. And everybody, thank Levi for drawing our Acondrum at you. I'm going to show it to our audience at home. That is an awesome Acondrum. Levi wanted to turn to play the drum, the ladle. Do you want to do the rhythm for us? Exercise your body. This is our last little stretch. Everybody stand up. We're going to stand up. Yes, what's the exercise here? Something that's fine in this little space. Doing this. Okay, so in place away from... Okay, here we go. Exercise your body. Exercise your mind. Learn about the world around an exercise mind. Exercise your body. Exercise your heart. Learn about the world around an exercise smart. Keep singing, keep looking up. Keep asking questions and never give up. Keep singing, keep looking up. Keep asking questions and never give up. Okay, thank you. Thank you. See you next time.
