 It's time. It's time. It's time. For what? Awesome, welcome back everybody. All right, so we're gonna remember who the curious giraffes are. Now the clap changes. That's right. I see some of you doing it. We go lap, lap, clap, clap, clap. Flap, flap, flap. All right. Here we go. George, your giraffe was curious, curious about the world. And so he was determined to find a boy or girl who would listen to his questions that were puzzling his mind. The who, the what, the when, the where, the how, and the why. Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh. Ge-nac giraffe was curious, curious about the world. And so she was determined to find a boy or girl who would listen to the questions that were puzzling her mind. The who, the what, the when, the where, the how, and the why. Huh, the kids were fascinated by the curious giraffes. Sometimes they made them wonder, sometimes they made them laugh. Sometimes they made them think of things, questions on their mind. The who, the what, the when, the where, the how, and the why. Right, so I even got mixed up. So sometimes they made them wonder, sometimes they made them laugh. Sometimes they too had questions that were puzzling their minds. The who, the what, the when, the where, the how, and the why. Alright, well thank you. And yes, would you hold up Jeanette? And now Bella is going to help us know who's who on the Curious Crew today. What's your name? What's your name? Levi. What's your name? Sheahen. What's your name? Brendan. What's your name? Nea. What's your name, Bella? Alright, nice. Thank you. And what's my name? Dorn. Very good. Excellent. Good. Okay, so Brendan, would you show us what you brought today? I have brought a puzzle globe, basically a fish and wildlife and ocean, couple dolphins, fish, coral reef, clownfish, stuff like that. And it's all hollow inside. And it basically has been built up by spiraling around. These are all puzzle pieces. Wow. That's really cool. They're all spiraled around up to the top. Good job. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, seriously, I had never seen one of these till Brendan showed me this one. So that's a hint about what today's show is about. So let's sing the Curious Giraffe song and the last verse will help us know between what Brendan brought in and what the giraffe is wondering about today. Okay, so we're going to start with giraffe looked over at the eagle. Ready? 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. Hey, 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 all know about. We all get along because we can all share and we can all care. We're different but we all belong. Giraffe looked over at the earth and said it's a very special planet with all kinds of living things. The earth smiled. Yes. So keep it green and green and we'll 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 about. We all get along because we can all share and we can all care. We're different but we all belong. Who could say what are they curious about today? Shian, what do you think? Why are we all different? Oh, that's a really good guess because that is definitely, they're always asking questions about that. Well, yes, ma'am? How we should take care of our earth because it says, yes, keep it blue and green which means keep it nice and like green means like keeping the planet, have a lot of trees and plants and keeping it nice and green. So taking care of the diversity that's on the earth. Wonderful. Yes. Leave them. Exactly. Exactly. We can see the colors better if we take care of it. I think the blue is the ocean and the green would be the land. Yeah. The plants. Yes. Yes, come on. They might be saying, why are people just starting to fight? This doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense, does it? Usually if we pay attention to how each other feels, we don't need to fight, right? And that's the way I like to live. Yes, Brendan. I'm curious about why people get old. Oh. You know what? That is a fascinating question. And Brendan, I am thinking about new programs. And so I'm going to put that back here to think about and really, truly, Brendan, I will, the giraffes and I will work on that topic. So for me, I'll tell you, all of you have touched on it. I was thinking that in April is a special day that is called Earth Day about caring for the planet. So that's why I asked Brendan to bring in his beautiful earth puzzle, Globe, and I wanted to sing this song. Have any of you ever heard the song, This Pretty Planet? Yes. Yes and no. Okay. So this song was written by Tom Chapin and he said we could use it on our show. So it goes like this. If you know it, join in with me, but otherwise we'll sing it a few times, okay? This pretty planet is spinning to stay Your whole gentle blue giant spin us around Now very gently. Gentle blue giant spin us around How do you feel when you sing that? Good. She is? Kind of peaceful. Kind of peaceful and good. So my next question is, do you have a favorite place that comes to mind when you think about this pretty planet? One. Okay, yes. Hawaii. Hawaii. What do you picture when you think of Hawaii? Well, I picture me at this beach in Pahia called Baby Beach. It's really awesome. Wow. So you got to be there. Wonderful. And justice. Trader Joe's. Trader Joe's. And why do you think of Trader Joe's? It's fun and it's on our planet. All right. That's a fun idea, Brendan. I think also just to hint I'm asking you kind of why you thought that Hawaii, about Hawaii because I think that she thought that the guitar sounded kind of like a ukulele. Oh, maybe it tied in with Hawaiian music. That's a cool idea. How about anybody have beautiful places around here that you enjoy? A bear's nest. Have you seen a bear's nest? Or to a bear's? Yes. The forest here. The forest here? The same. The same? Yes, Mia? I live close to a waterfall so I like to go there. Waterfalls are special to many people. And I live by the water too. But I can enjoy the beauty anywhere all over the planet. Okay, so this next song is about somebody named Rachel. And let's see. I guess we'll sing the story song. The chorus goes, Rachel, Rachel, the songbirds sing. May there never be a silent spring. And she is someone who... Anyway, the song will tell the story some and then we'll talk about it, okay? A child named Rachel. Love. She walked along the shoulder sing. A silent spring. She'll learn nature. And listen to its sound. Rachel, the songbirds sing. Rachel became a scientist. Nature in plain words for me and you. A silent spring. Dangerous for me. The songbirds do. A silent spring. This is a true story that a child just enjoyed nature. Enjoyed the birds, enjoyed the sounds. And she grew up to be a scientist and a writer. I mentioned you might like to be a writer. And then she made a connection. They were trying to control the bugs. But if the bugs, which are food for the birds, the bugs get sick, what happens to the birds? The birds get sick. They get sick, they die. May there never be a silent spring. If the bugs die or all get eaten, then there won't be any sounds of the bugs. And if the birds get hurt or die, there won't be any singing. Yes. So she wrote about it and said, everybody pay attention. I've noticed there are not as many bird songs. There are not as many bug sounds. But we've got to change. And she helped them realize. So let's see. Maya, would you come over and get George's fact for us? This is very strong Velcro. You have to sort of have strong muscles to do that. Okay. Okay, and you can take that back. Okay, I'll keep this. And you take the paper and go over and open it up and read it in a loud, clear voice. Wait, should I just stand here? Rachel carries some sense of wonder. If I had influence with a good fairy, I should ask that her gift to each child in the world would be a sense of wonder. I don't know. I'll show it to Brendan. Indestructible. That it would last throughout life. A sense of wonder, so indestructible. What do you think, indestructible? Very big word. Yes, Levi? Not like harming. Not harming. Anybody else, Shiam? Unable to be destroyed. Unable to be destroyed. All right, great. And so I'm going to just pass this. Thank you. And so her paper showed the picture of the grown-up Rachel. And I'm just going to, as we get ready for the next song, this is a picture of the little girl Rachel. And I just thought it's hard to see, so I made a little one that you can pass around and take a look at. Okay, so I think it's important to notice what you notice as a child, because you might grow up and it might help the grown-ups. Yes? Did Rachel die? Well, actually, that's a really good question. I think that she did, but I will have to look that up later. I think she was a little bit ahead of my generation. But I have to look that up. That's a great question. She might have. We do. That's a life cycle. But she made her life count and she made the world a better place. Just as Brandon said, why do people get old? Like, people get old and then they die, so... Yeah. Yeah. You can keep it. Keep it. Okay? And... Okay. Oh, I forgot to tell you who wrote that Rachel song. My friends John Keenan and his wife Joanne Wilson Keenan. And they learned about Rachel and said, wouldn't a song be a great way to share about her wise learning? So this song, Walk Lightly on the Earth, is written by my friend Pam Duncan. And if you... Let's see. Let's just walk with our hands, okay? Walk and walk lightly as we sing this song. I don't think we had a tiny man that could walk on my little globe. That would be... You know what you could do, Brandon? You could show us with light fingertips on that beautiful globe. Okay, here we go. But the rest of you could walk gently on your lap with your hands. Walk lightly on the earth. My friend walked lightly on the earth. Walk lightly on the earth. People can do wondrous things with dreams that touch the skies, symphonies, discoveries, enriching... Walk lightly on the earth. My friend walked lightly on the earth. Walk lightly on the earth. And the last time, we're going to change the words right at the end. Walk lightly on the earth. My friend walked lightly on the earth. Prints light as air walk lightly. Okay, with carbon footprints light us in here. Brandon? Carbon is basically one matter of air, one ingredient with air. Okay, carbon is in here. I think hydrogen and oxygen. Carbon is something that comes out of the ground and takes up a lot of energy. Keep exploring that idea, Brandon. Carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide. We exhale carbon dioxide. Very good. See, it's in the air. You're absolutely right. I knew you had... That's exactly right. And I wasn't thinking about that. But they say for us to use things that have less carbon and how to take care of the planet is taking care of what's here. So how about the water? This is a fun one. And when we do the shut off the water, don't let it run. Leave a little water for everyone. Turn off the faucets when you are done. I want you to pretend to turn off two faucets when we get to the chorus, okay? Do a couple verses of this because we want to get to other songs too. Here we go. Shut off the water. Don't let it run. That's the time for me to think. Stop that washing my hands. Here's one. All right. Yes. This one is about an animal that lives in the water. And this is a little manatee that I got on vacation. Now, in the wild, do they wear a nice little sweatshirt? No. No, but it was so cute. And in the wild, they really do look just like that. Big, gray, beautiful, gentle animals. So we're going to sing this song for the world to know that we all can take care of the animals and the water and the land. Here we go. Gentleman. Mary manatee is gentle and she's free. She's trusting you to keep her safe from harm. You can pass it on to the next person, okay? They were here before the dinosaurs. Think back, think back, think back, think back some more. For years and years and years they ate their greens. They did their part to keep the water clean. But when the speed goes speed. So if you're driving slow down, please. And watch out for manatees. Two big flippers all wide tail and back. Help them to get around and get their snack. They love to body surf and barrel roll. At a thousand pounds that's quite incredible. But when a speed goes speed. If you're driving slow down, please. And watch out for manatees. And they grow so very large and round. That some people call them sea cows. I think it's funny but they say it's true. Although I never heard a manatee. But when a speed goes speed. So if you're driving slow down. And watch out for manatees. In nineteen hundred and seventy five. School children got them classified. As in dangerous species they survived. And now they are our joy and pride. But when a speed goes speed. If you're driving slow down. And watch out for manatees. Now you're in the boat going slowly. Looking over the water. And seeing these big beautiful animals. Is gentle and she's. She's trusting you. And keep her safe from harm. Very nice. And this driver over here was showing us how to be a slow safe driver. Very nice. So I also wanted to share that this. These children didn't have to wait to grow up. They organized together. They wrote letters. And the state of Florida protected. The manatees that live there. Okay. So now we're going to play a fun game. That Sarah Pertle made up. Brendan I think if you bring your globe. How about set it. Carefully either here or there. Because we're going to stand up and move a little bit. We're going to. And let's see I'm going to let Jeanette. Think home. Put Jeanette. Over here. And you all stand up. Everybody stretch. We got a little accent here. I'm going to move my chair. Here we go. Okay. So. You all have heard of the Hokey Pokey right. Okay. Well this is the recycle. Hokey Pokey. Okay. So. You're going to pretend to pick up a can. So. You put the can. And you put it in the bin. You grind it down. You do the earth recycle. And you turn yourself around. That's what it's all about. Now kind of bottle. You take the bottle glass. And you melt it down. It makes a new shape. And you mold it till it's earth recycle. And you take your vegetable peels. But not the foil. Turns into the soil. You do the earth recycle. And you turn yourself around. That's what it's all about. Now you're going to tear newspapers. You add the newspapers in. To a chemical bath. You make new. That's what it's all about. It's time for us to say goodbye. So let's come forward to sing. Our song about to keep on singing. Okay. Here we go. Ready. Five. Four. Five. Four. Three. Two. One.
