 Hi, welcome back to the Curious Giraffe Show. Hi, I'm glad to be here. I'm glad you're here too. And look, we've brought back a lot of our friends. And I see George still has his mask on. Why does he still have his mask on? Because he's practicing how he needs to be out in the world. But here, with the other stuffed animals, he actually could take it off. Yes, I'm glad I can see my whole face and see your whole face. I do, I miss that too when I'm out in the world, but I know you're under there, just like we know George is under there. Yeah, I'm glad you're here George, with your mask too. Hi Tiger, I'm glad you're here too. Me too. What are we going to do today? Let's sing the Curious Giraffe Song and find out. Giraffe looked over at Dorothy and said, I'm curious what book and song she'll share with us today. Dorothy said, I can help, has lots to say, as we share under one big sky. Oh yeah, share one big sky, share one big sky. Give the world a big five-five. Yeah, we're different and we know it but we all get along because we can all share and we can all care. We're different but we all belong. We're different but we all belong. Yes, we do. And different just makes our world more interesting. I've always liked difference. I notice what's the same, but I notice what's different too, and it just makes life more interesting. So, today's story is called I Can Help and we've seen this author before. David Hyde Castello wrote this book and he wrote the book a few weeks ago about Little Pig and the band. So, here we go. The duck family is together. This one goes out by himself. Uh oh, I'm lost. So, monkey looks out from his spot on the tree and can see far away. Thank you, monkey. The duck mommy and brothers and sisters are so glad to see. I can help. Thank you, giraffe. Can't reach. I can help. How can that little gorilla on the ground help that tall giraffe reach higher? What's gonna happen? Look how strong he is. Thank you, gorilla. I have a splinter. Can help. Thank you, sunbird. I'm tired. I can help. Thank you, elephant. I'm hot and thirsty. I can help. Follow me. Thank you, duck. You're welcome. I'm lost again. We can help. Isn't that an amazing book? How the young animals keep helping each other and bringing them back to their grownups who take care of them. And at the end, they all know we can help each other. It's never just one who is not able to help. It's everybody has a way of helping. So, here's a song I wrote called Can I Help? Oh, and I made up these verses to go with this storybook. When I first wrote the song, I thought about helping around the house, how we can help in our families or help school or wherever we are. But this book gave us so many new ideas about how to help each other that I wrote some verses to go with David Costello's book. Oh, can I help? Can I help you? Yes, you can help. You can. You start to fall. You start to fall. Start to fall. Start to fall. You can like a friend. Can I help? You can help me yourself. Thanks for help. You can help. You can help me take my splinter out. You can help me take my splinter out. Help me take my splinter out. I sure like your help when you offer yourself. Thanks for help. So, his friend said, Can I help? Yes, you can help. You're singing along, everybody. So, I have another song about what could we all people do no matter they're rich or poor. It's cold or somewhere in between or somewhere in between. What are the things we all can do? So, the first thing I thought of is we all can sing. Another thing I thought of was dance. Because even if our legs don't work for some reason, we can make our hands dance or our arms or in our minds we can even dance. Share if we have a little or a lot. We can always share. Always. If there's even only one thing we can share by taking turns. So, we're going today we're going to sing this song and then the last verse we're going to sing we can help. Okay, so let's start with all people can sing. And now all people can sing Set their mighties all free And now all people can sing Release love's energy Now all people can sing They are you, yes no matter How to stand up together and sing Now all people can dance Release love's energy Now all people can share Release love's energy How to stand up together and share Release love's energy One more song that I did not write through the Children's Music Network Wonderful network of songwriters and teachers and families and librarians Just people who enjoy music Good quality music. And this is one of those songs that everybody should be singing. It's called We're Building a Better World I'm going to teach you the sign language for this one. Building a better world We're building a better world We're building a better world One person at a time Okay? We're building a better world We're building a better world We're building a better person Goes round and round and That was really an encouraging show. Thank you, Jeanette. What was encouraging about it? I like that word encouraged. Yes, it makes me feel like I have a part to do but I don't have to do all the parts because everyone will do their part and it made me feel good inside. That's a really nice idea, Jeanette. What did you think, Tiger? Thinking about how, how can I help? Sometimes I feel so little and I'm just not sure how I can help. Well, if you just stay with someone who's helping, maybe you can learn. Yeah, yeah. You help just by being here because you are such a gentle, kind energy. You just make me feel better just being with you. Just being together helps? Yes, just being who you are is the help and as you live every day you will find ways that you can build a better world, a kinder world, a peaceful world and a friendly world. So let's all do that. We all have our part but we're out of time now so let's sing our goodbye song. Keep singing, keep looking up Keep asking questions and never give up Keep singing, keep looking up Keep asking questions and never give up Bye bye, bye bye. See you next time. They are free. Yes, no matter what our background now in every place that we're found we are naming the power to stand up together and sing.
